Who we work with.

ADC is engaged by every counterparty in the data center value chain — and our advisory posture adapts to the role of the principal we represent.

For landowners

Landowners

Turn raw acreage into institutional-grade digital infrastructure.

Most land that gets pitched as a 'data center site' isn't actually one. ADC helps landowners understand what their property is worth in the current market, what work it requires to be deployable, and how to structure transactions with credible developers and operators — without leaving value on the table.

  • Honest evaluation of land, power, and entitlement posture
  • Optionality framing — ground lease, BTS, joint venture, outright sale
  • Confidential introductions through institutional channels
  • Long-horizon site readiness planning

For investors & funds

Investors & Funds

An advisory bench for digital infrastructure investment theses.

Institutional investors entering the data center space face a market where power conviction, queue position, and operator alignment matter as much as real estate fundamentals. ADC supports thesis development, site sourcing, diligence, and structuring across the platform and asset levels.

  • Thesis development and regional opportunity mapping
  • Site sourcing aligned to underwriting criteria
  • Pre-acquisition feasibility and risk diligence
  • JV, BTS, and operator partner structuring inputs

For developers

Developers

Senior bench capacity when project complexity outruns headcount.

Active data center developers regularly engage ADC as embedded advisory capacity — managing parallel feasibility programs, owner representation, utility coordination, or hyperscale RFP responses without expanding fixed overhead.

  • Embedded owner representation and program oversight
  • Parallel feasibility across multiple candidate sites
  • Utility, entitlement, and stakeholder coordination
  • RFP and term sheet response support

For municipalities & edos

Municipalities & EDOs

Independent counsel for jurisdictions evaluating data center investment.

Cities, counties, utilities, and economic development organizations are increasingly fielding multi-hundred-megawatt load requests. ADC provides independent advisory support to evaluate proposals, structure community benefit, design site readiness programs, and avoid avoidable concessions.

  • Site readiness and inventory program design
  • Investment proposal evaluation frameworks
  • Community benefit and PILOT advisory inputs
  • Long-term grid, water, and infrastructure planning context

For operators & colos

Operators & Colos

Outside advisory capacity for new market expansion.

Operators and colocation providers expanding into new geographies often need on-the-ground advisory bench depth before committing internal site selection, entitlement, or development resources. ADC provides discreet, market-aware support.

  • New-market site sourcing and qualification
  • Local utility and entitlement intelligence
  • Off-market opportunity surfacing
  • Owner-side support on selected expansion projects

For hyperscalers

Hyperscalers

Pre-RFP site qualification and confidential development support.

ADC supports hyperscale infrastructure teams indirectly — through the developer, landowner, and municipal counterparties bringing them sites — and directly, on confidential pre-RFP site qualification and engagement support.

  • Hyperscale-grade pre-RFP site dossiers
  • Confidential land and power assemblage support
  • Coordinated landowner and municipal engagement
  • Owner-side coordination on selected build-to-suit projects
