“Achieving a Tier IV Fault Tolerant Design Certification illustrates that the facility meets the highest standards for infrastructure functionality and capacity as demonstrated on the design documents,” Duffin says.

“This ensures that plans are configured to meet uptime goals and provide the sustainable business critical infrastructure needed, and is an important first step toward Tier Certification of Constructed Facility.
