Single-Source Procurement Saves Time and Money for Hyperscale Data Center Projects

Oct. 14, 2025

Lead times for medium- and low-voltage (MV/LV) switchgear, transformers, and other major pieces of electrical infrastructure now average over 60 weeks. To keep data center projects on schedule, hyperscalers and their electrical contractors frequently try to cobble together everything they need from multiple suppliers.

But that strategy still doesn’t guarantee that they’ll get it all in time. It also forces them to spend time and money integrating a multi-vendor environment and then working with multiple manufacturers for post-installation service and support.
