Mission Critical Systems
Electrical Engineering
Mark Crawford is an electrical engineer by qualification.
He has particular skills in mission critical system design, such as those needed for data centres
and high-uptime facilities.
He has a great depth of experience in generator, UPS and large switchboard design.
Mark understands the varying requirements of the tier systems used to categorise mission critical facilities and can design to meet these.
He has been involved with many mission critical facilities in New Zealand and overseas, including: ANZ Data Centres, Datacom Data Centres, Spark Data Centres and Sky TV.
Commissioning
Commissioning is an important task on all projects, but on mission critical facilities it is paramount.
Each system and sub-system needs to be proved to be 100% operational.
All failure scenarios need to be identified and tested.
The facility needs to be fully integrated and proven.
This takes time and expertise.
Mark Crawford has over 20 years of experience in commissioning high end data centres and mission critical facilities.
Migration Documentation
When an upgrade of critical equipment is required it is not just a matter of turning it off and replacing.
A detailed procedure needs to be developed to migrate from the existing to the new installation.
CxM has experience in developing detailed migration documents for such occasions.
Our approach is to include key stakeholders in the process, produce easy-to-follow documents and to insist on performing a dry run of all planned activities.
This has proved to be a successful formula.
