How we work in Rochdale
Measure the load
We read the IT and UPS load and allow for growth.
Design resilience
Duty/standby units, changeover control and power supplies are designed together.

Work around live equipment is planned with your IT team and kept clean. In Rochdale we agree timings around your opening hours.
Test failover
We test the changeover and alarms before handover.
Things to check in Rochdale
Monitoring
A temperature alarm costs little compared to the equipment it protects.
Working hours
Most Rochdale businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Resilience
A single unit is a single point of failure. N+1 means one unit can fail without the room overheating.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
