Experts in Building for the Digital World
We recognize that data center projects demand a level of technical sophistication and execution discipline far beyond conventional construction. McGough has dedicated, multidisciplinary teams with experience delivering data center facilities at every scale — from secure, high-performance environments within existing buildings to standalone campuses supporting 400 MW and beyond. Our projects are delivered through rigorous coordination, precise MEP integration, and comprehensive quality management, ensuring schedule certainty and accelerated speed to market.
Understanding the Higher Purpose
When you need near-perfect performance in a data center, you need a construction partner you can trust. We are an EPC Power + Energy contractor, have Uptime Certified leaders and MEP experts on staff to handle the unique utility needs of a data center. We also have relationships with top subcontractors and equipment manufacturers so we can get your project from preconstruction through commissioning and online quickly. We understand the need for “Speed to Market” and will make every effort to meet the goals of the owner.
We have the experience and resources needed for modern data center construction, including supply chain management, off-site prefabrication, complicated configurations and building in remote locations with harsh environments. We have experience installing large generators, switchgear, chillers and the wiring and redundant systems thanks to our experience building Mission Critical projects in several industries.
Let us know how McGough can be your long-term partner to help manage and reduce the risks inherent in data center development and construction.
