A Utah-based manufacturer of integrated, custom engineered data center technology selected SkySong in Scottsdale for its Arizona office.

IE Corporation has signed a lease for a 2,336-square-foot space in SkySong 2, the company’s first permanent office space in Arizona. The space is one of several ready-to-occupy spec suites at SkySong, offering companies accelerated speed to market, according to a press release.

IE works in engineering and manufacturing of data center technology including power distribution skids, generator enclosures, tanks and packaging, electric switchgear, packaging and integration and chilled water pump packages. Its customers include various colocation and hyperscalers.

IE has manufacturing and operation locations across the United States including Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Illinois and Ohio to provide nationwide support.

It recently purchased a modular data center and software company called Baselayer, which will relocate to the SkySong office. Baselayer is a modular data center industry with about 200 megawatts of deployed capacity across three continents.

IE is bringing Baselayer into its Mission Critical business segment, garnering support and management from Bobby Houston, IE’s vice chairman and head of the Mission Critical Business, a release states.

“We are pleased to relocate the Baselayer team to SkySong to join the ranks of other hi-tech and innovational companies. We look forward to a long and prosperous future at SkySong,” Kindra Martone, VP of data center strategy for Baselayer, said in a prepared statement.

Sharon Harper --- chairman and CEO of Plaza Companies, the project’s master developer --- welcomed IE and said it is an ideal fit at SkySong.

“IE Corporation is at the forefront of innovative data center technology engineering and manufacturing and they are exactly the type of company we welcome as part of SkySong,” Ms. Harper said in a prepared statement. “We are excited to see what kind of impact they will have and are pleased that SkySong will be a home for them.”

Sethuraman Panchanathan, executive vice president of Knowledge Enterprise and chief research and innocation officer at Arizona State University, said cybersecurity is important to all businesses.

“It’s gratifying to have an industry leader like Intermountain Electronics locating in SkySong and expanding its presence in the Phoenix area,” he said in a prepared statement.

The Coppola Cheney Group of Lee & Associates, SkySong’s leasing broker represented the property ownership group. Jason Moore of JLL represented Intermountain Electronics in the transaction.
