Below are anonymised examples of risks our senior engineers have caught on previous hyperscale builds. Programme names and client identities are removed; capacity, region and date are real.
These are the patterns Upterix is built to find.
Anonymised cases
Recovered value across cases
Weeks of schedule recovered
Anonymised · no client identities
Cable tray sizing assumed 2019 power densities; project was specified for 2024 GPU racks at 75 kW each. Caught in pre-tender review.
rework avoided
schedule recovered
Adiabatic cooling assumption in a location where water allocation could not be secured for full deployment. PUE penalty would have been 0.15.
energy cost avoided over 10-year lifecycle
Contractor bid technically lowest on price but had qualified out N+1 redundancy on the chilled water system. Procurement team had not flagged.
latent operating risk eliminated
Detail design assumed deliveries via a route that did not have crane clearance. Would have required wall demolition and rebuild mid-construction.
schedule recovered
All clashes resolved in BIM at sign-off; field install impossible without removing structural beams in a sequence not supported by the steel programme.
demolition rework avoided
Reference Tier IV design assumed ambient ≤ 35°C. Site experienced 38°C peak conditions; redundancy claims would have failed audit.
late-stage redesign avoided
