The digital economy has its own megaprojects now. Where once refineries and chemical plants dominated, today hyperscale data centres are the new refineries of the digital era.

Data is the currency of the modern economy — powering AI, finance, healthcare, logistics, and communication. Yet the infrastructure that stores and processes this data is under unprecedented strain.
Global demand for hyperscale and HPC facilities is outpacing supply. Rising energy costs, material shortages, and geopolitical risk have made delivering new capacity harder than ever. Failure isn’t an option: downtime or delay can cost millions daily.
In oil, gas, and chemicals, billion-euro facilities had to be delivered with absolute certainty. Risk frameworks, governance standards, and commissioning discipline were the backbone of every successful project.
We’ve distilled decades of standards and playbooks into The Hive Platform — a digital hub for project certainty. It connects insights, lessons, and frameworks in one place, giving clients confidence across every stage of delivery.
Data has never been more important — and neither has the certainty of the infrastructure that supports it.
