Commissioning Solutions

Sprint Internet Data Centers
New York • Boston • Atlanta • Dallas • Denver • Los Angeles • Santa Clara, CA
To ensure Sprint’s newly constructed data centers were completed and functioning on schedule, ViroCon stepped in immediately providing practical and extensive engineering services. The problems were identified and the solutions developed which allowed the centers to open and be productive according to the intended timeline.

Sprint constructed internet data centers in major cities nationwide in multiple phases. All sites included an initial build-out of 15,000 to 30,000 sf of raised-floor space, readily expandable to 75,000 to 100,000 sf. All sites were designed for 50 watts per square foot of floor area initially, with ultimate build-out to 150 watts per square foot.

		Problem Fast Track Yields Fast Problems The facilities were concurrently designed and constructed with a fast track approach. Aggressive design and construction schedules created many issues that jeopardized the completion of the facilities by the required dates.
		Solution Hand’s On Commissioning To allow the fastest possible turnover of each completed facility, these extremely fast-paced projects required our commissioning team to work side-by-side with the contractors, manufacturers and design engineers so that each system could be commissioned and tested as it became available. ViroCon’s hands on engineering efforts expedited project schedules and allowed Sprint’s internet data centers to meet critical “go live” dates. Our team worked to identify problems, develop solutions and coordinate resolutions as they were identified during commissioning. On a nationwide basis, our efforts enabled Sprint to open their data center doors touting zero downtime facilities that worked.
