SUDLOWS

“ It ' s really important that our people have a holistic understanding of how all the elements of the business work ”

JOHN RIPPINGALE MANAGING DIRECTOR OF MEA & APAC , SUDLOWS CONSULTING means we ' re better equipped to work with contractors , be flexible , and not just rigidly stick to our initial designs when something poses a problem ,” John explains . “ It ' s all about making the project work . And data centre projects have really aggressive timelines , because the client wants the site to go live as soon as possible - because that ' s when the facility can start generating revenue for them .”
By applying this approach to the full endto-end lifecycle of a data centre project , Sudlows has established itself as an extremely versatile organisation in the UAE and India . “ We can be with the client throughout the whole lifecycle of a project ,” adds John . “ Even if we ' re not the lead consultant on a project , there are still lots of different stages where we can get involved and help support the client by adding value to the project .”
