CRITICAL SYSTEMS DESIGN AND COMMISSIONING

Critical systems, which are typically associated with data center facilities, have specialized infrastructure that requires specific design solutions. From new construction, infrastructure upgrades, interior renovations, and retrofitting, we’re here to help.

We also perform commissioning of new equipment installations, and retro-commissioning of re-used and existing equipment for annual maintenance and benchmark testing. Our team of experienced and qualified degreed engineers can perform hands-on critical systems testing; we also offer “clip board” commissioning services, where we can plan and direct another testing firm as a Project Commissioning Authority.

We’re proud to offer these services in partnership with our sister firm, Critical Solutions & Innovations (CS&I), whose staff has more than 25 years of experience in these areas. CS&I has an existing client base of several Fortune 500 Companies, including major financial institutions.
