What BLS wages cover: OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. These are straight-time gross wages, not pure base salary or total compensation. Discuss per diem, travel and relocation separately. BLS pay-term definitions.

What the published rows say about Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA data center hiring

BIM Manager maps to Architectural and Engineering Managers, SOC 11-9041. For Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $177,140; the middle half runs from $145,020 to $209,380. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Clarify the systems this hire must own and where design responsibility ends and field support begins. The occupation estimate does not separately price a license, a platform or a travel requirement.

The middle-half spread is $64,360: $32,120 from the 25th percentile to the median and $32,240 from the median to the 75th. The upper interval is wider. Use these points to compare an offer, not to price a junior or senior hire. Percentiles are not experience bands, and this distribution alone does not explain why individual workers earn different amounts.

The local median is $5,870 above the national $171,270 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-9041 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.

Gulfport-Biloxi, MS reports a annual median of $139,730 for this occupation in May 2025. It is one of the two nearest usable metro reference points, measured from the Census area internal point. That is $37,410 below Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA's median.

Baton Rouge, LA reports a annual median of $165,060 for this occupation in May 2025. It is one of the two nearest usable metro reference points, measured from the Census area internal point. That is $12,080 below Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA's median.

The highest exact national industry medians in the loaded SOC 11-9041 rows are Office Administrative Services at $284,860 and Medical and Diagnostic Laboratories at $278,830. These are May 2025 national occupation estimates, not local data center pay. The loaded data has no local industry-by-occupation breakdown, so it cannot rank industries within Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA.

The matched median moved from $167,490 in May 2024 to $177,140 in May 2025: $9,650 higher. Both rows use SOC 11-9041, area 43640 and the same annual basis. This is not adjusted for inflation or annualized, and it does not attribute the change to a particular employer.

OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. This is neither pure base salary nor total compensation. Agree travel, per diem and relocation terms separately. No verified BIM Manager-specific allowance is in this occupation row, so none is added to the figures.

Prefabrication Shop Manager maps to Industrial Production Managers, SOC 11-3051. For Slidell-Mandeville-Covington, LA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $135,900; the middle half runs from $102,170 to $171,120. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Before setting an offer, pin down who owns the field decisions and whether the hire travels. A shared occupation median cannot price that scope for you.

The middle-half spread is $68,950: $33,730 from the 25th percentile to the median and $35,220 from the median to the 75th. The upper interval is wider. Use these points to compare an offer, not to price a junior or senior hire. Percentiles are not experience bands, and this distribution alone does not explain why individual workers earn different amounts.

The local median is $9,840 above the national $126,060 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-3051 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.

OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. This is neither pure base salary nor total compensation. Agree travel, per diem and relocation terms separately. No verified Prefabrication Shop Manager-specific allowance is in this occupation row, so none is added to the figures.
