By MYBRANDBOOK
Compass Datacenters has roped in Sudhir Kalra as Senior Vice President of Global Operations, a new role responsible for operations of all the company's domestic and international data centers.
Kalra, a well known name throughout the industry joins Compass from Morgan Stanley, where he was Executive Director, Global Head of Enterprise Data Centers.
"Sudhir's addition to our leadership team is another significant hire for Compass. Our continued growth requires a cohesive, scalable global operations strategy, and there is no better person for that job than Sudhir. Under Sudhir's leadership, we intend to expand our leadership in solving issues related to existing industry labor shortages and talent gaps through continuing to combine the use of data analytics, technology and best practices from multiple industries into our operational processes and procedures. Sudhir will be instrumental in our efforts to eliminate the potential for operator error by continuing the enhancement of our automated checklist software, developing new predictive maintenance capabilities and cultivating new sources of talent through our work with multiple organizations representing the veteran community," said Chris Crosby, CEO of Compass Datacenters.
Kalra joined Morgan Stanley as Global Head of Engineering in 2007 and migrated in early 2008 to join, and ultimately head, its newly-formed Enterprise Data Centers unit, where his presence was vital for mission critical support of all data centers worldwide – a role that involved leadership of a team with more than 350 people and an annual budget of hundreds of millions.
Prior to Morgan Stanley, Kalra was Director, Corporate Real Estate and Services - Global Head of Engineering and Critical Systems, at Deutsche Bank where he was responsible for mission critical support of a real estate portfolio comprised of over 30 million square feet. He began his career in technical roles at Securities Industry Automation Corporation supporting mission critical operations for the NYSE and American Stock Exchange. Kalra holds a BEEE from City University of NY and a MSEE from NYU-Poly University.
"I am excited about joining Compass and working with its well-respected leadership team to help the company realize its vision for global growth. The data center industry is changing rapidly to support what companies and consumers will need over the next decade, and I feel strongly that Compass has the right strategy and the right approach to data center design, construction and operations to be the true market leader. I am privileged to have the opportunity to work with this team and support Compass' vision, and I hope to leave a lasting legacy through the work we are doing at this important moment in the industry's history," said Sudhir Kalra.
