M4 software will help BayRing Communications manage operations and infrastructure visually.

 

March 5, 2014 – RICHMOND, VA – Mapcom Systems, a leading provider of visual operations management software, announced today that BayRing Communications, a telecommunications service provider based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, has selected M4 Solutions as the operations solution to help manage their fiber network for the communities they serve in Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts.

The M4 Solutions software includes comprehensive design and mapping tools, integrated work order, fiber and central office management and various support applications, such as workforce management, services management and CPR integration. The M4 software is designed to map the entire telecom plant facility from the central office to the customer structure. The software then ties each map item back to an individual database record, which is then integrated with the telephone company’s existing customer assignment and billing records.

“BayRing Communications chose M4 Solutions for our planned GIS project based upon previous direct experience I had with Mapcom Systems’ software and support; as well as positive feedback from current Mapcom clients and users within organizations we work with on a regular basis. Mapcom Systems is a good fit for BayRing Communications because we can scale the implementation by purchasing seats and modules as we build our GIS database. Mapcom Systems is also a good fit based upon the level of support and training that are provided to a company just getting started with GIS,” said Steve Bond, Director of Network Operations for BayRing Communications.

“We initially purchased just the Fiber Application and a few seats, but expect to be able to add additional modules and integrations as well as expand visibility within the GIS to our sales staff using read-only licensing,” added Bond.

BayRing Communications joins over 170 communications service providers who have selected M4 Solutions.
