[dc]2 is ready to assist in strengthening the skills of its customers’
project teams and in increasing the quality of work execution and in
controlling of contractors’ actions
PM (Project Management) orchestration is a special case of performing consulting and expertise services within the limits of the project on building/upgrading data center.
Its basic difference from a service "project management" is that the customer hands over an operating company for outsourcing not all scopes of work responsibilities and questions on data center quality/reliability but only the part in of it that lacks special knowledge and resources. Usually PM-orchestration service is used by those customers who have their own strong expert team. They are very good at maintaining network and telecommunication equipment, and also at other questions concerning data centers.
These people are overloaded with performance of their main job duties and can’t really allocate resources to be able to acquire or to upgrade some specific knowledge concerning data center and factors that influence on its quality and reliability. In this case [dc]2 offers its customers to create a mutual project administration from both sides. Thus a customer’s team acts a role of Decisions-making center, and takes up responsibilities for correct formulation of all necessary requirements and restrictions. [dc]2 is responsible for coordination of mutual actions and for measures provided within the limits of a project. Within the framework of this service package [dc]2 implements the following: - Audit of power supply and climatic systems
Our team makes full or partial inspection of data center/server room’s life-support systems. The scope of work which is carried out within the framework of this service can be referred to either separately causing anxiety of the customer, or to full-scale audit of power supply and air-conditioning systems. The methodology used by [dc]2 at performing such works is based on the combination of customers‘business interests and profound knowledge of technologies that allows reaching high productivity both at the idea concept stage and when the work is finished.
- Coordination of plans and activity of all independent working groups involved in the project
Fulfilling these conditions is a key factor of a project’s success. However it bears in itself some risks of subjective and objective moments because each project team runs its tempo and deals in a specific environment, and uses different professional terminology.
