Today at Fiber Connect 2024, Render Networks announced the expansion of its mobile application suite and device choice, further enhancing its position as the industry leader in construction management and enabling network and construction teams to build at least 15% faster.

This latest release advances Render’s mobile-first approach and empowers field crews to document and close out build, connection, or maintenance work with their preferred smartphone or tablet device. This flexibility of device choice increases adoption, while improved scope and task clarity, and the ability to capture data and network changes in real-time enable field crews to increase their daily production by more than 20%.

Render Networks CEO Sam Pratt stated, “Rising costs of construction, increases in demand for broadband services, and a forecasted constraint of skilled labor create a challenging environment for network operators and builders. Our customers have proven that crew productivity can be improved with purpose-built technology, and the cumulative cost of this labor represents the majority of a project’s CAPEX investment. This latest mobile capability from Render enables teams to do more with their device of choice, so no matter what platform they’re accustomed to, all teams can adopt seamlessly and focus on getting more work done every day.”

NTIA’s $42.45 billion Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) funding will enable the industry to connect more communities to reliable broadband than ever before. However, the shortage of skilled technicians remains a significant challenge. While the industry works to accelerate recruitment and training, Render’s workforce mobility enhancements will enable projects to accomplish more with the same or fewer resources, increase production rates, ensure accurate digital as-builts, and ultimately connect these communities faster.

Render’s expanded mobile application features include:

Fully flexible BYOD scenario, supporting Apple and Android mobile phone and tablet devices
Intuitive, simple user interface
Enables field workers to manage their daily workload, make redlining changes, edit/create tasks, and show progress
Ensures accuracy of as-built work with industry-leading digital redline capability

Render is showcasing its construction management platform and new applications at Fiber Connect 2024, exhibition booth #306 from July 28-31, 2024
