About Data Center Equipment & Support
Our History
In 1988, what began as a one time project and led to a realization by Bob Pruitt, owner of Data Center Equipment & Support (DCES), that there could be many opportunities to help Data Center Managers to not only liquidate retired equipment, move data centers from one location to another, but to also retrofit aging equipment or find new & surplus equipment. In pursuing this opportunity, Bob realized that he had a gift to assist corporate management as a trouble shooter, equipment expediter and project manager for installing or de-installing equipment. Referrals quickly led to new business and a multi-million dollar company was created.
Under the name of DP Support & later Sure Companies, Bob created various companies to administer specialized needs for Data Center Managers: air conditioning, gen sets, power distribution equipment, installation and de-installation, even acting as a second opinion for the Purchasing Manager to ensure that the right equipment at the right price was being purchased. He then began recruiting Engineers, Technicians and Administrators to help oversee the support services that he was providing to Data Center Managers. It became a “niche service” offering that proved to be successful and effective. Referrals continued as did repeat business.
A 30,000 square foot building was purchased in Plano, Texas and the warehouse was full of retrofitted data center equipment with extended warranties that became a wise alternative to buying brand new in a stressful economy. Better value was available and corporate capital equipment could be upgraded and aging equipment could either be replaced or upgraded without management having to worry about the five year fear that haunts Data Center Managers. Almost 300 turnkey projects have been accomplished that have included planning, design and construction projects from 1,000 square feet to over 50,000 square feet. Single point of responsibility and accountability, planning and executing directly with Data Center Managers and their staff has been an effective business management practice. We look forward to working with you in the future and showing exactly what Data Center Support & Equipment has to offer our customers.
