What our transaction and technical support covers
Our partner agents, financial advisers and digital infrastructure consultants support landowners, developers, compute buyers and operators before and alongside commercial introductions:
Site screening and land feasibility:
Screening candidate land parcels and powered sites against published network capacity, substation proximity, planning context and fibre routes, backed by 683,150 Australian land parcels screened against published network capacity and UK site scoring on firm grid headroom, water, fibre and zoning.Capacity procurement support:
Structuring wholesale data centre colocation, powered-shell, build-to-suit and AI load briefs across MW scale, rack density, liquid or air cooling, redundancy and delivery timing, with operator proposals compared side by side.Transaction preparation and positioning:
Preparing site, capacity and project briefs for land sales, leases, acquisitions, pre-lets and development joint ventures so opportunities go to the right buyers, developers and operators.Specialist consultant introductions:
When a project requires formal engineering design, grid connection studies, statutory planning applications, environmental surveys or legal drafting, we introduce specialist firms from our network.
What to include in your brief
To match your requirement or asset with the right people in our network and prepare relevant transaction or technical support, include five core details:
Location preference:
Target country, state, metro market or submarket.Target capacity:
Power requirement or firm grid allocation in megawatts (MW), land acreage, or hall footprint.Facility specification:
Target workload (AI, cloud or enterprise), rack density, cooling architecture and redundancy topology.Project timeline:
Target land acquisition, lease commencement, construction start or energisation date.Commercial structure:
Preferred deal route, such as land sale, development joint venture, powered shell, turnkey pre-let or asset acquisition.
Opportunities and requirements are put in front of matched buyers, developers and operators discreetly, off-market.
Market directories and regional coverage
Our transaction and technical support draws on our site-finding and signals engine and regional directories:
- 2,004 project signals tracked across Australia (215) and the UK (1,789), including 1,340 planning records and 663 operator announcements.
- 683,150 Australian land parcels indexed across all 8 jurisdictions and screened against published network capacity, alongside UK sites scored on firm grid headroom, water, fibre and zoning, with flood and protected areas excluded.
- 115 facility profiles and 44 regional operator profiles across the Australian data centres directory and the UK data centres directory.
- Operating-facility and data centre colocation market coverage across key metros in the United States and Canada.
- Guides and benchmarks covering data centre build costs, site selection and data centre investment.
Diligence questions before committing capital
Before committing capital, buyers and developers must evaluate critical infrastructure dependencies and test key project assumptions.
Key diligence questions include:
- Grid connection status: Is power reservation non-firm, conditional, or fully committed? What substation works and energisation dates are confirmed by the network operator?
- Commercial terms: Can grid allocations and land options be cleanly transferred to an incoming entity? Are there take-or-pay covenants or curtailment rules?
- Cooling and water: Does the cooling design require municipal water, or can closed-loop heat rejection be supported? What local extraction rules or discharge limits apply?
- Planning and zoning: Does planning permit data centre use by right, or is rezoning required? What restrictions apply to building heights, setbacks, and acoustic limits?
- Network connectivity: Are there distinct physical fibre routes to the boundary? How close are the nearest carrier-neutral facilities and national routes?
