Advantage Site Program

Communities can better position their industrial sites through a new designation called AdvantageSite. To meet the needs of industry, Alabama’s economic development community is working to designate an inventory of industrial sites with key documentation for accurate, timely project evaluation. This documentation is crucial, as companies have less time and shorter deadlines in which to evaluate sites.  

AdvantageSite is a voluntary program that allows communities to demonstrate due diligence has been done. This does not imply that other properties in Alabama don’t meet the same criteria. It does mean designated sites have undergone a vetting process to show important information about a site is readily available. A site awarded AdvantageSite designation has met standards related to ownership, accessibility, infrastructure, planning and zoning, and environmental and geotechnical due diligence.
