Vertiv SmartMod Solution Enables Government Department to Scale Up New Edge Site Within Two Months
A major UK government department needed rapid compute expansion at its Kent border site to handle post-Brexit data demands. Traditional builds were too slow, so it deployed Vertiv’s SmartMod™ prefabricated modular data centre. The unit, customized with VR racks, Liebert® CRV cooling, and modular UPS, was installed in just two months. Energy-efficient features like iCOM™ controls optimized cooling, while built-in security included video cameras and alarms. The solution delivered high availability, sustainability, and simplified support, with flexibility to relocate the unit as needs evolve—providing a scalable, future-ready edge infrastructure.
