With a production line that can achieve stock-to-dock shipment within six days, the IO Factory has developed the lowest-cost, rapid data center delivery mechanism in the industry

IT executives and data center professionals have fully awakened to the fact that it takes far too long and costs too much to build a traditional data center. That is why our customers turn to IO every day for state-of-the-art data center manufacturing. Employing world-class manufacturing best practices including lean production and total quality management, the IO Factory rapidly delivers the most reliable and cost-effective IO.Anywhere® modules to a growing base of customers and IO managed data center sites worldwide.

Located in Phoenix, Arizona, the factory employs over 50 trained data center technicians and specialized technology subcontractors to produce modules on multi-station assembly lines. Production follows a fully documented assembly process and as IO.Anywhere modules come off the line they are fully tested for function and performance at an on-site commissioning station. This process allows IO to always deliver the most reliable, cost-effective, quality assured modules anywhere in the world.

Product quality is inherent in the IO.Anywhere module designs that have matured through many cycles of continuous improvement based on customer feedback and close collaboration with data center operators, manufacturing staff, and infrastructure suppliers. This design quality is then manufactured with strict disciplines to ensure 100% conformance to designs and zero defects.

IO has adapted best practices from industry leaders to enable rapid response to our customers' diverse requirements. Using a push-pull planning and inventory management approach with delayed differentiation based on IO's proprietary data center platform, the IO Factory quickly and reliably responds to changes in customer demand, assuring delivery to forecasts with advanced order commitment. The modules can be shipped via truck, ship or plane to their final destination, ensuring your data center capacity is commissioned or expanded exactly when and how you need it.

IO has contracted with a third party logistics firm with freight forwarding experience to ensure timely delivery and clearance of shipments to sites worldwide with documented standard operating procedures for delivery and installation. With IO's proven track record in manufacturing, assembling and installing modules, the IO Factory is a strategic enabler in the rapid delivery of next-generation modular data centers.

IO continues to shift the paradigm from construction sites to modular deployments by bringing standardized, tested components to our customers, ensuring that they can have their data centers up and running cost-effectively in as little as 90 days..
