CASE STUDY 2
Equipment Installations (Wireless)
Background
One recent project that Celerity completed involved the turn up of SONET equipment at approximately
125 cellular sites. Celerity was selected for this project for our ability to match manpower and
equipment to the expedited work schedule. While Celerity did not have the least expensive solution,
Celerity exhibited the unique ability to receive and catalog components, store and pre-configure the
components, and ultimately install the components on site. Each phase of the project required detail
oriented documentation so that the rapid build-out could be easily managed and maintained following
the conclusion of the project.
The Challenge
This project also required the ability to quickly adapt to
massive swells and lulls in the amount of sites that were
available for installation at any one time. Through the
course of the project, several hurdles needed to be
overcome. The initial timing of the project had the
installation beginning in early spring. The project
kick off date was delayed until the end of the year,
creating obstacles to be overcome not only in weather,
but the general implications that year end holidays have
on business, such as travel issues, shipping schedules
and increased vacation time.
