Network Build - Underground & Overhead
Our team of expert Project Managers, Project Co-ordinators, Civils and Cable Engineers work collaboratively with Clients, Local Authorities and supply chain to deliver Fibre-To-The-Home (FTTH), using their expertise from early engagement to closing out of completed build to ensure a smooth delivery.
We are set up to ensure that the correct skilled and trained engineers are deployed where required by using a selection of direct employees and contract partners.
Our civil engineers can deliver Network Build via traditional, PIA and narrow trenching methods. While the multi-disciplined cable engineers will ensure that the fibre blowing and splicing activities are completed to the highest of standards whether underground or overhead.
