IT IS MY PLEASURE to welcome each of you to the 2nd annual Critical Facilities Summit. We’re thrilled to be back in Charlotte, and eager to get things started.

As we wrapped up our inaugural event last October, the CFS team was already brainstorming concepts for our sophomore eff ort and seeking input from attendees, speakers and exhibitors on what they’d

like to see in 2014. I’m pleased to say that the next two and a half days refl ects a variety of suggestions and contributions from all of the above.

For starters, our exhibit hall has grown, off ering more solutions and technologies for you to explore and discover. We boosted the number of networking events on the schedule, and made sure our mornings were accompanied by continental breakfast and coff ee.

Finally, we upped the number of conference sessions for this year’s summit, increasing the amount of medical and lab presentations as well as those emphasizing data center cooling strategies. Th e Project Spotlights are now an hour long (versus last year’s 30-minute timeframe), allowing a deeper dive into a variety of critical facility case studies. And we have more panel discussions on the agenda, addressing everything from data center staffi ng to maintenance funding to colocation trends to industry gamechangers. If there’s one thing we learned in 2013, it’s that the mission critical community is an opinionated one; the more views and perspectives shared, the better.

Within the pages of this directory you will fi nd additional opportunities to engage and interact while attending CFS 2014. You’ll also see the vital support of our exhibitors, sponsors and speakers, and I would like to off er our sincerest thanks for their eff orts in making this year’s event a true success.

Enjoy your time here at Critical Facilities Summit 2014. I invite you to participate as fully as you can and give us your feedback to help shape the future of the summit.

Very best regards,

Wendy DietzlerVice President, Education and [email protected]

Operations and Maintenance StrategiesROOM: 207

In practically every critical facility-be it a data center, hospital or lab-funding for essential maintenance can be diffi cult to come by. One of the biggest challenges: Th e facility department is seen as a cost center, and spending on facility infrastructure projects is not seen as an ROI opportunity. Even when top management understands the value of maintenance, a critical facility project still has to compete with other corporate funding demands, especially those seen as increasing revenue. And there's always the possibility that the IT team won't want to take a chance by having a big piece of facility equipment off line. But there are ways to overcome common objections, and our panel of mission-critical facility professionals will provide insights into how they were able to justify a va-riety of maintenance initiatives by eff ectively communicating risks, benefi ts and true cost of ownership concepts.

Learning Objectives: » Understand key reasons critical facilities maintenance is not consistently funded » Learn how to communicate the benefi ts of preventive maintenance and the risks of

deferred maintenance to upper management » Review success stories that demonstrate successful strategies for obtaining critical

facility maintenance funding

T1.3B DCIM: More than just a Fancy PUE Console

Julius Neudorfer, DCEP Chief Technology Offi cerNorth American Access Technologies, Inc.

High-Effi ciency InitiativesROOM: 203B

Data Center Infrastructure Management — "in-vented" about fi ve years ago as energy effi ciency and the PUE metric were trending — was initially touted as an uber-holistic management tool. Since then, DCIM has moved beyond a glorifi ed PUE console and, now in its second and third genera-tion, has been established as a viable product cate-gory with virtually every major vendor off ering must-have features. In some cases the products are based on traditional Building Management Systems (BMS), while others are focused on IT as-set management. Still, many data center managers are trying to the cost-justify the potential benefi ts of the technology. So what exactly is DCIM and why is almost every organization thinking about putting it on their shopping list? Is DCIM still just market-driven hype, or are there tangible benefi ts to be realized? Th is vendor-agnostic session will delve into the current level of capabilities and potential advantages of DCIM, as well as some of the challenges of implementation.

