UNS

What UNS does

UNS, LLC (Universal Networking Service) is a privately held U.S. integrator of critical physical infrastructure for data centers and mission-critical facilities, operating under a "Single Solution Provider" model that bundles power, cooling, fire suppression, security, and building management systems with design, engineering, installation, maintenance, and recycling services. The firm is headquartered in Denver, Colorado, and serves small-to-medium enterprises across at least six states (Oklahoma, Texas, Indiana, Illinois, Colorado, California), with a customer base that spans education, municipal government, healthcare, defense, oil and gas, and colocation/technology operators.

The core product catalog is sourced through OEM partnerships with APC/Schneider Electric, Mitsubishi Electric (UPS), Enersys, PDI Power Systems, Schneider Electric (Square D, BMS), Starline Busway, Pelco, Juno Lighting, and UPG Battery, and includes PDUs, UPS systems, automatic transfer switches, switchgear, busway distribution, step-down transformers, standby generators, perimeter and row-based cooling, fire suppression, and IT/security monitoring. Complementing hardware resale, UNS sells professional services including data center design and engineering, high-density and hot-aisle/cold-aisle specialization, installation and certification, ongoing maintenance contracts, IT asset de-installation and recycling, and a three-tier Critical Facility Energy Profiles (CFEP) assessment framework — Basic, Premiere, and Elite — that adds progressively deeper diagnostics (uptime risk assessments, thermal imaging, CFD analysis) and module-based add-ons for virtualization, storage, and server consolidation.

UNS monetizes through a mix of hardware resale (partner-sourced equipment) and professional services, with a free CFEP data center assessment used as a lead-generation funnel. Its stated value proposition to customers is lower total cost of ownership, faster deployment, and 20–60% utility-bill savings through right-sized NCPI design. The firm is privately held with no disclosed institutional capital, runs on a 1–10 person team, and reports no public revenue or headcount growth signals.
