Provide BOQ/quantity guidance and vendor-neutral recommendations; support proposal/tender documentation when needed. Align recommendations to international standards and good practice (e.g., Uptime concepts, TIA-942, ISO/IEC 22237, ASHRAE). Qualifications Required Experience Proven experience in data center assessment, design, or operations (enterprise or colocation).
