IDC Architects Introduces First-Of-Kind Data Center Site Analysis Model
At a November 29 annual data center industry forum, CH2M HILL’s IDC Architects will introduce a new strategic business planning tool for data center owners believed to be the first of its kind in the industry.
The new IDC Architects Data Center Site Analysis Model has been created to help data center owners more wisely choose locations for new data center developments. The model analyzes prospective sites using a range of objective criteria to minimize the influence of subjective factors that can misdirect a site selection process. The model also forecasts an owner’s costs and long-term economic returns on investment associated with specific prospective sites.
