| In this Conceptual
Planning Phase the customer establishes
objectives for the facility and other key criteria such as the implementation
schedule, budgets and preferred suppliers. The Decision Phase will
create a clear picture of the desired facility and an estimate of
the cost to build it. Racon Engineering Inc. offers the following
services/alternatives as part of this Conceptual Planning Phase.
In the Conceptual Design Report document, Racon
Engineering Inc. will analyse computer environment needs from the
perspectives of:
- Operations
- Work Flow
- Equipment Configuration
- Building Services
- Available Space
- Business Goals
- Future Expansion Plans
The Conceptual Design Report document is intended
as a senior level planning tool for mid-sized and large projects
requiring evaluation and approval.
The Conceptual Layout is based on the objectives
and design premises confirmed in the Report. We provide the engineering
analysis and budget estimates needed to decide what to build, when,
and why. The Conceptual Layout is a detailed equipment layout drawing
for owner approval. Factors addressed in the Conceptual Layout include:
- Hardware Configuration
- Data Centre Electrical System
- Site Evaluation/Drawing Review
- Security
- Building Mechanical System
- Fire Detection and Protection
- Data Centre Mechanical System
- Site Monitoring
- Plumbing and Drainage
- Communications
- Building Electrical System
- Future Planning
- Architectural Detail
The above criterion is used for drawings and sizing
air conditioners, UPS, generators, TVSS and all other equipment
recommended for installation in your computer room.
Alternative for smaller Computer Rooms
The Inter-Active Planning package is tailored to
smaller facilities and tight implementation schedules. The IAP provides
a concise summary of the customer's facility objectives and requirements,
a conceptual plan (scope of work) to build a facility that meets
those requirements, and budget costs to build it. Simple layout
drawings and confirmation of the gross requirements for space, power,
and cooling are included as well. This is an interactive approach
incorporates the criterion established above for fast-track projects.
