FBA Presents – New Technologies to Speed Time to Market are Essential

Speed to turning up homes enables network operators to generate revenue more quickly, making public and private shareholders alike happy. With skilled labor at a premium, finding workforce efficiencies through labor-lite solutions is the path more operators are taking. Such craft-friendly solutions have been found to cut up to 50 percent off the time to turn up a household or business, enabling technicians to add one or two new installations per day – speed that turns homes passed into more homes generating revenue per month.
