Parsons Corporation recently called on PacifiCom for assistance with a fast track project in El Segundo, CA. Several temporary office trailers needed voice and data communications to support their on-site staff of engineers and project managers. This was a design-build project and needed to be accomplished very quickly.
Aldo Andrade, PacifiCom Solutions Engineer, met with Parsons to perform an initial site survey and preliminary cabling infrastructure design to support the trailers and workstations. The project also required a fiber optic link to connect the trailers to the West Basin Municipal Water District communications closet (MDF). This required a considerable amount of site research and coordination with the water district. Working quickly to accommodate Parson’s request for rapid deployment, Aldo finalized the design, prepared a budget and reviewed the project schedule with the client.
Parsons approved the plan and PacifiCom responded quickly. The experienced team, which included PacifiCom technicians Frank, Brian, Alrick and Ken, performed beyond the normal call of duty by working long hours and doing whatever was necessary to complete the project on time and within budget. Some of the obstacles encountered included manholes full of mud. PacifiCom techs took this in stride. They dug out the mud and cleared the conduits so that the fiber optic link to the water district could be installed on time. Once the project was completed, the techs stayed late with Parson’s Chris Pham to assist with system start up. The Parsons team praised PacifiCom’s dedication and commitment to delivering critical network connections in a timely manner.
