Executing a Turbo Speed Deployment for a Major Automobile Manufacturer
Case Studies
Executive Summary
A large automobile manufacturer needed to stand up a critical data center — fast. With an immovable go-live date, multiple vendors in play, and a national rollout riding on the outcome, there was no room for error. Their existing IT support provider recognized the need for a specialist and brought in Park Place Technologies.
Park Place mobilized in four weeks: 70+ technicians working three shifts, an onsite technical lead making real-time decisions as conditions evolved, dedicated project managers enforcing change tracking across vendors, and a solution architect continuously refining documentation for consistency. Scope expanded mid-project to include structured copper and fiber cabling — absorbed without disruption.
The result: all work completed across the 30,000-square-foot facility within eight weeks. The customer praised Park Place’s execution quality, ability to scale quickly, and composure under pressure. Park Place was then selected to support additional sites in the national rollout.
Key Takeaways
- Scale when it counts: When timelines shifted, Park Place added resources immediately to keep the project on track — no renegotiation, no delays.
- The industry’s largest field network: Park Place’s badged field engineer network is unmatched — it’s what made a deployment of this scale possible from a single provider.
- One partner, expanded scope: Structured cabling was added mid-project alongside the initial deployment — and Park Place can layer in hardware maintenance, software support, and managed services too.
- Any team, any size: Whether you’re managing a single site or a national rollout, Park Place’s Professional Services project managers handle the coordination complexity so your team doesn’t have to.