Learning Objectives: » Learn how DCIM can help improve

Data Center effi ciency » Identify who should evaluate, purchase

T3.8A Up and running and risky: Reducing vulnerability in a new data center

David BostonDirector of Facility Operations Solutions TiePoint Engineering


Have you properly prepared your facilities team for the successful start-up of your new data center? More than almost any other type of facility, a new data center project carries high expectations — and is often the most visible component upon which a facility professional is measured. Major interruptions within the first year of operation can cause more than embar-rassment for an organization, particularly in today‚Äôs high-visibility climate. Yet, this ini-tial break-in period typically carries the highest risk in terms of operational consistency, despite advances in power and cooling system design. This session will identify the top risk factors in new data center operations — cultivated from experience gained through consulting in more than 150 data center facilities — and highlight key components critical to optimal systems performance.

Learning Objectives: » Learn about the chief contributors to new

critical facility operational failure. » Review staffi ng and training best practices to

reduce the risk of critical facility downtime. » Communicate the fi nancial impact of initial

startup risks to upper management. » Deploy a Facilities Operations strategy for a

much higher reliability potential in the fi rst year of operation.

3:30 pmT4.3A Project Spotlight:Utilization of Computer Room Cooling Infrastructure

Lars Strong, PESenior EngineerUpsite Technologies


A worldwide study of major data centers revealed that the average computer room has cooling capacity that is nearly four times the IT heat load. When running cooling capacity is excessively over-implemented, then potentially large operating cost reductions are possible by turning off cooling units and/or reducing fan speeds for units with variable frequency drives

(VFD). Using data from 45 sites reviewed by Upsite Technologies, this presentation will show how you can calculate, benchmark, interpret, and benefi t from a simple and practical metric called the Cooling Capacity Factor (CCF). Cal-culating the CCF is the quickest and easiest way to determine cooling infrastructure utilization and potential gains to be realized by airfl ow management improvements.

Learning Objectives: » Discuss the current state of computer room cooling » Review the results of cooling capacity over-

implementation » Evaluate energy data from 45 data center sites » Learn how to use the Cooling Capacity Factor

metric to determine infrastructure utilization


T4.3B Intelligent Controls: Challenges, Trouble Spots in Critical Facilities

Jim SinopoliManaging PrincipalSmart Buildings, LLC


Implementing intelligent controls can be among the most economical and easily imple-mented energy efficiency strategies in a criti-cal facility. Operators can identify equipment in use that isn't supporting core services and eliminate stranded capacity in the process. Adding controls to the power systems can boost UPS efficiency, and lighting controls offer the opportunity to improve light levels as well as match occupancy schedules.

But the very controls system that can provide so much efficiency can also underper-form, especially if a facility manager doesn't fully identify the technical requirements of the system, its applications and user interface. Facility executives who have a clear grasp of the controls system's size and key features have a much higher chance of ensuring an efficient, cost-effective system that maximizes energy savings and boosts efficiency through-out the data center, hospital, lab or other 7x24 facility.

Learning Objectives: » Review basic controls strategies that every data

center should have in place » Understand higher level control system

functions and how they can benefi t a mission critical building

» Learn how controls contribute to energy savings and sustainability

» Analyze how to best match building controls to a data center's systems, size and scope

Business requirements are changing continuously which drives change in the data center. Th e data center is meant to be a fl exible, blank slate upon which IT services are quickly built, dismantled and reconfi gured continuously to enable business agility. But how agile is your data center? Can you quantify the cost and risk of changing the data center roadmap to accommodate business needs? Are you able to factor into business decisions the risks from change? Th is spotlight will explore how a global fi nancial institution and a global distri-bution company used a predictive approach in their operations to increase effi ciency, resilience and to maximize useable data center capacity in their facility. By building and calibrating a Virtual Facility for their data center, they were able to undertake a project that resulted in signifi cant energy savings and an increase in usable capacity. Th ese case studies illustrate how data center operations were able to meet business objectives through continuous modeling, and highlight a new data center performance/risk score called "ACE" (Availability, Capacity and Effi ciency).

