Technical
Setup
A solution that allows you to create, configure, and share virtual environments and technical scenarios with ease.
The context
Reduce the time needed, the number of errors, and the amount of iteration when configuring complex environments. A major data centre operator needs to quickly configure complex technical layouts and adapt them to specific customer requests.
The traditional process – relying on site visits, email exchanges, static files, and manual reviews – slows down project submissions, increases the risk of errors, and necessitates numerous iterations before final approval.
Our goal: to make the configuration of technical environments a quick, visual, and collaborative process.
The solution
Technical Configurator is the solution, introduced by Techstar via the Techstar Core platform, that lets you create, configure, and share virtual environments and technical scenarios with incredible ease.
With an intuitive drag-and-drop interface and copy-and-paste functionality, teams can build detailed configurations in minutes, with no need for 3D skills. The solution lets you configure customised technical environments within a realistic virtual space and show alternatives, options, and alternative layouts in real time during sessions with the client. The scenario can be shared via a simple link, allowing customers to remotely access the virtual space and interact immersively with sensitive elements, routes, fittings, and critical infrastructure. This shortens the approval process, as technical choices become immediately clear.

Tangible benefits across the entire daisy-chain. Thanks to Technical Configurator, the company has achieved measurable results across the entire journey, from design to final customer validation. In terms of the operational objective, lead times have been drastically reduced, allowing complete projects to be presented during the very first call. Meanwhile, the optimised use of time and resources has eliminated many of the repetitive interactions typical of the traditional process.
Decision-making has improved thanks to clearer, more immersive technical scenarios that are also understandable for non-technical users. Supported by more effective KPI planning, made possible by the traceability of design choices and the variants compared. Sustainability also benefits: the solution contributes to the company’s ESG goals with fewer physical trips, less waste, and the ability to validate configurations virtually.
A complex technical project, presented, discussed, and approved in a single call, instead of weeks of site visits and emails.
