If you do fiber installation for clients like CSU, Ting, or any municipal provider, you know the drill: when the job is done, you need to deliver an as-built document.
What Is an As-Built Document?
An as-built is a detailed record of what was actually installed — as opposed to what was planned. It's the final deliverable that tells the client: here's exactly what we put in the ground, where it goes, and how it connects.
What Goes Into an As-Built
- GPS coordinates — exact locations of handholes, splice points, and termination points
- Cable type — manufacturer, fiber count, cable specification
- Strand count — which strands are used, which are spare
- Splice records — which fibers were spliced where, with loss measurements
- OTDR test results — optical time domain reflectometer readings
- Photos — before, during, and after
- Route description — the physical path of the cable run
The HogWired Way
HogWired helps you assemble as-built packages, ready to print or save as PDF, from the data your crews enter during the job. When the job is done, the route details, photos, fiber docs, and GPS coordinates are already in one place — ready to export into a professional, client-ready document.
That's the HogWired difference: the documentation happens while the work happens, not after.
