AECOM, an integrated global infrastructure firm, and Project Frog, an innovator in advanced component buildings, are forming a partnership to address the increasing need for data centers. The Rapid Deployment Team will construct modular buildings with the quality and flexibility of traditional construction methods.

Project Frog leverages the integration of components from off-site manufacturing that are designed for shipping and rapid on-site installation. The Converge data center kit results in an accelerated construction schedule which materially increases the speed to market of a revenue-producing data center anywhere in the world.

For more than 25 years, AECOM has planned, designed, and constructed data centers and mission critical facilities around the world. The company has a deep knowledge of the data center market and expertise in the turnkey provision of data center facilities. AECOM provides solutions that allow simplified installation processes that enable future expansion with cost, time, and maintenance benefits.

With customizable solutions for small (1 MW) to large data centers (50+ MW), the AECOM and Project Frog Rapid Deployment Team streamlines data center development. The solution allows for consistent and scalable roll out globally.
