Datalec Precision Installations (DPI), a leading provider of premier data centre design, supply, build, and managed services, has officially announced its strategic expansion into the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. This significant development represents a pivotal milestone in DPI’s global growth strategy, highlighting the company’s dedication to providing seamless, integrated, and end-to-end solutions for data centre operators worldwide.
New Regional Headquarters in Singapore
The expansion begins with the establishment of DPI’s regional headquarters in Singapore, a city-state chosen for its strategic location and robust digital infrastructure ecosystem. This office will serve as a springboard for DPI’s planned growth across the APAC region, with future expansions targeted in Indonesia, Australia, and Malaysia.
Commitment to the APAC Market
Peter Cole, Executive Vice President for APAC at Datalec Precision Installations, remarked, “Our entry into the APAC market is a natural progression of our global strategy. We are deeply committed to supporting the fast-growing data centre industry in this dynamic region, delivering expertise and innovative solutions to address our clients’ evolving needs.”
Driving Forces Behind the Expansion
DPI’s expansion into APAC is driven by the region’s burgeoning demand for data centre services, fuelled by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), digital transformation initiatives, cloud adoption, and the proliferation of emerging technologies. The company’s comprehensive service portfolio, including design, build, and maintenance services, uniquely positions it to address the complex requirements of data centre operators in this growing market.
Sustainability Initiatives
In alignment with its commitment to sustainability, DPI is adopting industry-leading practices to achieve a zero-carbon footprint for its operations in the APAC region. This initiative supports the company’s overarching sustainability goals and exemplifies its dedication to environmental responsibility across all facets of its business.
Manufacturing and Local Inventory Strategy
To ensure timely project delivery and uphold the highest quality standards, DPI plans to leverage its state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities to produce products compliant with British standards. Additionally, the company will maintain local stock inventory in Singapore to minimise lead times and enhance responsiveness to client needs.
Focus on Workforce Development
A central focus of DPI’s APAC strategy is workforce development and fostering a diverse, multicultural work environment. The company is devoted to hiring and nurturing local talent, contributing to the growth of data centre expertise within the region. Cole added, “Our APAC team will embody the region’s rich cultural diversity, uniting unique perspectives to deliver exceptional solutions for our clients.”
Building on Global Success
DPI’s expansion into the APAC market builds upon its successful growth in other regions, including its recent entry into the United Arab Emirates. The company’s strong history of providing high-quality, cost-effective solutions makes it well-suited to address the unique challenges and opportunities within the APAC market.
Commitment to Core Values
As DPI establishes its presence in the APAC region, it remains committed to its core values of operational excellence, innovation, and customer-centricity. The company will prioritise collaborations with local businesses, government entities, and educational institutions to contribute to the development of the region’s digital infrastructure and economic growth.
