Data Center Quality Management

Elevating Data Center Quality in a Rapidly Scaling World

AI, cloud computing, and digital services are fueling unprecedented growth in global data center infrastructure. Meeting demand by 2030 will require an estimated $6.7 trillion in capital investment—but scale alone isn’t enough. Quality must keep pace.

As supply chains shift through reshoring, near-shoring, and evolving trade policies, new suppliers and facilities are entering the market—many without a proven track record in high-reliability delivery.

That’s why TIA has officially launched the development of a new Data Center Quality Standard.

Administered by TIA and grounded in decades of technical leadership through the QuEST Forum, this initiative draws on over 20 years of empirical field data and proven quality system methodologies. It’s designed to meet the moment—and we’re inviting industry leaders to help shape it.

Whether you're an operator, OEM, supplier, or standards expert, your voice matters. Help us build a standard that reflects the needs of today—and the demands of tomorrow.

Join Us to:

  • Define a trusted framework for quality across operators, customers, and regulators
  • Streamline supplier qualification and reduce duplicative audits
  • Establish a shared vocabulary and process set for consistent performance
  • Address uptime, sustainability, and lifecycle management
