Wholesale Data Center Portfolio

Focus: International Expansion, Data Center Development, Risk Management

The Challenge

A US-based wholesale data center developer sought to expand their portfolio internationally. With a $500M project portfolio on the line, the executive team needed to evaluate the intersection of utility readiness, regulatory risks, and volatile construction costs across multiple global markets.

The Alpen Approach

Alpen Associates delivered the strategic intelligence necessary for high-velocity global deployment:

  • Feasibility Analysis: We conducted exhaustive regulatory risk profiles and utility readiness assessments for international sites.

  • Risk-to-Reward Modeling: Evaluated local policy landscapes and construction cost variables to determine the defensibility of development schedules.

  • Decision Architecture: Developed a proprietary "Go/No-Go" framework for the COO to streamline capital allocation.

The Result

By providing a data-driven roadmap, Alpen ensured that capital was only deployed toward high-viability sites. This strategic oversight protected the $500M portfolio from high-risk markets and ensured a defensible path to global expansion.
