Manufacturing Data Center Infrastructure for Rapid Growth

The Challenge: Speed, Scale, and Supply Chain Pressure

The data center ecosystem is evolving quickly, driven by cloud growth, AI workloads, and increased demand for secure, reliable digital infrastructure. For this manufacturer, accelerating product launch timelines while maintaining consistent quality became a significant challenge. At the same time, tariffs and global supply chain volatility were pushing the company to shift more production to domestic partners to support U.S.-based data center expansion.

Adding complexity, the customer’s products required large, multi-material metal and mechanical assemblies with integrated powder coating and finishing. Not every manufacturer could support these requirements at the speed, scale, and quality demanded by hyperscale and enterprise customers. The manufacturer needed a partner capable of ramping production quickly, maintaining tight tolerances, and scaling capacity as demand continued to grow.

The DeWys Solution

DeWys provided a manufacturing and scaling approach purpose-built for data center infrastructure products. This included full-service metal fabrication and large-scale mechanical assemblies across multiple materials, along with integrated powder coating and finishing. By offering finished assemblies rather than individual components, DeWys simplified the customer’s supply chain and reduced downstream handling.

Dedicated assembly and testing capabilities were established specifically for data center-related products, ensuring consistency, throughput, and repeatable quality. DeWys also brought strong engineering and technical expertise to the program, helping accelerate the transition from prototype builds to full-scale production. Just as importantly, the production model was designed with future growth in mind, allowing capacity to expand as the customer’s programs scaled.

Implementation and Execution

DeWys partnered with the customer early in the process, working collaboratively to translate product requirements into a manufacturable solution and a realistic ramp plan. Engineering support played a critical role in refining assembly methods, defining test considerations, and creating production documentation that supported long-term repeatability.

As programs moved into production, DeWys executed builds using dedicated assembly and testing processes designed to support both consistency and volume. Capacity planning and continuous improvement initiatives were applied throughout the program, ensuring production could scale smoothly as demand increased and product configurations evolved.

Results and Long-Term Benefits

The partnership delivered measurable results. The customer achieved faster time-to-launch for new and evolving data center products while securing a stable domestic manufacturing solution amid tariffs and logistics risk. With improved ability to ramp and scale production, the manufacturer is now better positioned to support ongoing industry growth.

Most importantly, the repeatable manufacturing and testing approach established by our US metal fabrication company supports long-term quality, throughput, and cost control as data center infrastructure demands continue to rise.
