Reliable … Scalable … Secure … Efficient
Data center planning is one of the most crucial design elements in any modern building project. The cost consequences of business disruption associated with data center failures are such that proper planning, design and coordination are all vital to reducing risk. We manage data center implementation risks through a coordinated interdisciplinary effort between professional mechanical, electrical and fire protection engineers and technology services engineering staff. Experience enables the essential dialogue and interface with our clients’ internal technology resources as we have an intimate understanding of the challenges faced during design, initial launch and maintenance of ongoing operations.
Appropriate “fit for purpose” physical infrastructure must be deployed in a cost effective manner to minimize failure rates and mitigate associated business disruption risks to an acceptable level for the specific client business model. Our experience and integrated design processes reduce risk to the owner’s bottom line in both initial construction and future operation of the data center. We provide the necessary design components and engineering analysis during the planning phase to reduce risk in design, construction, deployment and ultimate operation of the technology center required in today’s networked world.
