A good first impression does not replace technical and contractual review. Obtain written answers and separate operating facts from design targets—especially when an operator presents both a live site and a project under construction.
Infrastructure questions
What is the power source and supply category? What capacity is available now? How are transformation, cooling and connectivity arranged? Which ASIC models are accepted and what firmware, noise or heat-load limits apply?
Operating questions
Who is on site 24/7? Which actions are included in the rate? How are incidents and maintenance reported? How is equipment tracked? Is there an on-site or partner workshop, and who approves repairs?
Contract questions
How are tariff and consumption determined? How is uptime calculated? Which events are excluded? Who is responsible for logistics, storage and damage? What are the access, termination and removal procedures?
Final verification
Reconcile the presentation, technical answers and contract. If an important condition exists only in correspondence or conversation, include it in an appendix or SLA. Large deployments should include a site visit and an agreed pilot batch.
