Due Diligence
Data center due diligence requires a rare combination of technical depth, financial fluency, and operational experience. Most advisory firms bring one or two of these — Skyline brings all three, drawn from direct experience managing one of the largest institutional data center portfolios in the world. George leads every engagement personally — there are no junior analysts interpreting what they see on a site walk or in a lease abstract.
Technical review of mechanical, electrical, and cooling infrastructure against claimed specifications and redundancy ratings
Lease and contract review — evaluating tenant quality, term structure, escalation provisions, and renewal risk
Financial workstream support — validating NOI, expense assumptions, and capital expenditure requirements
Operational assessment — staffing, vendor contracts, maintenance history, and compliance posture
Market context — how the asset compares to comparable facilities in the same market on power, pricing, and competitiveness
Who this is for: Institutional investors, asset managers, and family offices evaluating a data center acquisition who want an experienced operator’s perspective — not just a checklist.
