Data Center Health Check or Facility Analysis
New Data Center Conceptual Planning
We work with organizations to ensure the robustness of their data centers. Clients tap into our expertise to address the myriad of concerns they might have including site, architectural, mechanical, electrical, fire protection, security, monitoring, maintenance, etc. We can address all disciplines or simply one depending on client needs.
Through data analysis, interviews, and site surveys we develop recommendations based upon risk, code issues, capacity planning, efficiencies, and best practices. Recommendations are prioritized, can be assigned a budget, and a degree of difficulty to implement. Our deliverables provide a management roadmap to improve facility resiliency.
Some clients only require a cursory analysis or simply high-level documentation of their data center assets. We developed the Health Check service to address this type of engagement.
Our Point of View
You know your data centers. Outside help is often required to get people to listen. We leverage our senior level practitioners to have direct conversations with your team that may be unpleasant for you to have.
Most of our clients do not have the time to develop a clear professional looking plan. Challenging status quo is healthy if done in a constructive manner. It also solidifies intent of purpose and resolve.
If your data center is approaching 10 years old, you need to have a plan to address end of life issues, holistically or by system. You need to start early, as this could involve significant capital expense,
We Work Differently
We spend time upfront with our clients iterating on our SOW until you feel comfortable. In addition to empowering our clients to have significant input into the creation of our SOW, it provides an opportunity to see how we work and get to know us. This builds confidence in the relationship and results in a tighter, better financially targeted SOW.
Our clients seek independent advice to solve difficult issues. As a third-party, we are the outside voice and don’t bring organizational bias with us. Fodere’s guidance will always be aligned with your organization’s goals.
