The Design Lab
Expertly designed networks, in record time.
Our Design Lab runs the most advanced fibre design tools and survey equipment available. That lets us turn a raw area into construction-ready designs faster, with fewer surprises in the field.

What comes out of the lab.
GIS-based planning
Every premise, pole and duct mapped, so routes are optimised before crews mobilise.
Field survey capture
Surveyors on the ground feed data straight into design, cutting rework.
High- & low-level design
POP to premise: feeder, distribution, splitters and drops, to each operator’s architecture.
BOQs & costing
Accurate bills of quantities and budgets that hold up in the field.
Wayleave packs
Submission-ready drawings that speed up municipal and utility approvals.
As-builts & records
Clean as-built data and handover records that operators can maintain the network from.
From survey to “issued for construction”.
Step 1
Survey
Capture premises, routes and existing infrastructure.
Step 2
Design
HLD, then LLD, to the operator’s rules.
Step 3
Review
Joint review with the operator; changes closed out quickly.
Step 4
Issue & build
Build packs to site, where our own crews take over.
