Transforming an empty site into a secure, connected, and business-ready workplace with Unison Computer Systems, Inc.
The Challenge
Moving into a new facility presented an opportunity to build the organization’s technology environment from the ground up, but it also meant starting with an empty floor and no existing IT infrastructure to build upon.
The new site required more than individual technology installations. The organization needed a complete IT foundation that could support employees from day one, including network connectivity, data center infrastructure, structured cabling, wireless access, security, power protection, servers, and workplace technology.
With multiple infrastructure components needing to work together, the project also required careful planning and coordination to ensure everything could be delivered within a unified implementation.
The challenge was clear: turn an empty site into a fully connected, secure, and operational workplace ready for business.
The Solution
Unison Computer Systems, Inc. delivered an end-to-end greenfield IT infrastructure solution, managing the project from initial planning and design through installation, integration, testing, and commissioning.
Rather than implementing each technology in isolation, Unison approached the project as a complete infrastructure build. The data center and network became the foundation, supported by structured cabling, power protection, wireless connectivity, surveillance, servers, security infrastructure, and the technology required across individual workstations.
By bringing the different infrastructure components under a coordinated project, Unison helped simplify deployment while ensuring each element worked as part of a unified technology environment.
Key Solution Components
Data Center Infrastructure
A dedicated data center environment was established to serve as the heart of the new site’s IT operations, providing the foundation for critical network, server, and connectivity infrastructure.
Network & Core Infrastructure
The site’s core network infrastructure was designed and implemented to connect users, systems, and devices throughout the facility while providing a foundation that could accommodate future business requirements.
Structured Cabling
A comprehensive structured cabling system was installed throughout the site, providing the physical connectivity required for workstations, wireless infrastructure, security systems, and other network-connected technologies.
Property-Wide Wireless Connectivity
Wireless connectivity was strategically deployed throughout the facility to complement the wired network and provide users with convenient access across different areas of the workplace.
Power Protection & Continuity
Power protection infrastructure was incorporated into the build to help safeguard critical IT equipment and support greater continuity for essential technology systems.
Physical & Network Security
Surveillance and network security technologies were integrated into the overall infrastructure, strengthening both the physical and digital security foundation of the new facility.
Server & Workplace Readiness
Server infrastructure and endpoint connectivity were incorporated into the deployment so that the environment could transition from an empty floor to a workplace where employees could connect their devices and begin working.
End-to-End Project Delivery
Unison coordinated the different technology components as a single project, covering planning, design, installation, configuration, integration, testing, and commissioning to provide greater accountability throughout the deployment.
Business Impact
The greenfield approach allowed the organization to establish its technology environment around its operational requirements from the beginning, rather than adapting to the limitations of existing infrastructure.
By consolidating multiple infrastructure requirements into a coordinated deployment, Unison Computer Systems, Inc. helped create a more integrated technology foundation while reducing the complexity associated with managing multiple disconnected implementations.
The completed project transformed an empty site into a connected, secure, and operational workplace, with the fundamental technology infrastructure in place to support employees and day-to-day business activities.
Key Outcomes
- Complete IT infrastructure built from the ground up, transforming an empty site into a business-ready workplace.
- Integrated network and data center foundation supporting connectivity across the facility.
- Reliable wired and wireless connectivity designed around the requirements of the new workplace.
- Structured cabling infrastructure connecting workstations and technology systems throughout the site.
- Enhanced infrastructure protection through power continuity and security solutions.
- Improved project coordination by delivering multiple infrastructure components under one unified implementation.
- Workstation readiness enabling employees to connect and begin working within the completed environment.
- Scalable technology foundation designed to support the organization’s evolving business and IT requirements.
From Empty Floor to Connected Workplace
A greenfield project offers something few IT projects do: the opportunity to get the foundation right from the very beginning.
For this deployment, Unison Computer Systems, Inc. brought together the critical layers of modern IT infrastructure, from the data center and core network to cabling, wireless connectivity, security, power protection, servers, and the workplace itself.
The result was more than a collection of installed technologies. It was a fully integrated IT environment built around the organization’s operational needs, turning an empty floor into a connected workplace ready for business today and prepared for what comes next.
