Typical situation no. 17
A 24 MW data center must deliver its first 6 MW data hall to a tenant in ten weeks. The project engineer says everything will be ready. Yet the project director sees 400 open snags, functional tests running late and an operations team barely in place.
WHAT IS BLOCKING
- Level 4 tests, followed by the level 5 integrated systems test, take several weeks and cannot be compressed without risk.
- Many snags concern critical equipment: protection, controls, monitoring.
- The tenant can refuse acceptance or apply penalties if the delivery is not compliant.
WHAT WE DO
- Rapid review of the actual status: snags ranked by criticality, tests completed, documentation.
- Realistic recovery plan, week by week, with the necessary trade-offs.
- On-site presence at key moments: tests, clearing of critical snags, acceptance.
- Preparation of communication with the tenant.
WHAT YOU GET
- An independent status assessment within one week.
- A recovery schedule shared with the contractors.
- A recommendation on the delivery date to announce.
Typical format: Short on-site intervention, then weekly follow-up until delivery. Every assignment is scoped in writing before it starts.
