Two hundred and forty megawatts across eight halls, a gen yard, and a commissioning programme that runs from factory witness to a full integrated systems test. Ground Reality carries the evidence for all of it on one chain — every check tied to the frame, the room and the revision that proves it.

Two hundred and forty megawatts, eight halls, and one of them in integrated systems test — flown in through the goods door and down a hundred and thirty-two metres of cold aisle while the racks come up row by row. Then the unit walks it on foot and reads what a commissioning pack never shows: the blanking gap, the bypass air, the busway tap running eight degrees warm.
Commissioning evidence lives on a shared drive: factory witness reports in one folder, static test sheets in another, IST results in a third, and none of it tied to the room it happened in.
Cx scripts run as structured gates by level and by system. Each result lands against the asset, the room and the dated frame that shows it installed — so the handover pack assembles itself as the work is witnessed instead of being chased in the last fortnight.
A fit-out contractor claims 1,400 racks landed, containment complete and tray pulled through. The hall says something else, and the claim is due on Friday.
Billing lines are tied to the frames that prove the installed work, line by line. Claimed and verified sit side by side with the difference dimensioned, so a payment conversation takes ten minutes and leaves a record behind it.
Once a hall is live, walking it means an escort, a permit and a security clearance. Thermal on the busway and the containment gets done when somebody is free, which is not often.
A robot runs the round instead: thermal, RGB and 360 down the hot aisle, along the busway and through the gen yard, four times a day, escort-free — every frame on the same record as the Cx evidence.

Pulled out of handover by evidencing checks as they are witnessed
The program runs on the commissioning calendar — hall by hall, level by level, witness by witness — so the evidence chain is built while the work happens, not chased across a shared drive in the last fortnight.
2×/day, one station per cold aisle
Racks, containment and the ceiling void on dated frames, front to rear — captured before the grid and the containment close over the work, so the hall's record shuts the same day the tile does.
