Visit Marengo

Marengo is an AI-native engineering firm that provides pre-construction engineering for data center development, covering site due diligence, feasibility, concept design, and FEED/permitting design. It aims to shorten traditional pre-construction design cycles, which typically run 10-12 months, to 5-6 months by automating iterative engineering processes and surfacing constraints and risks earlier.

The firm uses in-house AI tools alongside licensed engineers to explore design alternatives, run multi-objective optimization, and produce integrated test fits and 3D engineering concepts covering power, cooling, utilities, access, civil, structural, and permitting constraints. Deliverables include site constraint registers, developable-area analyses, master plans, CAD layouts, electrical single-line diagrams, cooling concepts, 3D coordinated models, and decision-ready feasibility reports, progressing through to permit-design documentation and basis of design.

Marengo is intended for data center developers and portfolio owners, with an approach that starts with a single site and can extend across a portfolio into FEED and permitting design. Designs are reviewed and validated by licensed engineers, and client IP is not used to train models.
