Their responsibility to design for maximum electrical efficiency and reliability give them unique insight into the evolving market \u2014 and put them under the most pressure to complete work in a tight deadline; their number one pain point, according to the survey.<\/li>\n<li>The amount of time electrical contractors will spend on hyperscale projects is expected to increase for mostly all members of the value chain. They too are worried about timelines, but 70% are also looking forward to the opportunity to gain new skills and expertise.<\/li>\n<li>The mantra for most construction managers when working in hyperscale projects is \u201cgood help is hard to find.\u201d The majority of these respondents feel the pain of the growing labor shortage more than any other in the trades. At the same time, they\u2019re ready for the chance to innovate, claimed the majority (59%).<\/li>\n<li>Distributors\/integrators are dealing with unprecedented complexity involved with the exponential amount of systems involved in hyperscale projects. Concurrently, 57% cite scale of deployment as their biggest area of opportunity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Learn More About the Impact of Hyperscalers on the Data Center Market<\/h2>\n<p> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-61520\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.se.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/998_20464630_GMA_300x200_1_jpg_g_Vlk8CX.jpg\" alt=\"man looking at a laptop in a data center\" width=\"820\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.se.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/998_20464630_GMA_300x200_1_jpg_g_Vlk8CX.jpg 820w, https:\/\/blog.se.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/998_20464630_GMA_300x200_1_jpg_g_Vlk8CX-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.se.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/998_20464630_GMA_300x200_1_jpg_g_Vlk8CX-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>These points are just a snapshot of the data and analysis found in our full report \u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/go.schneider-electric.com\/US_201910_PersonaSurvey_CSP_LP.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>The Impact of Hyperscale Data Centers: How the wave is changing the value chain<\/em><\/a> \u2014 where we explore a new way of working through the value chain and how to be the dependable partner in the hyperscale data center era.
