High Tech and Data Centres

Whole life cost certainty – in particular operational costs – as well as facility resilience and site security are the key factors involved in these highly complex facilities. With the majority of the capital cost to be found in the mechanical and electrical support infrastructure and with the technology as well as the customer IT requirements evolving at a relentless pace, high tech projects require a level of future focussed project, design and cost management like no other.

Pace Project Group staff have significant international data centre Project Management and Contract Superintendency experience on a number of significant high-tech projects including the Telstra Data Centre (Clayton, Melbourne), SQ17 (Wiltshire, UK), Broadoaks Estate (Woking, UK) and Fujitsu STE10 (Stevenage, UK).
