Vertiv and Compass Datacenters are partnering to deploy Vertiv™ SmartRun, a prefabricated white space infrastructure solution designed to speed data hall readiness while delivering flexibility, consistency and scalability for the next generation of compute.
By combining power, cooling, containment and networking into a single integrated overhead system, Vertiv™ SmartRun helps reduce on site complexity, shorten timelines and support evolving AI driven density requirements.
As Eric Williams, Senior Vice President of Solutions Engineering at Compass Datacenters, explains:
“Whether it’s AI driven density or future ready configurations, Vertiv™ SmartRun helps us adapt without starting from scratch.”
Integrated Infrastructure Ready for White Space Fit Out
Vertiv™ SmartRun is a prefabricated solution that integrates high density power distribution, liquid cooling infrastructure, fiber pathways and aisle containment into an all in one platform manufactured and tested at Vertiv facilities before arriving on site.
Because the system is pre integrated and quality checked before delivery, it installs in a single lift with minimal crew requirements, reducing labor coordination challenges, on site risk and construction delays.
This approach shortens the timeline from contract to commissioning, enabling faster deployment, fewer surprises and a quicker path to customer revenue.
Designed for Speed, Flexibility and Consistency
Traditional fit outs rely on custom designs and complex on site coordination across multiple trades, which increases cost, risk and schedule uncertainty.
Vertiv™ SmartRun replaces these inefficiencies with a flexible and consistent solution that integrates seamlessly into Compass’ standardized campus design while remaining adaptable across multiple generations of compute.
Its modular architecture allows customers to scale infrastructure and respond to future requirements without redesigning core systems.
Extending Compass’ Manufacturing Approach
Compass has long applied manufacturing principles to data center development. Through collaboration with Vertiv engineers, SmartRun extends this approach into the white space environment, creating a standardized yet customizable fit out solution.
By moving critical integration work off site and into controlled manufacturing environments, the solution reduces on site complexity while improving quality, safety and predictability.
The result is a consistent, scalable infrastructure platform designed to meet both current AI driven demands and future performance needs.
