Render Networks has announced that InfoWest has selected its geospatial network construction technology to streamline and accelerate its fibre deployment and operations across Utah. Render’s end-to-end automation and real-time performance insights will unlock new delivery efficiencies for InfoWest across increasing fibre construction, customer connection, and maintenance activity.

InfoWest, a Boston Omaha Corporation business, is a provider in Utah’s internet service industry for 30 years. InfoWest offers both wireless and fibre-based broadband services to residents and businesses throughout Utah and select areas of Nevada, Arizona, and Colorado. InfoWest is expanding its fibre network footprint and incorporating an automated solution to streamline construction and maintenance activities and connect customers.

Through a highly-competitive evaluation, InfoWest chose Render’s solution to support a growing field workforce and realise project efficiencies enabled by Render’s automated scope creation and work management. Render’s integration with the VETRO fibre management solution will improve the quality and operability of network data from customer connection drops to ongoing maintenance activities.

“InfoWest specialises in connecting customers in remote locations where traditional providers could not provide reliable and affordable internet services. As we continue to grow, InfoWest needs a partner that can streamline the fibre network construction lifecycle from end to end, and that is Render,” says Randy Cosby, founder, COO, and executive VP at InfoWest. “Render provides visibility and forecasting of key milestones and contractor and supply chain performance. Render gives us the necessary insight to increase our ability to bring broadband internet to more of Utah and beyond.”

“Render streamlines customer connections and radically improves speed-to-market for broadband providers, like InfoWest, looking to gain a competitive advantage. We’re able to provide consistently accurate data, real-time performance insights, and the flexibility to respond to change and opportunity,” says Sam Pratt, CEO at Render Networks. “World-class connectivity is a fundamental need in the communities InfoWest is serving. We are delighted to play a role in accelerating construction and enabling their teams to more efficiently maintain infrastructure for decades to come.”
