SAFE, SECURE END-OF-LIFE SUPPORT
Sunspeed’s Data Centre Decommissioning service supports the full removal of legacy or end-of-life infrastructure from live environments. Whether retiring racks, clearing full sites or consolidating systems, we manage the decommissioning process from start to finish, including asset audits, risk assessment, power-down, de-racking, secure transport and data destruction.
Our experienced teams operate in live environments with minimal disruption, working to detailed project plans and in close coordination with customer stakeholders. Every step is documented, traceable and aligned to internal governance and compliance requirements.
ASSET AUDIT & PLANNING
Full audit of infrastructure, cabling and dependencies to define scope, sequence and risk controls for safe decommissioning.
DEVICE DE-INSTALLATION
Controlled disconnection, power isolation and physical removal of equipment, conducted by experienced Data Centre engineers.
LIFECYCLE SERVICES
Re-sale of assets with revenue sharing or WEEE compliant recycling with a Recycling Confirmation Certificate provided for compliance.
DATA DESTRUCTION
Fully certificated secure on-site of off-site destruction of data-bearing assets using appropriate methods: shredding, wiping or de-gaussing.
SUPPORTING YOUR STRATEGY
Decommissioning is a key enabler of wider infrastructure strategy. Whether part of a site exit, hardware refresh or service transformation, Sunspeed helps customers retire legacy environments in a controlled, auditable way.
By clearing out redundant assets, reclaiming capacity and ensuring secure data removal, we support the completion of IT lifecycles and create space for new infrastructure to be deployed. Our structured process helps organisations reduce risk while progressing major change with confidence and control.
THE FULL INFRASTRUCTURE LIFECYCLE
Decommissioning is the final stage in a broader infrastructure programme. Sunspeed is able to support the deployment of new infrastructure, through any change initiatives that occur in it’s lifetime, as-well as proactive management of your estate to ensure responsiveness to your organisation’s IT strategy.
With a single team managing removal, logistics and disposal, customers benefit from reduced complexity, improved accountability and a safer outcome.
