IBM Barcelona

IBM Spain entrusted EOS with the drafting of the assessment, and execution of the implementation of a new Data Processing Centre in its building in the Barcelona town of Sant Fruitós del Bagès.

This building already had a DPC located on the ground floor, so the project faced the difficulty of undertaking new works while keeping the previous one operational.

The project came about following an in-depth feasibility study that included a study of the existing structure in addition to EOS´ understanding of the specificities of this type of installation, to ensure the suitability of the building for this new use.

The renovation of the existing building for locating the new DPC included the rehabilitation of the roof; remodelling of the lower and first floors; a level of installations and civil works to place the new data rooms, offices and annexed installations; development of a new metallic roof for the new and improved installations of air-conditioning, chillers, pumps and tanks.

Additionally, a completely refurbished existing electrical infrastructures of the current DPC was accomplished to a higher grade to bring them in line with the high quality of the project and the new installation
