Financial IT firm, Fidessa PLC, has ensured that it will not face potential catastrophe caused by a blackout or power surge by using the services of the shentongroup to provide it with standby generators, generator maintenance as well as air conditioning.
A leading supplier of multi-asset trading company for firms involved in trading the world’s financial markets, it was imperative that Fidessa was able to provide power continuity. Aware that its existing, single standby generator was insufficient for its needs turned to the shentongroup’s Scorpion standby generators for a solution.
Shentongroup’s engineer’s survey found that there were three key areas of the Woking headquarters that needed additional power support. These facilities have now been equipped with appropriately sized standby generators, ranging from 300kVA to 630kVA. A further generator has been supplied to Fidessa’s offices in London.
To ensure consistent and reliable operation of all its generators, Fidessa has contracted with shentongroup’s Powercare Premier generator service contract.
As a result of this work, shentongroup’s Celtaire air conditioning was installed to provide environmental air conditioning for Fidessa’s comms room in London. With its power lineage shentongroup was quickly able to understand the power density requirements of the IT equipment and design a solution that not only supports the IT equipment today, but also provides for flexibility and scalability in the future.
Commenting David Awcock, said: “It is very helpful to have an organisation that can provide us with an integrated service that combines the supply of standby generators with maintenance and air conditioning. All three of the shentongroup’s companies have given excellent service and have gone out of their way to accommodate us by carrying out installation work out of hours to prevent disruption to the day to day running of the company”.
