Requirements Cleaning Requirements: The contractor shall furnish labor, equipment and supplies for datacenter under plenum, floor surface, equipment, environment and air quality cleaning services resulting in the prevention of downtime and increasing the reliability of our data center while adhering to the sensitivity and safety of our mission critical operations. Cleaning services in a data center, telecommunications rooms and IT closets have to be carried out by controlled environment specialists that understand the data center dynamics and how to decontaminate these areas without causing downtime or microscopic long-term damage. Data Center Cleaners decontaminate (clean) equipment and supplies and their effects on different surfaces, energies and microscopic air particulate using testing instruments and specialized cleaning equipment and chemicals. Since there are static, particulate, network signals and heat sources in the Data Center that can cause disastrous catastrophic loss of uptime to the Library of Congress, cause fires and Indoor Air Pollution there are several standards that help keep these environments safe including: American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Standards. All areas are to be cleaned to minimum levels outlined in the ASHRAE 2009a white paper report and ISO Standard 14644-1.
