Expert Data Center Engineering Services for Mission-Critical Infrastructure

End-to-end data center infrastructure consulting from feasibility and design to commissioning and handover across India.

Planning a new data center or upgrading an existing facility? Our multidisciplinary engineering team delivers turnkey project execution, independent PMC oversight, and detailed engineering design for hyperscale, colocation, and enterprise data center projects.

What Are Data Center Engineering and Consulting Services?

Data center engineering services cover the full technical lifecycle of a facility, from site assessment and concept design to detailed engineering, construction supervision, and commissioning. These services ensure a data center meets its required tier classification, power density, cooling capacity, and redundancy standards before going live.

Businesses across India including IT companies in Bengaluru, BFSI firms in Mumbai, and government data centers in Delhi NCR rely on specialized engineering consultants to translate operational requirements into a buildable, code-compliant, and energy-efficient infrastructure.

Our Core Service Lines

What services do we offer for data center projects? We operate across three primary service categories, each covering distinct phases of a project lifecycle.

Turnkey Project Services

Full project delivery under a single contract. We handle design, procurement, construction, testing, and commissioning for your data center facility.

Project Management Consulting (PMC)

Independent oversight of your data center project. Our PMC team protects your interests by managing cost, schedule, quality, and contractor performance.

Engineering Design Services

Multi-discipline detailed design covering all building and infrastructure systems required for a certified, operational data center facility.

Engineering Design Disciplines We Cover

Our data center facility design services include all the following engineering disciplines under one team:

How Does Our Data Center Project Process Work?

Our structured delivery model follows a five-phase methodology aligned with Uptime Institute Tier standards and the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) guidelines.

Feasibility and Site Assessment

We evaluate power availability, connectivity, land stability, and risk factors for your proposed site to confirm technical and commercial viability before any design begins.

Conceptual and Basis of Design (BOD)

We define the facility’s tier classification, IT load capacity, redundancy strategy (N, N+1, 2N), and infrastructure architecture in a detailed Basis of Design document.

Detailed Multi-Discipline Engineering

All discipline teams (civil, electrical, HVAC, fire, ELV, cleanroom) produce construction-ready drawings, specifications, and BOQ packages in a coordinated BIM environment.

Construction and Commissioning Oversight

Our site engineers monitor contractor quality, resolve RFIs, conduct factory acceptance tests (FAT), and manage the integrated systems commissioning (ISC) process.

 
Handover, Documentation, and O&M Support

We deliver as-built drawings, O&M manuals, commissioning reports, and Tier certification documentation, then provide optional post-handover technical support.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a data center engineering company actually do?

A data center engineering company provides the technical expertise needed to plan, design, build, and commission a data center facility. This includes site selection analysis, infrastructure design across all building systems (electrical, HVAC, fire, civil), construction supervision, and commissioning support. The goal is to ensure the facility meets its uptime, power, and cooling targets before it goes live.

How long does the data center design process take in India?

A typical Basis of Design (BOD) and concept design phase takes 4 to 8 weeks. Detailed engineering design for a medium-scale facility (5 to 10 MW IT load) takes 12 to 20 weeks depending on the number of disciplines involved. Full EPC delivery including construction and commissioning typically ranges from 18 to 36 months based on facility size and site conditions.

What is the difference between EPC and PMC services for a data center?

EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) means the engineering firm is responsible for delivering the completed facility under one contract. PMC (Project Management Consulting) means the firm acts as the owner's representative, overseeing third-party contractors and ensuring the project meets technical, cost, and schedule requirements. If you want full accountability from a single firm, choose EPC. If you want to retain direct contracts with vendors but need expert oversight, choose PMC.

What is the cost of data center infrastructure consulting in India?

Consulting fees depend on the scope of work, facility size, number of disciplines, and engagement model. Engineering design-only engagements are typically priced on a lump-sum basis starting from INR 25 to 50 lakhs for small facilities. PMC services are usually structured as a percentage of project cost (2% to 5%). Turnkey EPC projects are priced based on the total CAPEX. Contact us for a project-specific cost estimate.

Do you provide Tier II, III, or IV data center designs?

Yes. We design data centers across all Uptime Institute Tier classifications. Most enterprise clients in India opt for Tier III (concurrently maintainable), which allows maintenance without shutting down IT equipment. We help clients select the appropriate tier based on their business continuity requirements and capital budget.

What MEP systems do you engineer for a data center?

Our data center MEP consultants design and specify all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems including UPS and battery systems, diesel generator sets, HT/LT switchgear, precision cooling (CRAC, CRAH, in-row cooling), chillers, cooling towers, HVAC for support areas, fire suppression (clean agent and water-based), plumbing, and ELV systems such as DCIM, CCTV, access control, and structured cabling.

Can you help with data center upgrades or capacity expansion projects?

Yes. We handle greenfield and brownfield projects. For existing facilities, we conduct an infrastructure assessment, identify bottlenecks, and produce an expansion or upgrade design that works within operational constraints without affecting live IT systems. Our team is experienced in phased expansion planning for colocation and enterprise facilities across India.

Do you offer cleanroom design services as part of data center projects?

Yes. Cleanroom design is included in our engineering design services portfolio. We design ISO-classified cleanrooms for semiconductor and electronics manufacturing clients who require cleanroom environments adjacent to or integrated with their data and control infrastructure. We follow ISO 14644 and NBC 2016 guidelines for cleanroom design in India.

What locations in India do you serve for data center construction consulting?

We serve clients across all major Indian cities including Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, and Bhopal. We also support projects in emerging Tier 2 data center markets such as Kochi, Nagpur, Jaipur, and Lucknow. Our team can mobilize for on-site assignments anywhere in India.

What certifications and standards do your engineers follow?

Our engineers follow Uptime Institute Tier Standards, TIA-942 Data Center Standards, ASHRAE Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing Environments, National Building Code of India (NBC 2016), IS 1646 (fire safety), IS 694 and IS 732 (electrical wiring), and ECBC norms for energy efficiency. We also apply BIS standards and local municipal building codes applicable to each project location.
