During a four-floor build-out for Microsoft’s DC Federal Sales Force and Health Solutions Group, it was discovered that there was not enough power in the base building to support the required loads for the group’s new data center. This midproject crisis required the entire project team to find a solution so the space could be occupied on schedule.
HITT’s project team, along with the design team, acted quickly to find alternative solutions that could be achieved within the required time frame. A permanent power upgrade would take about 12 weeks, which would have prevented Microsoft from moving into its space on time.
