Mission Critical

Control Systems Built for Mission-Critical Infrastructure

A data center runs on power, cooling, controls, monitoring, and networking that all have to behave as one system. Too often they arrive as separate proprietary packages from separate vendors, and the integration risk lands on the owner.

RED Group has delivered Operational Technology and Industrial Control Systems for critical infrastructure since 2006. Data centers sit squarely in that experience: facilities where power, cooling, and controls have to be engineered together, and where a commissioning shortcut becomes an operations problem years later.

We work the full control system lifecycle — conceptual consulting, detailed engineering, systems integration, panel construction, testing, installation, commissioning, and long-term maintenance. Because our engineers come out of the field, our designs reflect what actually gets built and maintained.

DATA CENTER INFRASTRUCTURE IS COMPLEX. INTEGRATION SHOULDN’T BE.

A data center brings together power, cooling, controls, monitoring, and networking that need to operate as one coordinated environment.

RED Group connects those pieces through integrated BMS, EPMS, DCIM, SCADA, control systems, and OT networks — providing engineering and execution expertise from design through commissioning and long-term support.

We implement open, non-proprietary, fully customizable control systems that integrate with the stack a facility already runs, so our clients keep real ownership of their own systems.

  • BMS, EPMS & DCIM programming and commissioning
  • Chiller control, SCADA/HMI development & historian configuration
  • Control system design, engineering & standardization
  • OT network design, configuration & cybersecurity

Data Center Controls, From Design Through Commissioning

RED Group supports data center projects across the full control system lifecycle, from initial engineering and standardization through panel fabrication, programming, testing, installation, commissioning, troubleshooting, and maintenance.

BMS, EPMS & DCIM

Programming and commissioning for the systems operators use to monitor and manage critical facility infrastructure.

  • BMS & EPMS programming and commissioning
  • DCIM integration
  • Chiller control systems
  • SCADA/HMI development
  • Analytics, reporting & historian configuration

Control Systems & OT Networks

Engineering the control and network infrastructure that connects critical systems across the facility.

  • Control system design & engineering
  • Control system integration & standardization
  • OT network design & configuration
  • Firewall & switch configuration

Panel Production & Testing

Our UL-listed panel shop in New Orleans builds to the production and testing demands of large-scale data center projects: chiller control, power, generator, ATS, load shedding, pump, field I/O, network, relay protection, and water treatment panels.

  • UL-listed fabrication under our own roof
  • Customer-witnessed Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT)
  • Schedule and quality controlled in-house

Field Services

Experienced field execution beyond design and fabrication.

  • Installation, testing & commissioning
  • Troubleshooting & ongoing maintenance
  • Modernization without interrupting operations
  • Teams out of New Orleans, Lafayette, Houston & DFW

Open Systems, No Vendor Lock-In

Most data center control packages arrive tied to the vendor that supplied the equipment. Servicing, expansion, and troubleshooting then run through that one relationship, on their schedule and at their price.

We build differently. Our systems are open, non-proprietary, and fully customizable, integrating with the technologies already in place rather than replacing them. That shortens deployment, improves uptime, and removes the dependency on a single vendor for equipment servicing — so the facility stays serviceable by whoever the owner chooses.

Nearly 20 Years in Critical Infrastructure

Since 2006, RED Group has been a trusted partner in OT/ICS solutions for critical infrastructure sectors. We deliver modernization strategies that improve efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and enhance cyber resiliency — often without interrupting operations. Inc. Magazine recently named us one of the top-growing private companies in the United States.

Our team is highly skilled across the platforms data center projects actually run on:

  • PLC: Rockwell, Siemens, Modicon, Opto22, Schneider Electric
  • SCADA / HMI: Ignition, Aveva/Wonderware, FactoryTalk, PlantPAx, WinCC
  • OT Security: Cisco, Dragos, Agilicus, Aria, Claroty, Xage
