Company Overview

Vertiv is a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions for data centers, communication networks and commercial and industrial environments. Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, the company designs, manufactures and services equipment and software that support power availability, thermal management and IT infrastructure management for a broad set of end markets, including hyperscale and enterprise data centers, colocation providers, telecom operators and industrial customers.

The company's product portfolio includes uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), power distribution units (PDUs), battery and DC power systems, precision cooling and thermal management equipment, racks and enclosures, and integrated modular infrastructure. Vertiv also offers software and monitoring platforms that provide remote management, analytics and predictive maintenance, along with lifecycle services such as commissioning, maintenance, spare parts and field service to help customers maximize uptime and efficiency.

Vertiv traces its origins to the former Emerson Network Power business, which was acquired by Platinum Equity and rebranded as Vertiv in 2016. Since then, the company has operated as an independent specialist in critical infrastructure, serving customers across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Asia-Pacific region through a combination of direct sales, channel partners and service networks.

Vertiv positions itself around reliability, operational resiliency and energy efficiency as data growth and edge computing place greater demands on power and cooling systems. The company focuses on engineering, global manufacturing and service capabilities to deliver customized solutions for large-scale data centers as well as distributed and edge deployments.
