Every year, Black Friday puts enormous pressure on IT systems. Behind the sales and flashing banners, data centres and server rooms are working flat out to keep websites live, payments processed, and customer data secure. When demand spikes, there’s no margin for downtime.

We help businesses make sure their critical infrastructure is ready long before the rush begins.

Power That Doesn’t Flinch

A reliable UPS power supply is your first line of defence. It bridges the gap between mains power and your generators, keeping your systems online even during short interruptions. Our engineers carry out full load testing and maintenance checks, so you can be confident your UPS will perform when traffic peaks.

Cooling That Keeps Up

Extra demand means more heat. Without efficient server room cooling, temperatures can climb fast, risking performance drops or sudden shutdowns. We inspect and optimise your cooling systems, ensuring your air conditioning, sensors, and alarms are working as they should.

Cabling That Delivers Under Pressure

Loose connections or overloaded circuits can create unseen weak points. Our team checks your structured cabling and power distribution, identifying potential faults before they cause downtime.

When retail systems are under strain, we’re the people you want in your corner. From data centre support to site-wide maintenance, Barbour Consulting provides the engineering expertise that keeps your operations stable, regardless of how busy they become.

If your business depends on staying online through peak trading, now’s the time to check your infrastructure.

Contact Barbour Consulting today to schedule your pre-Black Friday power and cooling inspection.
