Built for how telecoms installation businesses work
Cabling records, planned maintenance and test certification in one system.
Build detailed cabling quotes for structured cabling, fibre, VoIP, CCTV and access control. Include cable types, patch panels, switches, POE requirements, containment and labour. Customers get a full specification document they can take to their IT team.
Log cable runs, patch panel layouts, test certificate results (Fluke/IDEAL) and outlet reference numbers per installation. Build a full as-built record per site that the customer can use for future moves and changes.
Store NEXT, FEXT, return loss and length test results per cable run. Generate test certificate reports per site. Keep cabling certification accessible for warranty claims and network troubleshooting.
Create annual and quarterly maintenance agreements for CCTV systems, access control, VoIP systems and network infrastructure. Auto-schedule visits, log findings and auto-raise invoices after each completed call.
Manage large commercial clients with multiple sites — offices, warehouses, schools, retail chains. Each site has its own cabling record, CCTV system log and planned maintenance schedule in one linked account.
Track leads from IT procurement contacts, property management companies, main contractors and Google. Know which source generates your best commercial cabling contracts.
Capture photos of equipment rooms, patch panels, cable routes, CCTV locations and access control points. Attach to project records and handover packs for FM managers.
Describe the site — floor plan size, number of drops, CCTV camera count, access control points — and Trade2Base drafts a network infrastructure quote with materials, labour and test certification.
Build a cabling record that survives the next IT manager
Most commercial cabling jobs end with a handover pack that gets lost in six months. When the next IT manager arrives and asks about cable runs, nobody knows. Trade2Base stores every outlet reference, patch panel port and test result against the project — accessible forever, shareable via portal link.
- Log every cable run with outlet reference, patch panel port and test result
- Store NEXT/FEXT/return loss results per outlet
- Generate a test certificate report per site
- Keep as-built cabling drawings against each project
- Share the site record with the client as a portal link
What telecoms engineers say
“The structured cabling records are why we keep winning FM contract renewals. When a facilities manager asks about a cable run we installed three years ago, we pull up the as-built record, the test results, the patch panel layout. They don't even think about switching contractor — we're the only ones with the data.”
“Planned maintenance contracts for CCTV and access control used to be a nightmare to manage manually. Trade2Base auto-schedules the visits, logs the findings and raises the invoice when the job is done. We went from 6 managed contracts to 22 in under a year because the admin stopped being a bottleneck.”
“I had no idea which leads were converting best. Trade2Base attribution showed that IT procurement referrals had a 60% close rate versus 20% from Google. We started investing in relationships with IT managers instead of ads and our average contract value doubled.”
Common questions from telecoms engineers
Yes. Each project has a test certificate store where you log NEXT, FEXT, return loss and length results per cable run. You can generate a test certificate report for the whole site and share it with the client via their portal link. Records stay attached to the project permanently — useful for warranty claims and future network changes.
Yes. You can create annual or quarterly maintenance agreements for any system type — CCTV, access control, VoIP, network infrastructure. Trade2Base auto-schedules the service visits, sends engineer reminders, logs findings after each visit and automatically raises the invoice. You get a clear view of all upcoming maintenance visits across all contracts.
Yes. Each client account can have multiple sites, each with its own cabling record, CCTV system log, access control inventory and maintenance schedule. Reports roll up across all sites for a client so you can see the total relationship value — useful when renewing contracts with large commercial clients.
Yes. Most Trade2Base telecoms customers manage project work — new installations, upgrades, expansions — alongside ongoing maintenance contracts. The job type system handles both, and reports break down revenue, margin and visit frequency separately for project work and maintenance so you can see which is more profitable.
