From Power Down to Power Up

Aplena understands the challenges you face when relocating your critical IT assets. As equipment relocation professionals, we work with authorized transportation partners like United Van Lines and Federal Express to ensure your enterprise hardware is handled and transported safely. Upon reaching your designated site(s) we’ll make sure your specialized servers, storage and networks are safely brought back into production.

By letting Aplena help you manage technology changes you’ll cut costs by increasing productivity and minimizing cost over-runs and expensive time delays.

The Process

Each Aplena-assisted relocation is managed by one of our experienced team managers who works closely with your contact person or team to ensure your needs are not just met, but exceeded. Starting with a detailed Data Center Relocation Check List, we’ll make sure that all key moving particulars are totally addressed, with details like before and after relocation placement of racks duly noted.

All tasks, including the planning, de-installation of hardware, packing, transport, unpacking, re-installing and post-installation testing are included in this comprehensive service. We help power down all systems and will only move equipment that has been documented and labeled, including all servers, switches, routers, cables, cabinets, etc.
