1. Solution Design & Proposal Management The scope of technical solutions is divided into the following categories: Infrastructure Build & Cabling: Installation of 47RU server racks, assembly of Hot and Cold Aisle Containment systems (polycarbonate infills, sliding doors), and implementation of comprehensive structured cabling solutions, including fiber runners, cable trays, and pathway management. Power Systems: Management of busway infrastructure, deployment of 3PH Tap Off Units (TOUs), installation of PDUs/rPDUs, and execution of rack grounding systems. Integration & Systems: Modification and relocation of environmental sensors, lighting, and BMS integration. Mechanical Solutions: Design and implementation of cooling systems, piping infrastructure, and execution or review of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis for data halls. Testing & Commissioning: Heat Load Testing in accordance to the customer fit-out deployment which includes load bank rentals ● CPR Delivery: Generate Customer Project Requests (CPRs) within the agreed SLAs: Standard Enterprise: 3 business days. Custom Enterprise: 10 business days. Wholesale/Hyperscale: 20 business days. AI Development: For baselining. ● Customer RFI and Data/Drawing Provision: Manage RFI support by collaborating with the Sales Team, DCSO, DCES, and the Design & Construction Teams to complete customer data forms and provide relevant documents based on the selected Data Hall and Data Center Campus. This includes rigorously filtering out sensitive data (such as CAD files and design calculations). Obtain approval from top management before releasing sensitive documentation, particularly when explicitly requested by the client. ● Technical Accuracy: Ensure all designs and solutions are technically sound, identifying risks before implementation to prevent delays or service interruptions. ● Handover Management: Establish and maintain a seamless handover process from the Solutioning team to the Provisioning team for all signed customer orders. ● Audit Compliance: Ensures that each Solutioning project request adheres to the approved DCSP Playbook process. 2. Proposal Management ● Coordination & Costing: Generate and manage the Bill of Materials (BOM) for all CPRs by liaising with vendors to secure accurate lead times and costing, ensuring the final proposal is technically accurate and delivered on time. ● Accuracy & Optimization: Ensure quantities and rates are accurate, minimize proposals, and perform quantity surveying. 3. Vendor Management ● Vendor Collaboration: Liaise with vendors on customer requirements. ● Proposal Repository: Establish a vendor proposal repository for future reference. 4.
