PROGRAM OVERVIEW
An unprecedented allocation of capital is being dumped into fiber network deployments. Large capital expenditures are causing demand for fiber design and permitting services to explode and putting pressure on finding and retaining qualified people. Many engineering companies engaged in fiber design projects in North America are asking themselves the question... How do we meet our deadlines without sacrificing quality or margins? This webinar answers the question by providing insight into how engineering companies can gain access to trained and knowledgeable resources to meet deadlines, beat margin targets, and deliver uncompromised quality. Attendees will learn about innovative ways to apply People, Process & Technology to leveraging North American and offshore resources for underground and aerial fiber design and permitting projects. Some of the workflows and technologies to be discussed are…
