DENVER, June 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — STACK Infrastructure (“STACK”), the digital infrastructure partner to the world’s most innovative companies, today announced an industry-leading score of 95 for all STACK Americas’ data centers that recently completed the Uptime Institute’s Management & Operations (M&O) Assessment Program. This achievement confirms STACK’s dedication to exceptional reliability and top-tier operational practices at its facilities.
Uptime Institute is a global authority on data center standards and conducts data center operations assessments by applying learnings and best practices of critical facilities around the world. STACK’s recognition for its operational excellence from Uptime Institute is a testament to its dedication to management and operations practices that increase reliability, reduce risk, and make its locations safer to operate.
“By implementing strategic management and operations standards, as well as first-rate training for our team, we have achieved high M&O scores across our facilities,” said Chief Data Center Officer, Mike Casey. “We utilize the same comprehensive playbook for maintenance, training, policies, and procedures across all of STACK’s sites, which allows us to scale quickly while maintaining operational consistency. I am extremely proud of our entire Critical Operations Department for their ongoing efforts to operate each of our data centers at world-class standards.”
STACK credits its continued recognition for industry-leading operational performance to practices that were perfected and implemented across all STACK data centers by its Operations Department, paired with vigilant safety standards set forth by STACK’s Environment, Health and Safety Department.
