Quote from the position paper:
The Industrialization of the Datacenter—Components
As the name implies, the concept of the Industrialization of the Data Center hearkens back to the historical constructs of efficiencies derived through the division of component production into smaller, discrete units that maximize the efficiency of delivery of the finished product. The use of a partner allows the customer to focus their efforts on the skill sets that are most closely aligned with the success of their business (applications, for example) with clearly projected costs defined over an extended period of data center operations.

Quote from the position paper:
Reliable and efficient data center operation is a fundamental requirement for today’s businesses. The costs of missed implementation deadlines or operational interruptions can mount quickly. Therefore the selection of a data center provider can be a complex and nerve wracking task. The risks involved in this situation should be alleviated, not compounded, by your selected provider.
