Vertiv has announced the acquisition of BMarko Structures LLC (BMarko), a U.S.-based provider of custom-engineered structural fabrication. As artificial intelligence (AI) data centre deployments accelerate, the infrastructure layer is under growing pressure to deliver faster and at scale. This acquisition vertically integrates a critical structural fabrication specialization into Vertiv’s infrastructure solutions business in North America, which is expected to strengthen supply capability, rapidly expand engineering and manufacturing capacity, and enhance Vertiv’s ability to deliver scalable manufactured, prefabricated, and converged infrastructure with greater speed, control, customization, and executional discipline.
BMarko has demonstrated its differentiated structural fabrication capabilities, engineering depth, and ability to support highly customized infrastructure requirements, during prior, long-term project experience with Vertiv. Bringing this capability in-house is expected to strengthen execution, improve material and process control, and enhance Vertiv’s ability to support customers as infrastructure requirements continue to evolve.
Commenting on the announcement, chief executive officer, Vertiv, said, “AI is reshaping infrastructure requirements, with customers placing greater demands on time-to-capacity, flexibility, and efficiency across the infrastructure layer. This acquisition strengthens Vertiv’s ability to help customers move faster, with better systems-level performance and control, as infrastructure demands continue to grow in complexity.”
