Quality Growth Companies Introduces QII to Build Powered Infrastructure for AI Factories and Advanced Manufacturing

Chad Williams launches his next growth platform, applying Infratech Intelligence™ to the needs of the AI-driven economy

OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Quality Growth Companies (QGC) today announced the launch of QII, an Infratech Intelligence™ company built to deliver powered industrial campuses for AI factories, advanced manufacturing, and other energy-intensive operations.

QII is designed for a new kind of demand. As infrastructure and technology converge, the requirements to build at scale have changed. Energy, land, capital, and execution can no longer operate on separate timelines. They must move together from the start.

The company defines this convergence as Infratech™. Infratech Intelligence™ is QII’s model for bringing the right people, plans, and resources together early so complex projects can move with greater speed and certainty.

QII will apply this model through 100MW to multi-gigawatt campuses that align land strategy, grid connection, vertical development, and capital. The company’s Option-Preserving Platform™ helps projects move early while preserving flexibility as customers define power needs and project requirements. The result is a clearer path from site selection to power-on, with greater visibility into where a project can go, what can be built, and how to move forward.

Chad Williams, founder and CEO of QII, has built at this scale before. As a pioneer in digital infrastructure, he helped grow a single site into one of the world’s leading digital infrastructure platforms, valued at more than $60 billion at the time of his departure. QII marks his next chapter and QGC’s next growth platform.

“We helped build one generation of digital infrastructure,” Williams said. “Now the industry requires a different approach. That’s why we built QII. We need to disrupt the model that shaped the past to prepare for the AI factories of the future.”

QII brings together senior leadership across energy, development and construction, supply chain, and capital to help customers and partners understand what is possible and move from planning to delivery.

Rich Voorberg, QII’s Chief Infratech Officer and former President of Siemens Energy North America, leads the company’s energy strategy.

“Energy determines what gets built and when,” said Voorberg. “You can have demand, land, and capital, but without a real path to grid connection, projects stall. QII brings power experience and utility relationships into the process early so customers can understand what is possible, what needs to happen first, and how to move forward with confidence.”

Alongside Voorberg, QII is building its leadership team across the disciplines that determine when complex infrastructure gets delivered. Alex Rose, General Counsel and Chief Commercial Officer and former Kirkland & Ellis partner, oversees legal strategy, partnerships, and transactions. Jeremy Bardin joins as an advisory board member, bringing 37 years of experience, including more than two decades at HITT Contracting as Co-President, advising on governance, delivery frameworks, and execution.

“I’ve always believed a people-first culture is where strong companies begin, and I’m humbled to have Rich, Alex, and Jeremy helping lead this next chapter,” Williams said. “We’re building the right leadership across the business—a team of doers who have delivered complex work with safety as a priority, on time and on budget.”

QII will carry forward the people-first culture that has shaped QGC’s work for decades. Built on a foundation of stewardship of people, that culture reflects Williams’ belief that when a company cares deeply for and supports its people, its people will care for and support customers, communities, partners, and the capital entrusted to the work.
