Development & construction

Real estate built around
the Ai stack.

We retain our established real estate and construction business while expanding development around the Ai stack. We identify suitable sites and assets, coordinate zoning and permitting, and structure a turnkey path to construction, technology integration and management.

Illustrative data center and Ai facility environment

01 · Development scope

Data centers & Ai factories

Facility development around demanding compute requirements, including Tier III design objectives where specified.

  • Site and building strategy
  • Civil works, facility and technology fit-out coordination
  • Power, cooling and security interfaces
Explore the scope

A turnkey development scope aligning land, buildings, electrical and cooling systems with the operator’s compute brief, phased capacity plan and commissioning requirements. Tier III design objectives and any certification work are specified separately for the project.

02 · Development scope

Far edge & edge facilities

Compact and distributed sites closer to networks, users and workloads.

  • Site sourcing, zoning and adaptation
  • Modular and existing building options
  • Connectivity and operating access
Explore the scope

Assess space, utility access, network entry, resilience and local permissions before defining a fit for purpose facility.

03 · Development scope

Cable landing stations

The land and facilities connecting subsea routes to the network.

  • Landing site, property and permitting interfaces
  • BMH to CLS route coordination
  • Station and backhaul facility readiness
Explore the scope

Coordinate the beach, beach manhole, inland cable route and cable landing station with specialist subsea and terrestrial teams. Setbacks and locations depend on local engineering and permissions.

Real estate & asset management

Continuing property development, construction, renovation and asset management, with suitable assets assessed for Ai infrastructure.

  • Land and property assessment
  • Construction, restoration and renovation
  • Property management, owner representation and asset care
Explore the scope

Evaluate new construction and existing assets against practical requirements, development constraints, cost and long term operating needs.

Turnkey development & delivery

From the site to an operating asset.

Far edge. Edge. Cable landing stations. Data centers. Ai factories.

Our approach brings site identification, zoning and permitting, facility design coordination, construction, technology fit-out and asset management into one development framework. The project team connects real estate and civil works to electrical systems, cooling, security, network entry and equipment installation requirements.

Property & approvals

Site control, zoning, environmental and permitting workstreams.

Power & connectivity

iNEW power interfaces and UNIFI Communications network requirements.

Capital & construction

UNIFI Capital financing workstreams and UNIFI Developers delivery coordination.

Technology & management

Specialist fit-out, commissioning, operating interfaces and asset care.

Continuing real estate activities

An existing business with a new development horizon.

Property development, construction, renovation, restoration and asset management remain part of our business. Alongside those activities, we assess land and buildings for the facilities that serve UNIFI’s Ai infrastructure strategy.

A property can be suitable for an existing use, an adaptation or a new technical facility. The site assessment, zoning and permissions, utility access and engineering brief determine the appropriate development route.

A practical starting point

What your project needs first.

01 · Requirements

A clear facility brief

Location, intended use, space, capacity assumptions, resilience and target delivery stages.

02 · Constraints

A site readiness review

Land rights, utilities, access, network entry, planning and environmental considerations.

03 · Execution

A delivery framework

Specialist work packages, responsibilities, cost planning and the route to commissioning.

Start with the site. Build around the requirement.
