Telecom engineering, end to end.
Six services that cover a project from the first walk of the route to the record set that closes it out, across Florida, Georgia and Illinois. Take one, or take the chain — the handovers are where most schedules go wrong, and keeping them in one place is the reason to.
01
Route and pole data collected on site: existing structures, attachments, obstructions and access. The measurements the design will depend on, captured before anyone draws anything.
02
Outside plant route design and construction drawings — aerial and underground — produced at high, mid or low level of detail depending on what the build requires.
03
Inside plant: equipment layouts, rack and frame elevations, fiber distribution, cable routing, power and grounding — for huts, cabinets, central offices and building equipment rooms.
04
Submittal packages prepared to each agency’s standard — village, town, city, county, state or independent — then lodged and tracked through review and comment.
05
Maintenance of traffic plans for work in and around the right of way, drawn for the authority that has to approve them and the crew that has to set them out.
06
Field redlines reconciled against the design and returned as a clean record of what was actually built, in the format your records team works in.
Delivery record
How much of this we actually do.
Most engineering websites ask you to take their experience on faith. This is the volume AB has actually carried since 2019 — every project logged, every year.

How engagements usually run
Most work arrives one of two ways: a single scope that needs turning around, or a programme where jobs keep coming and consistency matters more than any one drawing.
Both are logged the same way. A project number is issued on the day the request lands, with a category and a location attached, and it follows the work through every phase. When you ask where something stands, that record is the answer.
What we will and will not commit to
Field windows, drafting turnaround and submittal dates are within our control, and we will put dates against them.
Agency review times are not. Neither is a permit decision. You will be told plainly which parts of your schedule depend on someone else, before the schedule is agreed rather than after it slips.
Working across the chain
Where several services are used together, the survey feeds the design, the design feeds the permit package and the MOT, and the field redlines feed the as-builts. Nothing is re-collected and nothing is re-explained at a handover.
One project record from intake to closeout
One point of contact across every phase
Drawing standards matched to the reviewing agency
Deliverables in the format your records team already uses
What comes with the work, not as an extra
Two things are often sold separately in this industry. Here they are part of how a job runs.
Quality control — packages are checked against the reviewing agency’s standard before they are lodged, because a rejected submittal costs more than the review that would have caught it
Project management — every job carries a project number, a date received, a category and a location from day one. That is the same system the delivery record on this site is counted from
