Network Optimization

Your network provides the cornerstone for your company’s ability to communicate and deliver information, both internally and externally. Accurate design and deployment of that network is paramount to your company’s successful operational performance.

Your network also provides the cornerstone element of a best-practice telecom cost management program, by defining needed services at their most efficient levels. Your choice of technologies, equipment and vendors will lay the groundwork for lowest total operating cost.

McMartin Engineering brings a rich portfolio of technical success to the table when working to improve your telecom network infrastructure. We have the knowledge and experience to assess your telecom strategies and related risks, and to target solutions that match your unique needs. Because our overall company focus is telecom cost management, we are keenly aware of providing services and recommendations that save you money while improving performance.

  • Reduce capital expenditure
  • Increase service uptime
  • Reduce operations expenses

As with all our services, McMartin Engineering is 100% independent of carriers and hardware/software vendors so we provide an unbiased viewpoint on design, equipment and vendor selection.

We’re thorough and efficient, so we can quickly evaluate your telecom environment and determine the appropriate network service options for your unique situation. All of our technical services are provided on a consulting engagement basis.

Infrastructure Review

It’s critical that your network is designed and managed to handle your needs, both short-term and long-term. This includes aligning the network with your business requirements, protecting yourself from painful network disruptions and assessing whether your vendors are capable of delivering the services you need.

Network Documentation

The primary cause of network performance issues is most often associated with configuration, technology selection, fail-over capabilities, etc. To boost network reliability and performance, a thorough and concise inventory and mapping of the network is critical.

Project Support Services

Companies can find themselves in need of very specific telecom project support. This can be in the area of problem resolution, or simply tackling a one-off design project.

It is often said that planning is half the battle. When running telecom networks, it could be more than half. With our Infrastructure Review you can improve performance, reduce risk, lower your costs, and take control of your telecom landscape by increasing the information you have to make your best decisions. The result is an optimized environment that can handle the demands of your business now and into the future.

McMartin Engineering will help you assess your unique business situation so you can make sound decisions about how your network will best serve the needs of your enterprise.

Without proper documentation of your telecom environment, your company is at risk. Personnel transitions can leave your business without the primary information it needs to maintain network stability and performance. In the event of mergers or technology shifts, it becomes much more difficult to make choices about next steps.

Accurate network documentation doesn’t just happen, it must be made a priority and worked into your telecom management program. Individual diagrams stashed in a file drawer, or even a spreadsheet stored on somebody’s PC won’t help the service technician on an emergency call.

Your telecom operations team needs up to date information to efficiently run the network. Equally, your planning staff needs to know exactly what has been installed, and what is in the process of being installed. The implementation team needs to know exactly where they will pick up the existing network to connect the new network extension.
