Why FTTx Project’s are Difficult to Manage.

1. Too many moving parts (from people management, scheduling, constructions crews to light reading)

2. It’s not one size fit’s all (a design can be perfect for an Urban environment while may be totally wrong for the Suburban or Rural topology)

3. It’s hard to find good trained people

4. Constant training is required for Technology, Standards and Process

5. Weather, permits and coordination between the stakeholders

6. Technology design and configuration: There are three parts in an FTTH network: the optical line terminal (OLT), optical network terminal (ONT) and the optical distribution network (ODN ). ODN strongly impacts the total cost, system performance and reliability of FTTH networks) has five components: feeder, optical cable distribution node, cable distribution part, cable access point and home access

7. Universal testing

8. Lack of Project Management tool which is easy to use, track budget, inventory and has easy to use knowledge repository

– Start a new empty project– Start a new project with all definitions from another project

• Within a project you can:– Define & modify materials & installation units manually– Copy certain (or all) materials & installation units definitions from other projects– Update material & installation unit definitions with relevant data & prices

• Project can be defined as…– Job level (work-order / activity): plant-unit codes with job-specific quantities– Plant-unit level (installation unit): material and/or labor, combination of components– Component level: a material or labor element
