From a datacenter PM, this is unheard of.

It takes perfect coordination from so many teams, it's hard to put into perspective, but I'll give a high level.

General categories of teams engaged in this effort.

upper management from each discipline to approve each facet
accounting
finance
contracting
legal
regulatory compliance
security
risk management
cabling (fiber optics, dark fiber, Infiniband)
network gear (switches/routers)
network planning
capacity management
infrastructure - site prep
infrastructure - permitting
infrastructure - power
infrastructure - backup power (generators, kinetic reserves, battery reserves)
infrastructure - earthquake mitigation
infrastructure- fire safety compliance
infrastructure - floor load review
infrastructure - security hardware (cameras, armored fiber, door locks, biometrics, etc)
infrastructure - on site office space
infrastructure - floor layout
infrastructure - cooling
logistics - vendor review/approval
logistics - schedule of deliveries
logistics - communication plan
logistics - storage site prep
logistics - inventory during install
logistics - install plan
logistics - customs
logistics - heavy equipment (lift HVAC components)
personnel - rack/stack/cable/label crew
personnel - on-site electrical engineering team(s)
personnel - site operations
personnel - PM cadre
personnel- on-site networking support
personnel- on-site hardware support (NVidia)
personnel - warehouse workers
personnel- HVAC
personnel- janitorial
personnel - food vendors
personnel- security officers
personnel- site supervisor(s)
marketing - customer engagement
marketing - advertisement and corporate branding
support - Tier 1
support - NOC
support - portal
support - security

Now, keep in mind that some of these team names represent entire departments, so this list does not cover every stakeholder group.

Also, keep in mind that we haven't even talked about anybody necessary for the actual programming of the software.

All this is just to stand up a new DC.

Ive been doing this for 20 years at Fortune 100 companies, and I have NEVER heard of such a feat. This speaks not only to the skill of all people in each and every department, but to an organizational structure that allows for such rapid work.

To say this is impressive doesnt begin to tell the tale. This is monumental. Shocking.

I'd love to see the finished product.

I posted this to get feedback from those in the know like you. It sounded impressive to me, but you just laid it all out. Boom.

Now, if Elon can just get it down from 19 days to 17, it would be absolute perfection.

i still think Elon is actual military. not just a contractor.

that could explain the ability to organize such a project

When je says that making a car is an order of magnitude easier than making the processes to mass produce that same car, he isn't joking.

I cannot wait to see what he does to our federal government.

Cut the Fed Govt by 80000% :D

All kidding aside, 80% cut sounds like a good place to START.

He is Tony Stark.

I wonder who is the storage vendor? Asking as a former storage vendor employee. Also, is that industry still viable?
