Case Study: Alvarez & Marsal achieves 78% cost savings and real-time data center visibility with QTS Realty Trust

Data center visibility drives 78% cost savings and time efficiencies for Alvarez & Marsal

Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) is a global professional services firm that needed to integrate its outsourced colocation into everyday business operations. The company wanted an on‑premise experience without an onsite team—gaining real‑time visibility into power, security and workflows—after its previous provider operated in a silo and was slow to respond.

A&M migrated to QTS and adopted the Service Delivery Platform (SDP), gaining on‑demand access to power analytics, user management, 3D visualization, remote‑hands tracking and automated cloud connections. QTS completed the move in 48 hours (fixing a power error in 20 minutes), enabling faster delivery, better security and data‑driven decisions; A&M reports a 78% reduction in data center costs and significant KPI and productivity improvements, supported by a highly responsive QTS team.
