Best questions to ask the riser management company
Can you provide a central point for building communications? The riser management team should centralize all of the security, reliability and accountability standards in your building.
Are you able to fully implement all of the standards and controls that are needed in my building? After your riser management team is done with its initial servicing, your building should meet all local and federal safety requirements.
Can your team secure my buildings’ telecom spaces from physical theft and other hazards? This can be difficult to find in a riser management team because many of them are focused on digital and virtual hazards. However, there are other forms of sabotage that can take place, and you need to be prepared for all of them.
Things to look for in a riser management service
Active management is essential in your riser management service team. In today's super-fast world of telecommunications, your tenants will be sending you requests at an incredibly fast rate. Active management is vital to creating maximum efficiency.
Although your tenants may not be familiar with the ways that a riser management team works, they will benefit from better all-around service when you have the right team in place. You shouldn't have as many complaints about your telecom structure when you have the right people working the service.
Look for a team that can give your tenants up to date service that is secured, monitored and has a single point of contact for all service requests. If you have all of these things in place, you are well on the way to having a riser management service that you can depend on.
Riser Management Installation
Installation and management are the services that we offer as part of a full-scale package for your data and phone cabling. Riser management originates from the MPOE, also known as the minimum point of entry. This is usually the place that your residence or company holds that originates most of the cable connections in the building. From the minimum point of entry, cables may be distributed to individual offices for all of your service needs. As long as this central nervous system of your cable network is functioning properly, you have much less chance of errors occurring.
Riser management was traditionally taken care of by the local phone company before the deregulation of the telecommunications industry. Deregulation helped to create competition among telecommunications companies, evening the playing field between smaller and larger entities. However, deregulation also encourages a lack of organization when it comes to riser management. Buildings that are unable to afford riser management individually may hire less talented network cabling companies, encouraging disorganization, downtime, fire hazards, and security risks.
If we take care of your riser management services and installation, you will have one point of contact for your network cabling. We will make sure that you have on-site technicians who are dedicated to your cause and learn your cabling network specifically. You will be able to request extension services for new features such as additional data and voice T-1 lines, POTs lines, and other additions and changes. You will have no trouble organizing the financials behind new changes.
Our riser management services include the ability to maintain an audit of your system that will evolve in real-time. We keep up with the ever-changing needs of your cabling network through an ongoing testing regimen with a focus on riser restoration.
