The subject does not meet WP:NCORP notability criteria required of business organisations. It is also a case of WP:TOOSOON because established in 2017, the company only received media attention that seem to be sponsored by the company after it won a minor road construction contract from a county government. All of the references used in the page are published within a month spanning July and August 2024. That might be an effort just to have a Wikipedia page Seminita (talk) 16:04, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Multiple reliable source from independent secondary reliable sources with significant coverage. [1],[2],[3],[4],[5]and [6] are enough to pass WP:NCORP

The news platforms where these articles are published are reliable sources but the articles themselves are not reliable because they are media campaign orchestrated by the company. It categorically fails [[WP:NCORP]] because all 13 references in the article are on just two topics of discussion and all have same thought flow indicating that the company planted all of them as media statements. All the reference are published between June and August and this article was immediately created. All these here [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] are on the minor road contract the company is handling. These references here [14][15][16][17] are all on single topic of the company pledging to implement the country's new minimum wage.

This article also has the problem of [[WP:TOOSOON]]. Established since 2017, it did not have a single record of project execution and media coverage until June 2024 when it suddenly woke up and acquired tons of media coverage. This company has to demonstrate visibility in the media for a reasonable period of time to show that its notability is not one-off. Seminita (talk) 09:20, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I see press release here. There are no in-depth coverage in reliable sources that are independent. Seminita’s assessment is apt. Best, Reading Beans 10:14, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete: coverage seems to be mostly about one project. Otherwise, I don't see notability. —asparagusus (interaction) ^sprouts! 16:59, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
