Streamlined FTTH Design and Enhanced Profitability
Company:
EES Live, an Engineering Firm specializing in Fiber-To-The-Home (FTTH) design.
The Challenge:
Traditional FTTH design methods were error-prone and inefficient, leading to inaccurate client deliverables, costly rework, and limited scalability for EES Live.
The Solution:
EES Live implemented VETRO FiberMap, a software suite specifically designed for FTTH network design.
This proactive error detection ensures your network design is flawless, so you can proceed with installation confidently, knowing your network will perform as expected from day one.
“By validating connections and identifying inconsistencies in a network design, VETRO FiberMap catches errors before they become costly problems. For example, in a 9,000-point design, even a small 10% error rate could mean 900 points need fixing. Imagine discovering these errors during installation – the delays, the budget overruns! VETRO FiberMap pinpoints these issues upfront, saving time, money, and frustration.”
Benefits:
Enhanced Accuracy: VETRO FiberMap‘s features helped EES Live identify double the service locations compared to initial client data. This translated to more precise business cases and improved project profitability for EES Live’s clients.
Error Reduction and Cost Savings: Proactive error identification during the design phase prevented costly delays and rework that typically occurred during installation with traditional methods.
Streamlined Workflows: VETRO FiberMap automated complex tasks and calculations, allowing EES Live to:
- Free up senior engineers’ time for more strategic work.
- Enable less experienced team members to contribute effectively.
- Scale projects more efficiently with the potential for further time savings through improved automation features.
Improved Collaboration: Real-time design progress visibility through VETRO FiberMap fostered better collaboration with clients, allowing for early input and a more efficient design process.
“VETRO FiberMap streamlines complex network design and calculations, enabling us to scale projects faster and more efficiently. Its intuitive interface empowers less experienced team members to contribute meaningfully, expanding our workforce capacity. By automating tedious tasks and simplifying complex processes, VETRO FiberMap not only accelerates project timelines but also fosters a more inclusive and productive work environment.”
The Results:
VETRO FiberMap’s accuracy was instrumental in identifying double the potential service locations (9,000 vs. the estimated 4,500), directly impacting the project’s profitability.
Error-flagging capability prevented a potential 10% error rate in a 9,000-point design, which would have translated to 900 costly corrections during installation.
Real-time accuracy allowed the client to catch design discrepancies early on, such as an issue with the number of tubes being used.
By automating complex calculations and design aspects, VETRO FiberMap enables faster project scaling and empowers less experienced team members to contribute effectively. This resulted in time savings equivalent to designing an entire project compared to manual methods.
VETRO FiberMap addressed EES Live’s key challenges, providing a comprehensive solution for accurate, efficient, and collaborative FTTH network design. With VETRO FiberMap’s user-centric approach and focus on continuous improvement, EES Live is well-positioned to maintain a competitive edge in the evolving FTTH design landscape.
