Transitional or Interim services are not for every organization, but few are prepared for the sudden departure of a key executive.
While it’s typical for us to provide these transitional services as part of a Data Center Relocation, the services are available to all organizations.
What Problem Are You Trying to Solve?
We don’t pretend to read your mind and prefer to engage in a conversation about the issues that are driving your need for transitional services. Common needs include:
- An unplanned and sudden departure
- A desire for a new direction
- Returning a sense of urgency to organizational priorities
- Fixing long-standing operational or technical issues
- Resolving complexities during a reorganization
- Allowing the search process to find the right permanent candidate
Whatever your reason, the first step is the conversation. Give us a call at 1-877-485-1115 and let us know how we can help.

Data Center relocations can be justified from a number of perspectives. Out of power, out of space, and inadequate cooling are all common reasons for a data center move. But what are the compelling reasons to stay put?
- Lack of a comprehensive data center moving plan. Don’t be rushed into a data center relocation without dedicating adequate resources and time to a detailed moving plan.
- Inadequate attention to solving the cooling problem. Even with all the information about proper hot and cold aisles, dueling CRAC (Computer Room Air Conditioners), and improper return air dynamics, IT staffs still operate inefficient data centers with glaring problems. Seek out a data center audit to ensure easily corrected mistakes get corrected.
- Swinging for the fences with Virtualization. While virtualization can deliver impressive cost savings, it also changes the way your data center operates. Betting that you can completely move to a virtualized platform as the underlying strategy of your data center move without unintended consequences ignores the complexity inherent in the data center.
- Unreasonable construction time lines. It’s rare that a construction completion date is met for a variety of legitimate reasons. The data center commissioning process is often compromised in the rush to recover the time consumed by construction. Delaying the data center move will cost less in the long run than moving into a a new data center that has inadequate soak time and testing.
The decision to relocate your data center should be made carefully. As this video explains, a data center move readiness assessment can make the difference between a successful data center relocation and a fatallly flawed move.
