To whom it may concern:

This document reflects 30 years industry experience that started in craft up to present

RCDD achievement. I believe I have a solid reputation in the telecomm community and

consider myself well connected with regards to vendors, manufacturers and service

providers. I also believe my background meets the road in terms of experience and

longevity in both ISP and OSP design and build disciplines.

My OSP design work has entailed aerial/burial and or combination of both to include

optical fiber and high pair-count copper installations. I’ve acted as a BIC (Building

Industry Consultant) many times for commercial clients to ensure proper sizing and

placement of buried duct banks and I’ve initiated negotiations with local utilities for joint

pole use in aerial applications (EXP. Duke Energy).

Some of the key aspects of my experience in ISP/OSP design/build include but are not

limited to:

  · Provide flexible, scalable, future-ready transport systems design and estimated

cost of materials (BOM) and cost of project implementation (labor).

  · Interacts with Sales/end users/architects/general contractors/manufacturers and

vendors through the conceptual/design stage.

  · Seeks to add value to end users/building owners to leverage their infrastructure

assets and maximize their return on investment (ROI) while providing best

practices with maximum project margin. Interacts with project management

services for a proper design implementation, in order to provide support during

the infrastructure installation.

  · Develop the cost information to make budgetary and feasibility determinations.

  · Compile and analyze data on all of the factors that can influence costs—such as

materials, labor, and location.

I believe my skill sets and knowledge of the ISP/OSP discipline meet your requirements.
