The experts speak up
Discover how the ecological transition is becoming essential
"Data centers will have to publish information on their energy performance and sustainability, thereby promoting the adoption of greener practices and reducing energy and water consumption."
"The energy transition could offer significant economic benefits (...), such as increased energy reliability, economic growth, and job creation."
"Data center electricity consumption continues to grow, with an annual increase of 20 to 40%. This highlights the importance of transitioning to renewable energy sources to manage this growth in a sustainable manner."
Our methodology:
Plan, Drive, Sustain IT
An end-to-end approach: From strategic vision to sustainable performance.
PLAN IT "Design & Plan"
Transform uncertainty into a technical and financial roadmap by aligning the performance of your infrastructure "by design" with your CSR and financial imperatives.
DRIVE IT "Orchestrate & Transform"
Acting as a trusted third party (AMO) to guarantee execution. From strategic sourcing to project management, we defend your interests.
SUSTAIN IT "Sustain & Enhance"
Secure the long-term value of your infrastructure for a resilient asset that is 100% compliant.
Once the transformation is complete, we don't disappear.
PHASE 3 - SUSTAIN:
GOVERNANCE & TALENT
BUILD YOUR TEAMS TO SECURE YOUR OPERATIONS
The best technical architecture is worthless without true experts to operate it.
An essential component of our S.I.T. program, talent acquisition embodies the culmination of our methodology: the "SUSTAIN your IT" phase.
The stakes are too high to be entrusted to generalist recruiters. That's why we've transformed recruitment into a true technical audit. We don't just source profiles: we rigorously identify, evaluate, and qualify your future employees.
* Peer evaluation: Our engineers and data center experts challenge the real skills of your future employees (Critical Power, Cooling & HVAC Experts, BMS Specialists, etc.).
** MCO guarantee: We secure your operations 24/7 by providing you with profiles (permanent or transitional) that are immediately capable of managing your high-density environments.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why use a data center consulting firm (AMO) to modernize your infrastructure?
Calling on an expert data center consulting firm allows you to separate strategy from physical implementation. Unlike an installer, SustainIT acts as an independent project management assistant (PMA). We guarantee service continuity (zero downtime) through strict switchover procedures (MOP), while designing vendor-agnostic architectures capable of absorbing future AI densities (>50kW/rack).
What is the ROI of an existing data center retrofit audit?
The ROI of a retrofit strategy is measured in terms of "cost avoidance." By avoiding the construction of a new data center (a major CAPEX), our clients extend the life of their assets by 10 years. In addition, our consulting firm, through our "CAPITAL program," models financial arrangements including Energy Saving Certificates (ESC) and waste heat resale (Heat Reuse), thereby transforming regulatory compliance into a profit center (OPEX reduced by 30%).
EED Directive and Tertiary Decree: how to audit and bring your data center into compliance?
The European EED directive and the Tertiary Decree require accurate reporting of the energy (PUE) and water (WUE) performance of data centers. To comply, a rigorous data center energy audit is required. As an infrastructure strategy consulting agency, SustainIT, through its "Regulatory SHIELD" program, maps your criminal risks, identifies areas for optimization, and drafts your Compliance Master Plan for the 2026 deadline.
How can liquid cooling (DLC) be integrated into an aging computer room?
Integrating Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) into a legacy building requires a complex feasibility study (hydraulics, floor load capacity, hybrid air/water urbanization). Our IT infrastructure consulting methodology and our "AI & Future Ready" support program model these constraints. We redesign the chilled water loop and manage the tendering process (sourcing) to ensure secure AI densification without disrupting existing production.
