Our client’s data center engineering group (DCE) was challenged to improve data center operations for its 40 data centers located in six global sites. With control over some of the most critical and high-value technology assets in the organization, DCE found it hard to obtain metrics for reporting and planning purposes.

Align used Asset Point and integrated it with iTRACS, a cable management package, and APC’s ISX Central tool, a power monitoring tool, to allow users to check connectivity and power consumption for each asset in the data center.

As part of our turnkey solution, the Asset Point audit team inventoried 2,600 data center cabinets with over 16,000 technology assets. Using APScan on hand-held devices, our team was able to complete this effort at a rate of 1000 cabinets/month.
