Esri Backhaul Optimization: FTTC Game Changer
Track: Telecommunications
Authors: Kevin Coles, Jonathan Mori

The Pre-Sales Quoting & Enterprise GIS team at Lumos Networks is responsible for providing sales with OSP/Equipment cost for new Fiber builds. A big part of this is Fiber to the Cell (FTTC) opportunities. It’s common to receive bulk requests that can have up to 400 cell site locations and a short deadline. This would normally take weeks for the team to provide OSP costs and maps back to sales. With the Esri Backhaul Optimization model, this now takes days.
