Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery
Environmental Audit of Electronic Equipment Facilities Services
Your Business Challenge
There are many environmental factors that can have an adverse effect on electronic equipment–dust, humidity, temperature, and airborne pollutants to name a few.
Inadequate control of these factors can lead to significant equipment damage and numerous outages. The financial loss associated with such damage is even more significant, with the cost of cleaning contaminated electronic equipment often exceeding several hundred thousand dollars.
Companies need a cost-effective method to test their environment and identify potential problems that impact their electronic equipment’s reliability and performance.
We have your solution
The Risk Management experts at Telcordia Technologies can perform an environmental audit that includes on-site testing and evaluation of the environmental controls for your network equipment locations.
The extensive audit will determine if the controls are substantial enough to ensure long-term equipment performance and reliability. A written report from the audit is provided with recommendations and actions for improvement.
Telcordia has gained extensive knowledge and expertise on contamination issues from participating in the recovery efforts of some of the largest contamination disasters in history; including terrorist attacks, fires, explosions, vandalism, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, loss of environmental controls, and chemical spills.
In addition, we are a leading contributor to environmental and indoor air quality national requirements and standards development.
