Upgrading Batteries for a Global IT Outsourcing Company

Data center operations professionals know how fraught their job is. Managing uptime for thousands of professionals around the globe demands a high level of skill and attention to detail. Any change needs to be managed with a high degree of coordination and management.

When faced with operational changes, Piedmont Moving Systems has the tools and skills to handle all of your needs. You don’t have to take our word for it. Our experience as a technology moving company speaks for itself. We recently had the pleasure of helping a multi-billion dollar global IT infrastructure services company upgrade their data center’s batteries quickly and efficiently without disrupting others who work in their building.

Because their business runs out of an office building, one of their largest concerns was having the batteries safely moved without creating problems for their neighbors. Since their office is located downtown, we already had challenges with traffic and parking to navigate, but we were able to meet all of their needs with our expertly-crafted solutions.

In fact, the following are just a few of the additional needs we had to meet in order to call the operation a success:

  • Carry extremely heavy and valuable items without damage
  • Manage the outgoing old batteries and properly dispose of the e-waste
  • Store and deliver the new batteries once they are ready to be received
  • Maintain the data center’s uptime commitments

As a data center mover, we were ready to tackle the challenge, so we sat down with the leads of the project to devise a plan that worked for everyone. Not only did we want to meet the needs mentioned above, but we also had timelines and budgets to consider. Our experience as a computer mover gave us a leg up because we already had access to the specialized equipment for heavy items as well as a storage warehouse and delivery management.

In order to avoid disruption to the daily routine of the other businesses in the building, we simply recommended scheduling the work from 3 pm to 5 am for several days in a row until the project was completed.

After completing this move and many others, we are confident that we can tackle any technology moves that you throw our way, so don’t hesitate to contact us for your next relocation.
