Sandy Ward Email & Phone Number

Greater Nashville Area, TN

I am now responsible for the Nashville and Atlanta markets. I am managing the Facility staff in both markets.

Nashville Tennessee

I am responsible for all facility work at all Flexential Nashville area data centers. I am expected to insure all UPS systems (including batteries), all HVAC systems, all chilled water plants, and all generators are online and available to support 100% uptime for our facilities.

• My job is to maintain uptime of a 5000 square foot data center. I schedule/perform preventative and remedial maintenance on the electrical, cooling, facility monitoring, generator, facility access, and UPS battery.

• My work here was in the facility management group for the IT department. I was brought in to help develop plans for the renovation of a 20,000 square foot data center in Memphis. Once the center was up we then had to.
• In addition to the build out and move I also had to maintain uptime in six other corporate data centers across the country. In those cases we acted as escalation services for those facilities, going onsite when issues.

Responsible for all IT operations. Purchase, installation, maintenance on all systems. Responsible for vendor relationships and contracts.

While at WebMD I held several positions. I was responsible for data center operations for a while. I was responsible for system administration. I was responsible for facility infrastructure. I was responsible for operations training.
