14 Sep MiCiM acquire Operational Intelligence
MiCiM have acquired London based company Operational Intelligence (OI), an organisation that offers bespoke training, consultancy, and commissioning services to clients to optimise their data centre risk and energy performance.
The collaborative relationship was formed when working together on several data centre projects.
MiCiM’s Managing Director Marc Beattie said, “It is extremely exciting times for MiCiM, with the acquisition of OI, it fulfils a requirement which I always thought was missing in the industry – intertwining of blue collar engineers to white collar engineers. It will enhance the services of both companies and provide clients with services all through the project lifecycle. MiCiM would then have ownership of project management, buildability, design peer review, commissionability review, commissioning agent and training of the operations team in the new systems. This provides confidence to our clients that when they go out to tender for a general contractor, they know the project programme is correct, the design works, the project can be built and commissioned, and their project team has full ownership throughout – no excuses!”
Sophia Flucker, Managing Director of OI commented, “We are excited about this new chapter and the new opportunities this opens up for delivering high-quality services to our clients. There are clear synergies between the two organisations and we are looking forward to working together to grow our team and develop and extend our service offerings and increase our impact in the market.”
MiCiM are now able to offer additional services:
- Commissioning Agent or Management
- Ops staff training in all engineering principles in data centres, energy management
- Design peer reviews
