Set Up Compliance Tracking in Infodeck

Follow these steps to automate your data centre's compliance program. Each inspection from the checklist above becomes a scheduled, tracked, and documented task.

1

Create Recurring Work Orders by Frequency

Group compliance tasks by frequency and create recurring work orders. Infodeck auto-generates them on schedule.

Weekly: Generator Test
Fire Code compliance
Monthly: Fire Alarm Test
SS 545 requirement
Annual: FSC Renewal
SCDF licensed contractor
2

Connect IoT Sensors for Continuous Monitoring

Temperature sensors for SS 564 compliance (18-27C), power meters for PUE tracking, and cooling tower monitors for NEA compliance. Smart Workflows create work orders when thresholds are exceeded.

IF server inlet temp > 27C then Create work order and Alert NOC team
3

Generate Audit-Ready Reports

When SCDF, BCA, or NEA officers arrive, export complete compliance history with one click. All inspections, PUE readings, and corrective actions documented for regulatory audits and BCA Green Mark certification.
