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.

ServiceTitan Announces Strategic Partnership with SRS Distribution to Streamline Roofing Purchasing

New Catalog and Purchasing Integration Will Simplify Procurement, Drive Transparency, Improve Accuracy, and Automate Purchasing for Contractors

ServiceTitan, a leading software platform built to power the trades, today announced its partnership with SRS Distribution Inc. (SRS), a leading supplier of roofing materials. With this new integration, ServiceTitan will empower roofers with enhanced efficiency and transparency through streamlined materials procurement and purchasing automation.

“We are committed to providing roofers with the transformative solutions they need to enhance their business and better serve their customers,” said Chris Petros, general manager of residential markets at ServiceTitan. “Our partnership brings the power of SRS into ServiceTitan, equipping roofers with a streamlined workflow that reduces the time between estimate, order, and execution.”

The integration’s first phase brings SRS suppliers' catalogs into the ServiceTitan platform, allowing contractors to build visually compelling proposals by browsing detailed product descriptions and images for thousands of items and variants, along with daily automatic price updates ensuring accuracy. The second phase will enable roofers to check real-time item pricing and availability at supplier branches, submit orders electronically directly to the supplier's ERP, and receive order and delivery status notifications.

"With great excitement, we announce our partnership with ServiceTitan, making SRS Distribution the first roofing distributor to fully integrate with their innovative platform,” said Rajeev Rai, EVP & chief digital officer at SRS. “This collaboration will redefine contractor operations with seamless digital solutions that enhance project workflows. ServiceTitan empowers roofing companies, including private equity firms, franchise organizations, and multi-location businesses, to manage multiple entities effectively, gaining valuable insights into performance metrics. Together, with both companies' focus on innovation, SRS Distribution and ServiceTitan are driving efficiency and unlocking new sales growth opportunities in the roofing industry."

Earlier this year, ServiceTitan released a survey of roofing and exterior contractors, which identified increasing overhead and materials prices as two of its most significant challenges. Many contractors face these obstacles and view technology and digital transformation as solutions to manage their businesses and operations effectively.

Phase 1 of the integration will be available to customers in Winter 2024 and Phase 2 in Spring 2025.

The first phase of this new integration will be available by the end of 2024 for all ServiceTitan roofing and exterior contractor customers with an SRS account ID. The second phase will become available in the Spring of 2025.
