Back to All Partners Vertiv INVITE Networks is a Vertiv partner, delivering critical infrastructure design, deployment, and management for enterprise and mid-market organizations in Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and the greater Mountain West. INVITE handles power, thermal, and data center management solutions from Vertiv — so your infrastructure teams stay focused on operations, not vendor complexity. TL;DR: INVITE Networks designs and manages Vertiv critical infrastructure — UPS systems, power distribution, thermal management, and edge deployments — for organizations in Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and the greater Mountain West. INVITE acts as the single point of accountability across your Vertiv environment, from initial sizing through ongoing management. This page is for IT directors and facilities managers evaluating a Vertiv partner who can own the full deployment lifecycle. What does INVITE Networks deliver as a Vertiv partner? Vertiv is the global leader in critical digital infrastructure — designing and manufacturing power, thermal management, and IT management systems that keep data centers and edge environments online. As a Vertiv partner, INVITE Networks brings that hardware and software stack into enterprise environments across Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and the greater Mountain West with full-service delivery: site assessment, load calculations, Vertiv system design, installation coordination, and post-deployment management. INVITE works across the Vertiv product portfolio including UPS systems, power distribution units (PDUs), thermal management equipment, and the Vertiv™ Avocent® KVM and DCIM platforms. Whether you are refreshing aging power infrastructure in a primary data center or deploying Vertiv edge solutions in a branch office, INVITE provides the engineering depth to do it right — not just the product. Why do Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and Mountain West organizations choose INVITE for Vertiv critical infrastructure? Critical infrastructure failures are expensive. A misconfigured UPS or undersized PDU can take down operations for hours — and most organizations do not have the in-house expertise to spec, install, and validate Vertiv systems with the accuracy those environments require. INVITE brings both the Vertiv product knowledge and data center engineering experience to eliminate that risk. A typical Vertiv engagement replaces aging legacy power infrastructure with a Liebert UPS platform paired with Geist PDUs and the Environet DCIM platform. The outcome INVITE designs for: full power chain visibility and automated alerting for thermal excursions, so infrastructure-related downtime stops being a recurring line item in incident reviews. How does INVITE manage Vertiv as part of its managed services? INVITE integrates Vertiv into its managed services framework through the Vertiv Environet platform and custom alerting runbooks. Once a Vertiv environment is deployed, INVITE’s NOC monitors power loads, UPS battery health, thermal thresholds, and environmental sensors on a 24/7 basis. Threshold breaches trigger automated escalation paths that route to INVITE engineers — not generic help desks. Vertiv hardware has a long lifecycle, but firmware updates, battery replacements, and load recalibrations are ongoing tasks that fall through the cracks without a dedicated partner. INVITE manages the full maintenance cycle: scheduled battery replacements, firmware coordination with Vertiv, annual load studies, and capacity planning tied to your IT roadmap. This is delivered as part of INVITE’s broader managed services practice — a single point of accountability across your infrastructure stack. What Vertiv products does INVITE deploy and manage? INVITE deploys and manages the full range of Vertiv critical infrastructure, including Vertiv Liebert UPS systems (GXT5, EXL S1, APM), Vertiv Geist power distribution units (monitored, metered, and switched PDUs), Vertiv Liebert thermal management systems (precision cooling, in-row cooling, economizers), Vertiv Avocent KVM switching and out-of-band management, Vertiv Environet and Trellis DCIM software, and Vertiv edge solutions for distributed and branch deployments. For organizations running hybrid environments, INVITE coordinates Vertiv deployments alongside network, server, and security refresh cycles — providing a unified delivery model that eliminates the vendor-coordination burden from your internal team.

Frequently Asked Questions: Vertiv Critical Infrastructure Is INVITE Networks an authorized Vertiv partner? Yes. INVITE Networks is an authorized Vertiv partner serving enterprise and mid-market organizations in Salt Lake City, UT and Phoenix, AZ. INVITE’s partnership includes access to Vertiv technical support, product pricing, and engineering resources through the Vertiv Channel Partner program. Can INVITE manage our Vertiv environment if we do not have dedicated facilities staff? Yes. INVITE is built for organizations that do not have dedicated data center or facilities teams. INVITE’s managed services include 24/7 NOC monitoring of Vertiv UPS, PDU, thermal, and environmental systems — with proactive alerting, firmware management, and scheduled maintenance handled entirely by INVITE engineers. How does INVITE differ from simply buying Vertiv through a distributor? Distributors fulfill product orders. INVITE designs, deploys, and manages Vertiv environments end-to-end — conducting load studies before sizing equipment, coordinating physical installation, integrating Vertiv into your monitoring platform, and owning ongoing maintenance. The difference is accountability: INVITE is responsible for the outcome, not just the sale. How long does a Vertiv data center infrastructure deployment typically take with INVITE? Timeline depends on scope, but a typical data center power and cooling refresh for a mid-market organization runs 6 to 12 weeks from initial assessment to commissioning. This includes site survey, load calculations, Vertiv equipment procurement, installation coordination, and post-deployment validation. INVITE provides a detailed project timeline during the scoping phase.
