In an increasingly connected and digital world, your corporation and clients demand access to secure and reliable data without interruption. Whether you require secure connections to foreign overnight markets, telecommunication networks that deliver instant communication and data to millions of customers worldwide, or data centres that house hundreds of petabytes – they all require the highest standards of resilience, redundancy, level of fault tolerance, security and maintenance, while meeting your needs within the defined budget.

At WSP, our vision is to thoroughly understand your requirements, implement the creative engineering solutions you need in design and construction, while taking into account the timing, budget, operations and efficiency of the project. From high density cooling solutions, to high voltage distribution, generation and UPS systems, we spend the time with our clients and stakeholders at each of the critical phases of the project:

Why WSP?Cost-effective and resilient solutions with minimized disruptionOur specialists provide design services and independent advice tailored to client needs, project requirements and budget. We are experienced in designing new-build projects, as well as in refurbishment and upgrades where we minimize disruption while maintaining continuous business operations. This requires being proactive with special planning and consideration from the onset of a project through to its final implementation in order to develop detailed phasing of work plans and Methods of Procedures (MOP) for each and every critical activity.

Future-proof expertise across the building life cycleThe ability to carry out routine maintenance, preventative maintenance, remedial corrective actions and periodic upgrades without affecting your operations is paramount to any business. Our team understands this and provides designs that integrate the facilities’ overall redundancy, resiliency and reliability, while still meeting your budgetary and operational requirements. We offer expert advice on such building usage issues of Climate Change Impact and Whole Life Value.

Our commitment to sustainabilityWe manipulate a building’s thermal and environmental characteristics to achieve a high performance design without relying on energy intensive building services. Utilizing tools such as energy modelling, computational fluid dynamics and predicting a facilities’ overall energy usage, our aim is to maximize your facilities’ Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and reduce cost and carbon use over the life of an asset whilst maximizing functionality and user experience. With extensive experience in sustainability planning and auditing, we can deliver the best possible solution to our clients, providing substantial cost and energy savings.

Delivering a successful project-integrated services deliveryAs a truly integrated design team, we are able to access in-house experts from mechanical and electrical engineering, cooling, power distribution, Building Information Modelling (BIM), security, IT, and sustainability consultants, among others – providing you with a total turn-key solution that has the ability to deliver new builds as well as refurbishment and upgrades within occupied buildings.
