Telecommunications

Communications and automation upgrades improve your operations and boost reliability for your customers. But managing the planning, design, implementation, integration, in-servicing and maintenance of your telecommunications technology is a tall order.

Operations & Maintenance for Telecommunications

After your project is constructed and commissioned, you want to be sure your system runs smoothly out of the gate. We can help you plan staffing requirements and provide technical training on the system, customized to your unique network. Furthermore, we can assist with initial break-fix and troubleshooting situations and provide network monitoring and on-call technical support for your system, even if just for an early temporary period. Long-term, we can provide a second set of eyes and an additional support level if your operations staff requires augmentation and/or additional experience.