Learning Objectives: » Quantify the risk and cost of change in

the data center » Consolidate tracking of three interrelated

performance metrics that together capturethe very purpose of the data center

» Learn how ACE calculations are made practical by computer modeling of thephysical data center

» Address limitations of popular best practices and why these alone cannot address the underlying causes of availability andcapacity utilization problems

3:45 pmW4.3A Onsite Critical Power Generation and the TDC Delaware Project

Bruce Myatt, PEEVP & CTOThe Data Centers, LLC


While the data center community has become dramatically more energy efficient, data centers continue to consume about 3 percent of our gross national power production. In the mean-time, our national electrical power generation and transmission infrastructures become more fragile every year, prompting U.S. energy intensive industries to move to a distributed power generation model, making "micro-grid" operations more prevalent than ever. Attend this presentation to learn why major data center operators need to consider "off-grid" comput-ing now, and learn the differences between "pri-mary" and "critical" on-site power.


CONFERENCE SESSIONS(W3.3B Continued)


Scalable Turbine Solutions30kW to 30MW of green power

Ultra-low EmissionsBetter than the toughest global standards

High Availability 99.999999% availability in N+1 arrangements

Low MaintenanceOnly one moving part, no coolants or lubricants

DurableTens of millions of operating hours and counting

Mission critical processes require a power solution that is more reliable and efficient than what a typical utility can provide. Businesses such as high tech manufacturing, data centers, and hospitals cannot suffer even a momentary lapse in power without catastrophic consequences to their process or facility. Capstone’s critical power supply portfolio features the world’s only microturbine-powered Uninterruptible Power Source (UPS) solution that delivers the reliability and performance critical facilities require.

W4.7A CMMS for Critical Facilities

Martin T. OlsenExecutive Vice President,Sales and MarketingTSS, Inc.


Computerized Maintenance Management System or CMMS is far more than simply an asset management tool to keep tabs on equipment, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) of the same, work and materials management. Too oft en the CMMS system, whether home-grown or supported, is used as a repository for data that never makes it out the other end as useful information to the operators, users and more impor-tantly owners of the equipment, but rather becomes a "black-hole" of unmeasured and unmonitored data with some lookup capability. A CMMS system is only truly valuable when it drives improvements in systems reliability, predictive operation analysis and ultimately cost effi ciencies to the business.

Th is session will focus on how to use a CMMS system as a valuable tool in analyzing the data captured and turning it into measurable cost reductions in parts and work management, frequency of maintenance, predictive failure analysis and risk mitigation strategies while maintaining or improving reliability of the system(s).

Learning Objectives: » Identify ways in which a CMMS can be used to

drive improvements in systems reliability » Determine how to use a CMMS system as a

valuable tool in analyzing the data » Learn how captured data can be turned into

measurable cost reductions in parts and work management, frequency of maintenance, predictive failure analysis and risk mitigation strategies


W4.7C Project Spotlight: The Challenge of Mission Critical Bearing Protection

Adam WillwerthSales and Marketing ManagerElectro Static Technology

Project SpotlightROOM: 207C

Motors in the Computer Room Air Conditioning (CRAC) systems in a data center in the NYC area experienced 25 percent motor bearing failure from VFD induced bearing currents. To solve this problem an AEGIS split-ring grounding ring was selected that could slip around an in-service mo-tor's shaft eliminating the need to remove and re-align the sheaves and belts driving the fan wheel, and allowed for quick installation with minimal down time. Before installation, bearing currents were reading with peak-to-peak voltages of 24 to 38 volts with continuous bearing discharges. Aft er the rings were installed, the shaft voltage was below 3 volts peak-to-peak with all the shaft currents safely discharging through the rings.

Learning Objectives: » Key Lesson 1: Uptime and reliability is key

for all systems » Key Lesson 2: VFD driven motors fail from

bearing currents » Key Lesson 3: Shaft grounding rings save

motor bearings » Key Lesson 4: Investment in prevention creates

huge ROI
