Vertiv has launched a new Consultant Portal in India, designed to support consulting engineers involved in the planning, design and specification of digital infrastructure projects.
The launch comes as India’s data-center industry continues to expand. According to industry estimates cited in Vertiv’s announcement, India’s data-center capacity is expected to cross 8 GW by 2030, creating greater demand for specialized engineering, infrastructure planning and technical expertise.
For consultants working on these projects, access to reliable technical information and design resources can play an important role in making infrastructure decisions at an early stage.
The new portal brings several resources together in a single platform. Registered consultants can access technical documentation, BIM content, design tools and training programmes, along with engineering support from Vertiv.
The platform is intended to help consulting engineers obtain specification-ready information while developing digital infrastructure projects. This can be particularly useful for professionals involved in data-center planning, where decisions around power, cooling, scalability and equipment specifications need to be considered during the design stage.
Vertiv’s initiative also reflects the changing role of consultants in the digital infrastructure sector. As projects become more complex, consulting engineers are increasingly expected to combine engineering knowledge with an understanding of emerging technologies and infrastructure requirements.
Businesses undergoing large-scale technology upgrades are also increasingly working with digital transformation consultants to align technology investments with operational requirements. Read: How Digital Transformation Consultants Help Textile Businesses
The Consultant Portal is not limited to product information. Vertiv is also providing training programmes, laboratory sessions and educational events, giving consultants opportunities to strengthen their technical knowledge and earn certifications and Continuing Education (CE) credits.
The availability of these resources could help consulting professionals stay updated as data-center infrastructure evolves. Areas such as energy efficiency, cooling systems, power management and digital infrastructure design are becoming increasingly important as operators build facilities to support cloud services, artificial intelligence and other data-intensive technologies.
“As India’s digital infrastructure landscape grows in scale and complexity, consulting engineers play an important role in shaping how that infrastructure is designed and specified.” – Alok Rajput, General Manager ,Technology & Data Centre Business Development, Vertiv India
Rajput added that the portal is intended to give India’s consulting community access to technical resources and expert support from the early stages of design and specification.
India’s expanding digital economy is driving investment in data centers. Growing adoption of cloud computing, artificial intelligence, digital services and enterprise technology is increasing the need for reliable digital infrastructure.
The projected increase in data-center capacity is also creating opportunities for engineering and technology consulting professionals. Consultants are often involved in evaluating infrastructure requirements, preparing specifications, assessing technical options and supporting project implementation.
The growing importance of technology in business is also reshaping the wider consulting industry.
For data-center projects, the need for specialized expertise can become particularly important as companies look for infrastructure that can support increasing computing requirements while maintaining efficiency and reliability.
Vertiv’s Consultant Portal gives the company another channel to engage with consulting engineers during the early stages of infrastructure development. Instead of relying only on conventional product communication, the platform brings technical resources, training and engineering support together for professionals working directly on project specifications.
For consultants, this type of access can simplify the process of finding technical information and staying informed about infrastructure solutions. For Vertiv, closer engagement with the consulting community can help it participate earlier in projects where equipment and infrastructure decisions are being evaluated.
As India’s data-center market continues to grow, the role of consultants is likely to become increasingly important. Projects supporting AI, cloud computing and other digital services require careful planning across power, cooling, connectivity and facility infrastructure.
Vertiv’s new portal therefore represents more than a new online resource. It reflects the growing connection between consulting expertise and India’s expanding digital infrastructure ecosystem.
