Primary Data Center
Barnes Jewish Christian Healthcare
O’Fallon, MO
TW Constructors, in a joint venture with Clayco, completed a 34,700-square-foot
Primary Data Center for BJC HealthCare. Despite forty-six weather-related
delays, the new data center construction was completed two months ahead of
schedule.
BJC required a new primary data center as increasingly automated hospital
operations led to a higher demand for IT services. The data center houses 1,850
servers, 71 miles of copper cabling, 10.5 miles of fiber cabling and 345 databases.
This project included a significant investment in infrastructure equipment and a
hardened energy center to support Tier III, N+1 data center requirements.
Redundant mechanical and electrical systems were put in place to avoid outages,
and the critical structural design was built to withstand F-3 tornado conditions.
Additionally, the team completed site improvements and infrastructure at the
existing Progress West HealthCare Center site.
