Singapore's Brightray Targets One-Year Build for Planned 10 MW AI Data Center in Indiana

Brightray Veridian Pte. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Singapore-headquartered Brightray Science Inc., signed a letter of intent on October 6, 2026 with a U.S.-based mission critical infrastructure partner covering a planned 10 MW AI data center in Indiana. Brightray Science Inc., a majority-owned subsidiary of BUUU Group Limited (Nasdaq: BUUU), announced the agreement on October 14, 2026.

The company states this is its first project letter of intent signed in the United States, a step it describes as central to its push into the world's largest data center market.

Factory Prefabrication Runs Parallel With Site Works

At the heart of the Indiana plan is Brightray's prefabricated delivery model. Rather than building on site from the ground up, the company intends to complete the pre-installation and integration of data hall modules and their related functional systems at the manufacturing stage. On-site work would then focus on module placement, interface connections and integrated commissioning.

Factory prefabrication is planned to run in parallel with on-site foundation and ancillary works, an approach Brightray believes can compress the overall project delivery period to within one year.

That one-year target is broader than it may first appear. According to the announcement, it covers the full U.S. project schedule, including design finalization, permitting, international shipping, on-site foundation and ancillary works, installation and commissioning, and not merely the delivery of the prefabricated modules themselves.

The single-storey layout will be designed around the equipment configuration, operation and maintenance access and site conditions, providing space and facility support for high-density AI equipment deployment.

The company also acknowledges that the promise comes with caveats. The starting point of the delivery period and the implementation schedule will only be specified in the subsequent definitive contract.

Final design, technical specifications and delivery arrangements remain subject to the parties' final agreement, site and power conditions, required approvals and equipment supply.

Technical Blueprint: NVIDIA GB300, Tier III and PUE Below 1.2

The planned facility is intended to be compatible with the NVIDIA GB300 computing platform. Power distribution, cooling and data hall layout are all planned around the requirements of high-density AI equipment deployment.

The project is expected to be designed on the basis of Tier III standards, with a target design annual power usage effectiveness, or PUE, of below 1.2. Brightray frames this combination as an effort to balance high-density computing capacity, operational reliability and energy efficiency.

What the Letter of Intent Actually Commits

Despite the scale of the plan, the letter of intent itself stops short of binding commitments. Under the LOI, the Partner intends to engage Brightray to deploy a 10MW prefabricated data center solution, with Brightray acting as the supplier for the prefabricated data center scope agreed by the parties. That scope would include design, manufacturing, integration, delivery and other agreed services. The company states plainly that the principal cooperation arrangements under the LOI are not legally binding and do not create any obligation on either party to purchase, supply or make payment.

The Partner intends to issue a purchase order to Brightray by November 15, 2026, and the LOI will expire 12 months after signing unless it is replaced earlier by a definitive agreement. Implementation remains contingent on the parties reaching final agreement on technical specifications, commercial terms, the project schedule and definitive contract documentation.

Brightray cautions that there can be no assurance that a definitive contract will be signed, that the purchase order will be issued, or that the project will proceed as planned.

The announcement also leaves the identity of the U.S.-based partner undisclosed, meaning the only named counterparties in the transaction so far are Brightray Veridian Pte. Ltd. and its parent companies.

Why the United States, and Why Now

Brightray's move into Indiana is underpinned by a market picture drawn from industry research cited in the company's announcement. According to JLL's 2026 Global Data Center Outlook, the Americas account for approximately 50% of global data center capacity, with the United States alone representing approximately 90% of capacity within the Americas. The company characterizes the United States as both the world's largest data center market and a major center of global AI infrastructure investment and construction, and argues that this scale makes it an important market for its international expansion, with broad scope for construction solutions that accelerate computing infrastructure delivery.

Demand, however, collides with delivery constraints. CBRE's U.S. Real Estate Market Outlook 2026, also cited by Brightray, notes that power supply and infrastructure conditions continue to affect data center construction schedules, and that traditional 12-to-18-month timelines for sub-50-MW buildings no longer apply.

In the company's view, speed of delivery has become an important consideration for customers choosing construction solutions, which is the logic behind its prefabrication strategy of running factory work in parallel with on-site works.

Scope Beyond the 10MW Project

For Brightray, the Indiana LOI is positioned as more than a single 10 MW opportunity. The company frames it as a vehicle for bringing its prefabricated delivery model into the world's largest data center market and for building local project execution and partnership experience. If the technical solution, commercial arrangements, and definitive contract are finalized, the project is expected to serve as a reference point for Brightray's future business expansion in the United States. The open questions remain substantial.

The partner's identity is unknown, the anticipated purchase order by November 15, 2026 is not assured, and any definitive contract would need to be reached within the LOI's 12-month validity window. Until then, the one-year delivery promise, the final technical specifications and the commercial terms all remain to be fixed in binding documentation.
