Your allies in the design and build of the physical and IT infrastructure

Salute is one of the only dedicated data center teams in the world that can provide a vast range of lifecycle services for each of the four stages – design, build, operate, refresh. Through this knowledge we can act as your allied partners in the build of a physical facility (shell and core), the M&E fit out and IT infrastructure.

"We only work with data centers, which ultimately means our experience can benefit your capital and operational expenditure.”

Mike Jones

EVP Global Operations and CTO

Our responsibility is to help you design for the future

Building data centers is an expensive process

We know how important it is to quickly recoup your return on investment through excellent design, speed of build, space planning, and future-proofing the facility’s infrastructure.

Salute’s design and construction services include:

Planning

From inception through to project execution planning, procurement, and implementation, we will work with you in the effective planning of your data center project.

Commissioning

QA/QC, Factory Witness Testing and Commissioning increase confidence and ensure your data center is ready to perform as intended. These services are available through our Iconicx Services.

Training for operations staff

We’ll train your team on all elements of operational systems including but not limited to Building Management System (BMS), Access Control, Closed-circuit Television (CCTV), Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC), Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), generators and any other equipment and/or systems.

Space planning

We’re experts in floor space, power, and cooling, helping you make the best use of capacity to support critical IT infrastructure.

Asset location

Our operations teams will ensure safe access to equipment so that it is easily maintained.

Asset lifecycle strategies

We will work with you to strategically plan the replacement and restructure of your gray space infrastructure from day one – from acquisition through installation and disposal when the time comes for a refresh or upgrade.

Client success story

Make the right choice from inception – it’s costly otherwise

Salute’s flexible, hybrid model is different than most data center operators. We meld our experience and expertise into the Compass culture, so we’re operating according to the ‘Compass way.’ “Culturally we want to operate as Compass,” explained Salute CEO Jason Okroy. “We want to reflect who they are as a team and what they provide to their customers.”

"Data center builds require significant expenditure upfront. Salute are experts in leading on the efficient and compliant design of our data centers."
