Our firm has been involved in the design and delivery of Mission Critical infrastructure since vacuum tubes were in use and data was stored on punch cards! Whether your challenges are with High Performance Edge Computing (i.e. HPC, AI Supercomputers), Cloud/ Collocation (Big Data), or various types of Edges (i.e. buffers near your user), our executive architects and engineering team can lead your most complex project to a successful outcome.

We understand that "form must follow function and your business case”, that each data centre is unique. We provide State-of-the-Art technical design and space planning advice; but can also peer review the design of others to help reduce your risks. For owners and developers of data centers, we provide Fast-Track design documentation for and accelerated design delivery.

Our focus is on helping you reduce political, market, financial, and execution risks; while increasing Speed-to-Market for your next Data Centre Expansion, Upgrade, or New-Built. Get in touch with us at +61 2 9955 0637 about our ongoing research projects, or to discuss how we could help you meet your specific commercial objectives.
