Global contractor delivers data center on time through streamlined workflows

“Using Asite, I transfer files from our CDE to [the data center owner-operator's] CDE without needing to manually download anything. It saved at least 60+ mins a day.”

Lead Project Information Manager, Global Tier 1 Contractor

Background

A Tier 1 contractor was responsible for the delivery of a Manchester-based data centre for a global data centre operator. With construction programmes typically spanning just 12-18 months, the project demanded rapid information exchange, precise governance, and accelerated review and approval cycles.

For a fast-paced data centre build, speed, accuracy, and adherence to ISO 19650 were critical. Information reviews needed to be completed in days rather than weeks, while ensuring that all documentation met strict internal and client governance standards.

Solution

The contractor used Asite workflows and API integrations to streamline information exchange between its own CDE and the data center owner-operator's environment. Automated governance controls enforced ISO 19650-compliant naming and metadata at source, while direct file transfer removed the need for manual downloads and re-uploads. Workflow automation and digital handover integrations reduced administrative effort, accelerated reviews and approvals, and ensured the asset owner always had access to accurate, up-to-date information.

In this case study, learn how the contractor worked with Asite to: 

• Streamline data exchange between separate contractor and client CDEs
• Enforce ISO 19650-compliant information governance through automated controls
• Save 500+ hours annually using workflows and API-enabled digital handover
