New Vision Virtual Engineering

New Vision Engineering is a new process for the completion of programmable outside plant engineering projects and initiatives. By partitioning work content and directing activities to specific resources, significant savings can be achieved.

New Vision Engineering offers engineering service when needed for unit, lump and bid models, and moves the cost of recurring engineering activities to a pay-as-you-go model that is only invoked when work is at hand. Client workforce can be significantly reduced using this model.

Managed service capabilities are available to support “turnkey” projects and initiatives.

New Vision Virtual Hub Engineering

With face-to-face representatives at principle client locations, engineering resources can be maximized. Detailed, national fielding is accomplished by local AFL resources. Engineering is completed in “client proprietary” databases with electronic portals to client records and inventory.
