IT3 READY
A basic infrastructure that the tenant can build on further. Additional investment is desirable for professional use.
The foundation is there, the fit-out is up to you
IT3 READY stands for 45 to 59 points. The building is prepared: there is cabling, there is connectivity and there are digital provisions. But the environment is not designed for intensive professional use.
READY is therefore exactly what the name says: ready to be fitted out, not ready to be put under heavy load immediately. For organisations that want to make their own IT choices anyway, that's not a drawback but a starting point.

Characteristics of IT3 READY
Basic cabling
Cabling is present, but not everywhere at the level that demanding applications require.
More information →Limited WiFi
WiFi is present, with coverage or capacity that may fall short at busy times.
More information →Limited digital provisions
There are no integrated building systems; individual provisions may be present.
More information →Room to grow
The building is suitable for being upgraded to a higher level. After an upgrade, recertification can take place.
More information →What does this mean in practice?
You should expect to invest yourself in the final layer: better WiFi, additional cabling or your own network equipment. The IT-Label makes it visible in advance that this investment is needed, so you can factor it into the rental price and your planning.
That's the core of the label: not judging, but making transparent what you get. Who does what is recorded in the IT Demarcation List. See what to look out for as a tenant.
What does this mean for the user?
Delivery level: basic provisions in place. Additional IT fit-out is required. Who does what can differ per building and lease agreement and is recorded in the IT Demarcation List. Read more about responsibilities.
Considering an upgrade?
A certified partner assesses which steps are needed to move to IT2 or higher.

The IT-Label classifications
The IT-Label has six classifications. Each level describes a different digital delivery level and what that means for the user.
IT2 PLUG & PLAY: IT delivery level
IT2 PLUG & PLAY offers a fibre optic connection, CAT6 cabling and functional WiFi. Suitable for most organisations, with room to optimise further.
IT4 CORE: IT delivery level
With IT4 CORE, only the primary connection provisions are present. There is no internal IT infrastructure; fit-out is fully up to the tenant.
Certified partners
The IT-Label is determined by independent partners who work to one methodology, so the outcome is comparable between buildings.
