Data Center Consulting Services

Site Selection

Our process is customized to each client’s project approval process, and the real estate and technical requirement itself. We work collaboratively from the outset to fully assets and understand the assignment and use a proprietary scorecard to rank and order locations, whether it's a local service facility or a large scale operation.

Transaction Management

Successful transaction management begins with a concise and measurable timeline. From the first stage of developing the full requirement to the final stage of lease execution, we maintain customized reporting standards ensuring seamless transitions from beginning to end.

Agency Leasing 

Our agency leasing strategy is multidisciplinary and our goal is to achieve the greatest value for our clients in the shortest amount of time. We develop a customized leasing and marketing strategy and implement with a variety of approaches.

Facilities Management

Globally, Cushman & Wakefield manages more than 30 million feet of mission critical facilities space and nine million square feet of raised-floor data centers. We draw on the practical experience of our in-house management and engineering personnel to deepen our technical knowledge to these facilities, from air conditioning (energy consumption/ energy efficiency) and environmental controls to power sources and everything in between for a successful data center operation.

Project Management / Build-out

The project management program of our group helps ensure cost effective execution of capital plans for the construction and occupancy of data centers. We add value through a consistent and professional approach.
