Prefab construction firm Northstar Technologies Group and Quantum this week announced Northstar has taken majority ownership of Quantum (also known as Compass Edgepoint Systems), which will operate as one of Northstar’s business units and will be split between Northstar Federal and Northstar Enterprise and Defense.

“Northstar is an exceptional company with modular design and construction woven into its DNA, making the Quantum solution a seamless fit within their portfolio,” said Tony Grayson, general manager of Compass Quantum. “They’re an ideal partner—not just because of Northstar’s deep market presence in every sector Quantum serves, but also due to their strong partnership with Owens Corning, whose innovative materials power our deployments. Northstar’s unmatched expertise in composite and modular construction brings tremendous value to our customers, and their scalable production capabilities ensure we can deliver Quantum units anywhere in the world, at any volume.”

“Quantum has been a key part of Compass’ vision to meet customer needs for Edge capacity from OpEx budgets,” said Chris Crosby, CEO of Compass Datacenters. “We will continue to work closely with Quantum to meet the needs of our customers, and, under the Northstar banner, Quantum will be better able to support defense, military, and federal government customers. Opening up those markets lays the foundation for Quantum’s next phase of growth.”
