Different by Design. Accountable by Nature.
The data demands of our modern economy, and the innovations driving it, require data centers that are not only scalable, but sustainable. At Compass, we believe long-lived assets and environmental responsibility go hand in hand. That’s why we’re committed to building sustainable buildings that last, with minimal waste and maximum safety, supporting support diversity and expediting delivery.

Firsts that Move the Needle
Making Lives Better
Whether it’s protecting our teams, partnering with suppliers or engaging local communities, we’re committed to making lives better. On every site, every day.
In the Community:
We’re not just building data centers – we’re building long-lasting relationships. Our approach to development is rooted in transparency, respect and collaboration. Here’s how we partner with communities.
We start by engaging with neighbors, local officials and community leaders to share project plans and address concerns. Your input helps shape our projects to better align with community needs.
During construction, we take steps to minimize impacts on daily life, including managing noise, traffic and dust. We share regular updates, so you know what to expect.
Our data centers are designed to blend into the community, with low noise, minimal traffic, and sustainable practices that protect resources and reduce environmental impacts.
We actively invest in local infrastructure, education and programs to support economic and social growth.
At Compass:
We can’t move fast without a talented, committed team. We invest in what matters most: safety, mental health and professional growth.
In 2023, we launched the Frontliners initiative to better support frontline supervisors who are critical to jobsite safety. The program encourages open dialogue, reflection, and collaboration between supervisors and leadership. Creating safer, less stressful environments where people can speak up and learn from every experience.
Through Compass Cares, we ensure that anyone working on our sites, even if not directly employed by us, believes and follows our core safety values. The program provides guidelines and ways to approach problems and puts safety first.
Compass believes in investing in our workforce. Both our employees and contract workers receive extensive training to help them develop skills, feel like a part of the team and learn about the helpful tools available to them.
