CEVA Logistics is providing AirTrunk with end-to-end logistics solutions for its data centres across Australia and Malaysia that support cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) operations.
AirTrunk is a hyperscale data centre specialist providing a scalable platform for cloud computing, artificial intelligence and data-intensive customers across the Asia Pacific and Middle East (APME) region.
The company’s Sydney location is among Australia’s largest hyperscale data centre campuses, serving the needs of the country’s eastern seaboard.
In parallel, the two facilities in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, address the rapidly growing digital needs of Southeast Asia.
CEVA Logistics is providing AirTrunk with end-to-end logistics solutions across Australia and Malaysia, including warehousing, domestic transport, customs clearance and integrated project management.
Having successfully finished the first six-month phase of the major infrastructure project in Sydney, CEVA Logistics is now supporting the Johor project.
CEVA manages the data centre’s multi-site operational model throughout the construction journey, handling both the specialised storage and complex transport of heavy-duty infrastructure, such as 45-ton generators and oversized air-cooling towers.
At the same time, CEVA teams manage critical components related to cooling and climate control.
Guy Meredith, vice president of contract logistics, Asia Pacific (APAC), CEVA Logistics, said: “As AI technologies continue to accelerate, we are seeing a significant rise in supply chain demands driven by the rapid expansion of data centres in the Asia Pacific region, and globally.
“With our strong network in APAC and the support of 1,700 sites worldwide, we are committed to delivering reliable, end-to-end logistics solutions for our customers across technology, industrial projects, consumer sectors, and beyond.”
Daniel Checchin, associate vice president, supply chain & procurement, AirTrunk, said: “Delivering hyperscale data centres at this pace requires absolute confidence in our supply chain – from the international movement of major equipment through to safe storage, staging and delivery to site.
“CEVA’s end-to-end logistics capability, local execution and proactive coordination have supported our hyperscale data centre in Western Sydney by helping us move critical components safely, efficiently and with greater predictability.
“Strong partners like CEVA play an important role in enabling AirTrunk to deliver the resilient, high-performance data centre platform our customers rely on.”
