MD Nick Ewing explains how EfficiencyIT’ s approach to modular data centres, sustainability and its partner collaborations are shaping a fast-evolving industry
When EfficiencyIT was founded in 2016, the initial aim was to challenge the status quo of what was achievable in data centres and critical IT.
“ We wanted to do something different. We could see how the industry was changing, including people’ s perception of resellers and what they do, and how what they deliver was changing. We wanted to be at the forefront of that change,” says Nick Ewing, Managing Director of EfficiencyIT.
The company now focuses on data centres, IT and critical communications environments, with a specialism in high-density, prefabricated modular systems.
Within that, Nick explains, it designs and delivers a mix of on-premise and prefab data centres, delivering them with energy efficiency software, power and UPS technology and both air and liquid cooling.
In 2017, the business began its journey into modular and prefabricated facilities.“ We kind of fell into building prefabricated facilities quite early on,” he says.“ That shift became one of our defining areas of growth.”
The ability to meet customers’ demands for speed of deployment, scalability and and energy efficiency has become a competitive edge for the company.
