Restoring Operational Readiness Through Robust QAQC in a Live Data Centre

How a tailored quality assurance approach helped turn around a project riddled with legacy issues.

Location: Germany
Facility: Tier III Data Centre Campus
Engagement: QAQC Services, Snag Resolution, Compliance Oversight

Brought in during the later stages of a multi-phase data centre development, our team was tasked with addressing unresolved snags, compliance gaps, and missing documentation that persisted after earlier project handovers. The facility was already operational, but significant quality concerns across electrical, mechanical, and architectural systems posed risks to both performance and stakeholder confidence.

The Challenge

Widespread NCRs and incomplete snag closeout

Deficiencies in electrical systems, including lighting control and distribution

Poorly commissioned BMS and ventilation units

Incomplete or missing O&M documentation

Stakeholder fatigue and low confidence due to legacy project issues

Our QAQC Approach

Certified Oversight: Handwerkarte-accredited electrical leadership to enforce compliance

Tailored QAQC Protocols: Built specifically for live-site operations and legacy resolution

Digital Process Management: Centralised tracking and reporting via QAQC software tools

Stakeholder Engagement: Focused communication with operations and security teams to rebuild trust

Outcomes

– Systematic snag/NCR closeout

– Restored compliance across all critical systems

– Improved audit and handover readiness

– Strengthened quality culture on-site

This project stands as proof of our commitment to delivery under pressure: Assess, Rectify, Restore. Our culture of accountability, technical rigor, and partnership meant that even amid inherited challenges, we delivered stability, compliance, and control to a live operational environment.

Our team’s leadership on the ground reflected the core of who we are; the discipline to enforce standards, the resolve to confront legacy issues head-on, and the adaptability to restore integrity where others had fallen short.

This wasn’t just QAQC. This was recovery in motion, and a building that now works because of it.
