Hawaiian Telcom Deployed KloudGin Field Service & Asset Cloud

Hawaiian Telcom leverages KloudGin for fiber optic cable installation projects across all Hawaiian islands. Long-cycle fiber project details, schedules, budgets, and tasks are defined in KloudGin and then routed for approval and build cycle from Planning to Engineering to Operations teams.

Work Queue management and SLA templates are also managed through the KloudGin application. Stakeholders are notified of progress of capital work at various stages of execution as well as financial and schedule risks through KloudGin notifications.

All short-cycle customer service field orders are auto scheduled, route optimized, dispatched, and mobile executed on KloudGin. KloudGin is used across project construction, asset maintenance, and customer service field orders. KloudGin is automating all of our Outside Plant and Inside Plant work orders and now we have centralized work order management cloud system between planning, engineering and OPCEN. KloudGin is able to handle complex workflows including single work order and multiple operations with multi day crews and other unique nuances specific to the telecom industry. KloudGin application handles Drops and Regular Installs and handles work movement and completion between repair crews and conduit crews. 

With KloudGin, Hawaiian Telcom has a single scheduling engine, an appointment quota management and dispatch board for both long-cycle (fiber deployment, transmission, central office equipment) and short-cycle (customer facing jobs like installs and repairs).

All field crews (employees and subcontractors) have a single native mobile app which is easy to use, deploy and maintain. Moving to KloudGin automated scheduling is driving better operational efficiency and efficient use of their resources and hence driving customer satisfaction.
