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.

AdvicePay Acquires AdvisorBOB, a Leading Advisor Compensation Platform

--News Direct--

AdvicePay, the industry-leading platform for managing billing, payments, and compliance of fee-for-service financial planning, today announced the acquisition of AdvisorBOB, the leading independent advisor compensation software company. This marks AdvicePay’s first acquisition and a strategic step forward to support the full revenue lifecycle for advisory firms, from billing clients to paying advisors.

The transaction reflects AdvicePay’s continued focus on strategic, customer-driven growth. It was completed without the need for outside capital, a reflection of the company’s strong financial foundation and disciplined approach to expansion. AdvisorBOB adds complementary functionality to AdvicePay’s offering, enabling firms to automate advisor compensation and eliminate manual spreadsheet-based processes.

“AdvicePay was created to solve the pain points around billing and compliance for fee-for-service financial planning. Expanding into compensation is a natural extension of that mission,” said Alan Moore, AdvicePay Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “We consistently hear from firms that comp is a major operational headache. This isn’t about replacing software – it’s about replacing spreadsheets. It becomes a critical need the moment you have variable comp. You need a system that gets it right, down to the penny.”

AdvisorBOB automates complex advisor compensation calculations and payout tracking, offering transparency, line-item detail, and time-saving efficiencies for back-office teams. Firms using both platforms will be positioned to ensure clients are billed properly and advisors are paid accurately, without the manual burden.

“Our origin story is very similar to that of AdvicePay, as we are both advisor-founded technology companies built because there weren’t products that fit our needs,” said James Spinelli, Founder of AdvisorBOB and Chief Executive Officer of Great Valley Advisor Group. “AdvisorBOB joining AdvicePay allows us to help even more firms simplify operations and scale with confidence.”

AdvisorBOB’s team, including Chief Executive Officer Colton Pence, will join AdvicePay and continue to operate from its offices in Berwyn, PA.

“With this acquisition, AdvicePay is validating the contributions AdvisorBOB has made to advisor practices,” Pence said. “Together, we’re well-positioned to help firms grow with the operational infrastructure they need.”

This move aligns with AdvicePay’s long-term vision: to support the full advisor revenue flow—from invoice to payout—with modern tools and actionable data. While both platforms will continue to operate independently for now, the future potential of their combined capabilities opens the door to deeper insights and better back-office experiences for firms.

“We’re not shifting to an M&A strategy,” added Moore. “This was an opportunity that aligned perfectly with our roadmap and values. AdvisorBOB and AdvicePay are powerful on their own—but together, they make the back office smarter, faster, and more scalable.”

AdvicePay was advised by Cooley LLP as legal counsel, with financial advisory support provided by Turkey Hill Management, LLC. AdvisorBOB’s legal counsel was provided by Stradley Ronon.
