The Bridgestone Americas Akron Data Center Upgrade transformed an 84,000-square-foot office building and corporate data center through a comprehensive renovation that included a new N+2 electrical service, enhanced cooling systems, upgraded fire protection, a new generator yard, and a complete administrative office remodel.
To maintain uninterrupted operations throughout construction, the project was completed in seven carefully planned phases, allowing employees to relocate into newly renovated spaces as work progressed. The facility’s critical corporate printing operations, which process sensitive information, remained fully operational through extensive security, confidentiality, and continuity measures.
The result is a modernized, reliable, and resilient facility designed to support Bridgestone’s critical business operations for years to come.
