This Mission Critical Data Center project included the repurpose and conversion of the former White Oak Semiconductor plant into a modern 43.5 MW, LEED Silver, Colocation data center for Quality Technology Services (QTS). The project team repurposed an approximately 321,000 SF facility with the first 12 MW of a total 36 MW infrastructure in just six months, coming online in July 2015. A combined strategy of hyper-efficient sourcing and just-in-time material management saved an estimated three months off a typical nine-month schedule for a project of this scope.
