InfraPro for Fiber Optic & Telecom Contractors in Africa

Fiber network rollout, ISP infrastructure & telecommunications construction projects

InfraPro provides fiber optic and telecommunications contractors with an integrated project management platform — covering route survey, BOQ management, wayleave tracking, installation request control, cable reconciliation, splice records, as-built documentation, and ISP billing certification from a single system.

1,000+Fiber km the platform is designed to manage
6+Project types supported end-to-end
Field-verifiedAs-built records — captured at point of installation
Real-timeIR completion visibility for ISP clients

Fiber optic network deployment demands precision at every stage — from route survey and wayleave acquisition through civil works, fiber pulling, splicing, OTDR testing, and final network handover. Contractors managing multiple simultaneous routes, coordinating trenching, pulling, and splicing teams across different subcontractors, and reconciling kilometers of cable and conduit against BOQ quantities face operational complexity that spreadsheets cannot adequately address. InfraPro gives fiber and telecom contractors structured control over the entire network construction cycle — from route design to certified ISP handover.

Everything Your Projects Need — In One Platform

InfraPro covers every layer of fiber optic & telecom project delivery, from design and procurement to site execution, subcontractor management, payroll, and funder reporting.

Route & Segment-Based Project Structure

Projects are organised by routes, segments, and nodes — matching the natural structure of fiber network deployments. Track civil works, cable installation, and splicing progress independently per route segment.

Installation Request Management

Raise, assign, and close Installation Requests (IRs) with field verification. IRs are linked to BOQ items, enabling certified progress reporting directly from completed installation records.

Cable & Conduit Reconciliation by Metre

Every cable drum and conduit length issued from store is tracked against a route segment and BOQ line. Automated reconciliation reports flag discrepancies between issued and installed quantities before final account.

Digital As-Built Records from the Field

Splice positions, joint enclosure locations, duct lengths, manhole coordinates, and pole attachments are captured on the mobile app by field technicians — producing an accurate, timestamped as-built record throughout construction.

Multi-Subcontractor Coordination

Assign civil works, fiber pulling, and splicing to separate subcontractors or teams within the same project. Track each team's progress, material usage, and quality records independently, with consolidated reporting at project level.

ISP & Client Project Portal

Provide ISP project managers or network operations teams with secure portal access to route-level progress, IR completion status, and as-built data — facilitating acceptance certification without administrative correspondence.

The Challenges Fiber Optic & Telecom Contractors Face in Africa

These aren't edge cases — they are the daily reality of running fiber optic & telecom projects across Africa without the right system.

Wayleave and permit delays are invisible blockers

County government and private landowner wayleave approvals are unpredictable. Without a system to track application status by route segment, delays accumulate undetected and disrupt the construction programme for weeks before they are escalated.

Cable and conduit losses are difficult to detect

Reconciling kilometers of cable and conduit issued from store against what is recorded as installed requires disciplined metering per segment. Without BOQ-linked issuance tracking, losses only become apparent at final account.

Splice quality and rework is costly and poorly tracked

Splice test results, rework rates, and quality performance per technician or team are rarely captured in a structured format. Poor splice quality is detected late, by which time rework costs and programme delays have already accumulated.

As-built documentation is consistently late and incomplete

Network operators require accurate as-built records for systems integration and acceptance. Compiling field notes, sketches, and photographs into structured documentation months after construction is time-consuming and prone to inaccuracy.

Multi-contractor coordination is operationally fragmented

Trenching, fiber pulling, and splicing are frequently executed by separate contractors on overlapping timescales. Without a central system, interface management between contractors generates gaps, delays, and disputed handover points.

ISP billing certification is slow and disputed

ISPs certify payment against completed and verified Installation Requests. Without field-verified IR records, contractors lack the evidential basis to support payment claims, and certification cycles extend by weeks.

How InfraPro Solves Every Challenge

Every module in InfraPro is designed around the specific operational realities of fiber optic & telecom projects — not adapted from generic software.

Project Management
Route and segment management with wayleave tracking

Structure projects by route, segment, and node. Track wayleave application status per segment with alert flags for overdue approvals. Programme dependencies are visible before they become critical-path blockers.

Installation Requests
IR lifecycle management — raised to certified

Installation Requests are raised against BOQ items, assigned to field teams, and closed with verified completion records. IR completion status is available to the ISP client portal in real time, forming the evidential basis for billing certification.

