CDP helps facility managers, IT leaders, and contractors in Southern Wisconsin keep critical infrastructure operating smoothly. From design to installation to ongoing service, you get one partner who builds it right and keeps it running.
If you've been responsible for a critical room for any length of time, at least one of these is a story you've lived. We've heard most of them. We've fixed many. They aren't bad luck. They're what happens without one accountable partner.
Equipment that fails silently. Three-year batteries that don't make it past two.
An HVAC vendor who knows the equipment but doesn't understand the network side of the room.
Vendors who blame each other while the room runs hot.
A 3 a.m. drive to push a button on a compressor because nobody set up the alert right.
An RMA that takes weeks across multiple departments asking for the same information.
A "fully redundant" UPS that turned out to mean redundant inverters, not redundant feeds.
You're responsible for the room, but you didn't sign up to be a UPS specialist, a refrigerant tech, and a battery analyst at the same time. Inheriting unfamiliar gear from a predecessor or chasing three vendors during an outage isn't the job.
For 50 years, CDP has been the team behind the rooms in Southern Wisconsin that can't go down. Field engineers in Waukesha and Madison who know the equipment, the climate, and the local utilities. The exclusive Vertiv / Liebert representative for the region. Some of our clients have trusted us for decades.

Four roles we work with most often. Here's what we do for each one.
We catch the failure before your alarm goes off.
Battery firmware checked. Refrigerant levels logged. CRAC alert thresholds tuned to page the right person at the right level. So you stop being the one who finds out at 2 a.m.
See a sample maintenance plan →A spec you can defend in front of finance.
We guide you through the process, size for what your room actually runs, point out what's worth over-spec'ing, and give you the numbers so you can defend it yourself.
Get a second opinion on a quote →We make sure the install doesn't embarrass you.
Pre-install configuration. Day-of project execution support. A person on call if something doesn't fit once it's on site. We make you look good to your client.
See how we back contractors →We do the math. You take the credit.
Load calculations, alternates, and drawings on your timeline. Pre-vetted equipment that matches your spec. CDP stays behind the work. You stay the engineer of record.
Send us a project to spec →We've helped customers all across Southern Wisconsin, using a simple process.
Set up a call so we understand your situation, needs, and goals. Then we come on site, you walk us through the room, and we share what we're noticing. We'll tell you if we're the right fit.
We build the plan around your actual room and load. Then we sit down with you, walk through every line, and revise until it's right. No surprises in the proposal, no surprises in the install.
Field engineers from Waukesha or Madison install it, the same people who drew up the plan. After that, quarterly maintenance and firmware tracking. When something needs attention, you call us, not a national dispatch line.
Engineered systems sized for the actual load and environment. Proactive firmware, battery, refrigerant, and filter maintenance so failures don't surprise you. Lifecycle planning that turns capex into a forecast, not a crisis.
One phone call covers cooling and power. One team owns design through service. No handoff, no finger-pointing, no juggling three contracts during an outage.
Field engineers based in Waukesha and Madison. Decades-long client relationships across data centers, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. Institutional memory across multiple equipment generations.
