You get a proven partner for your most critical environments. We build, upgrade, and optimize data centres, headends, and central offices with MOP-driven precision.
We handle space and power surveys, rack and pathway installs, transport platform commissioning, and complex maintenance-window cutovers to minimize risk and eliminate downtime.

In a data centre, headend, or central office (CO), there is no room for error. A single mistake during an upgrade or cutover can disrupt service for thousands of users. This high-stakes work demands more than just technical skill; it requires meticulous planning, strict change control, and a team that can execute flawlessly within a maintenance window.
Our team is built for these environments. We have supported major ISPs and enterprise clients in their core facilities, handling everything from new builds to live network migrations.
Your project starts with a clear plan. We conduct detailed surveys to map out your existing space, power, and cooling, providing the data needed for a successful expansion or optimization.
Your equipment gets a clean, organized foundation. We install racks, cabinets, cable trays, and fibre raceways, ensuring a logical layout with proper cable management.
We handle your critical power needs, including the installation, upgrades, and removal of Battery/BDFB (Battery Distribution Fuse Bay) systems and DC power plants.
We install and commission the core of your network, including DWDM, CWDM, and SONET transport platforms.
We can help you reclaim space in a live environment. We manage the systematic decommissioning and removal of old equipment and can optimize your rack space.
This is a core part of our service. We plan and execute your network upgrades and migrations with a “no-surprise” process, performing the work during scheduled maintenance windows to avoid any service interruption.
We develop a detailed Method of Procedure (MOP) and Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that outlines every step, test, and rollback plan.
We align with your internal change-control authorization process to ensure all work is approved and documented.
We execute the plan, whether it involves turning up new optical nodes, performing platform upgrades (like CCAP, SDV, or On-Demand), or segmenting service areas.
We perform final testing, provisioning, and acceptance tests to confirm the new system is 100% operational before the maintenance window closes.
It includes the physical build-out (racks, cabinets, trays, fibre raceways) and the power installation (BDFB, battery systems). It also includes installing and commissioning your network equipment, such as transport platforms.
A Method of Procedure (MOP) plans every single step, including what to do if something goes wrong (a rollback plan). The change-control process ensures that this plan is reviewed and approved by all stakeholders, so there are no surprises during the maintenance window.
Yes. We have deep experience installing, commissioning, and turning up optical transport platforms, including DWDM, CWDM, and legacy SONET equipment.
What documentation is provided at handover? You receive a complete package, including as-built drawings, labelled pathways, test packs (like OTDR traces), and a final report confirming that all acceptance criteria were met.
Your project follows our four-step process, designed for zero-downtime execution in live environments.
1. Planning and MOP Development
We begin with a deep dive into your project, conducting site surveys and working with your team to build a detailed MOP. This plan includes the scope, timeline, risk assessment, and a step-by-step rollback plan.
2. Staging and Change Control
We pre-stage all equipment and submit the MOP and all required documentation to your change-control board for full authorization.
3. Maintenance Window Execution
Our team arrives on-site and executes the MOP under your supervision. All work is performed methodically within the scheduled maintenance window.
4. Acceptance Testing and Handover
After the work is complete, we perform the agreed-upon acceptance tests to prove success. You receive all test reports and as-built documentation.
This work requires a high degree of trust. Let’s discuss your next project, and we can show you a sample MOP and cutover plan.
