When Exigent launched its Mission Critical business, it wasn’t just adding another service line — it was making a deliberate move into one of the most demanding segments of the mechanical industry. Data centers, control hubs, operations centers — these are environments where even minutes of downtime carry outsized risks. And they demand a different approach.
That’s why we didn’t just “extend” our platform into this space. We built it intentionally.
At the center of that effort is Brandon Mullins, who joined Exigent Mission Critical with deep experience in this market and a quiet confidence in how to build a business that lasts. From the start, Brandon focused on what matters most: understanding the customer, planning the right growth strategy, and building relationships with operating companies that unlock value across the platform.
Instead of chasing quick wins, Brandon partnered with leaders at ACI and JPG, complementing their deep technical expertise with a focused, data center-specialized sales approach. That collaboration has opened doors to complex mission-critical projects, grown customer trust, and positioned both OpCos — and Exigent — to compete in high-stakes environments.
The results:
- A business line that’s expanding its pipeline, with multiple confidential wins in highly sensitive markets.
- OpCos gaining from a coordinated sales strategy, tailored specifically for mission-critical customers.
- A leadership story that reflects Exigent’s broader playbook: build deliberately, collaborate deeply, and execute with discipline.
Brandon’s journey — from a strong individual contributor to a platform leader — is proof of what’s possible when expertise, intention, and partnership come together.
We’re just getting started. Exigent Mission Critical is now an established part of our platform strategy — and a growing example of how aligned leadership, shared expertise, and a deliberate approach to market entry drive real results.