Learn more →
Material Reconciliation
Cable reconciliation from drum to installed metre

Each cable drum issued from store is tracked to a specific route segment and BOQ line. Reconciliation reports compare issued cable and conduit lengths against field-recorded installed quantities — enabling proactive loss detection throughout the project.

Learn more →
Progress Tracking
Continuous as-built capture from field technicians

Splice positions, joint locations, duct lengths, and manhole coordinates are entered on the mobile app at the point of installation. As-built records are compiled progressively — eliminating the post-construction documentation effort.

Learn more →
Subcontractor Management
Independent tracking for each contractor discipline

Fiber installation and splicing contractors are assigned defined scope within the same project. Each contractor's progress, material draw-downs, and quality records are tracked independently — providing the project manager with discipline-level performance data.

Learn more →
Finance & Reporting
IPC and ISP billing reports from verified field data

InfraPro compiles certified IR completions and measured quantities into IPC valuations and monthly progress reports structured for ISP billing cycles and development funder reporting. Payment applications are supported by field-verified evidence.

From Route Survey to Network Handover

InfraPro covers every stage of the project lifecycle — so you never need to switch systems or reconcile data across tools.

01
Route Survey & BOQ Definition

Define route profiles, segment boundaries, and node locations. Import or build the BOQ per segment — cable types, conduit, accessories, and civil works quantities established before mobilisation.

02
Wayleave & Permit Management

Log wayleave applications per landowner and county authority. Track approval status per route segment; flag pending approvals that fall on the critical programme path.

03
Mobilisation & Material Issuance

Register subcontractors, configure payroll, set up site stores, and issue cable drums and civil materials against BOQ quantities per segment. All draw-downs recorded at point of issue.

04
Civil Works & Fiber Installation

Trenching, ducting, and fiber pulling progress recorded per segment via the mobile app. Installation Requests raised and tracked. Material usage logged per IR and segment.

05
Splicing, Testing & Quality Records

Splice completion, OTDR test results, and any rework records captured per splice point. Quality performance tracked per team. Deviations from acceptance criteria flagged immediately.

06
As-Built Compilation & Network Handover

As-built records compiled from field captures throughout the project. Final IR certification completed. Network handover package — including splice schedules, route maps, and test results — generated from platform data.

Common Questions from Fiber Optic & Telecom Contractors

Yes. InfraPro's Installation Request module provides a complete IR lifecycle — from creation and BOQ linkage through team assignment, field completion recording, and client certification. IR completion records form the evidential basis for ISP billing certification and are accessible through the client portal in real time.

Each cable drum or conduit length issued from store is recorded against a specific route segment and BOQ line item. As field teams log installed quantities, InfraPro computes the variance between issued and installed material per segment. Reconciliation reports are available throughout the project — enabling proactive loss identification rather than end-of-project discovery.

Yes. Wayleave applications are logged per route segment with the relevant landowner or authority, application date, and expected approval date. Segments with overdue approvals are flagged in the project dashboard, allowing the project manager to prioritise resolution before the delay becomes critical-path.

Rather than compiling as-built records after construction, InfraPro captures them progressively throughout the project. Field technicians enter splice positions, joint enclosure locations, duct lengths, and coordinates directly on the mobile app at the point of installation. The as-built record is built continuously — eliminating the post-completion documentation effort and the inaccuracies that accompany retrospective record compilation.

Yes. Different subcontractors can be assigned to separate scope packages within the same project — civil works, fiber pulling, and splicing managed independently with their own progress tracking, material allocation, and payment records. The project manager has a consolidated view across all contractors at project level.

Yes. InfraPro compiles verified IR completions, measured BOQ quantities, and progress data into IPC valuations formatted for ISP billing cycles. Supporting evidence — field completion records, photographic documentation, and test results — is attached to each certificate, providing the ISP's project team with the information required for certification without protracted back-and-forth correspondence.

Generic tools lack the route-based project structure, IR management module, cable reconciliation by metre, progressive as-built capture, and ISP portal access that fiber contractors require. InfraPro is configured around the operational reality of network construction — providing discipline-specific progress tracking, material management at the drum and metre level, and documentation workflows that align with telecom client acceptance processes.
