Global Technology Company
This S&P 500 company retained PlanNet Consulting to develop a data center strategy for its enterprise IT production and disaster recovery locations. PlanNet’s study assessed multiple US markets to determine the most suitable locations and evaluated:
- TCO financial model with capital and operational expenses
- Demand forecast and growth models
- Comparison of greenfield construction and wholesale collocation
- Network latency and cost modeling
- Power rates
- Labor availability and rates
- Location/geography criteria (e.g., disaster potential, vendor support, etc.)
Subsequent to PlanNet’s recommendation and executive presentation, PlanNet was engaged to develop data center basis of design for the new sites.
