About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

The Report, HFS Top 10: Enterprise Blockchain Service Providers, 2021, assessed 12 leading blockchain services providers based on detailed discussions with their leadership teams, inputs from their enterprise clients, and analysis of thousands of blockchain engagements across industries worldwide.

Accenture ranked No. 1 overall as well as in four of the 12 evaluation criteria, including scale and growth, delivery footprint, ecosystem reach and OneOffice alignment.

“Our position in this HFS report reflects the strong combination of Accenture’s deep technology expertise coupled with robust ecosystem and industry consortium relationships, along with a top-notch global team dedicated to solving our clients’ complex business challenges,” said David Treat a senior managing director who leads Accenture’s Tech Incubation Group. “Our continued investments in emerging technologies and professional development are critical priorities for us as we strive to create new value for clients worldwide.”

Accenture’s notable strengths cited in the report are:

  • Structure and scale: One of the biggest shifts in Accenture’s blockchain business this year was its transition from a strategic initiative to a distinct business within Accenture Technology.
  • Emerging technology strategy: Accenture believes strongly that blockchain alone is not the answer, and as such is weaving a selection of emerging technologies into its blockchain engagements to provide innovative solutions that deliver genuine value.
  • Ecosystem reach: Accenture has a broad partnership ecosystem that includes IBM, Amazon, and Google, which it leverages throughout its engagements; it also founded and contributed to countless consortiums, generating value across a range of key stakeholders.
  • Research and development: Accenture invests heavily in research and development across its entire business, and the blockchain space is no different, as it boasts one of the largest spends across its peer group.
  • Talent investment: Alongside its existing blockchain dedicated and proficient headcount, Accenture has developed its “Technology Quotient” training program, which will see most of its employees receiving training from blockchain subject matter experts and ecosystem partners; alongside its plan to increase their blockchain-focused headcount by 25% in the next 12 months.

“Accenture’s clients told us that their ability to bring cross-business processes to support their blockchain engagements was a key strength, demonstrating the positive impact of their operating model,” said Sam Duncan, Associate Practice Leader at HFS Research. “This, in combination with their ability to weave a catalogue of emerging technologies into their blockchain engagements, is why they are a leader in Enterprise Blockchain Services.” © 2021 HFS Research Ltd.

In addition to being ranked number one overall in the HFS Research report, Accenture was recently positioned as a leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Blockchain Services 2020 Vendor Assessment and recognized in the HFS Top 10 Enterprise Blockchain Services 2020 Report.
