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.

GAINS

GAINS, a leading provider of cloud-based solutions for optimizing supply chain performance, announced record results in 2022. Revenue from its award-winning Performance Optimization Platform grew 44 percent with a 115 percent net customer retention rate. The company's growth was fueled by customers affected by increased inventory costs from higher interest rates and volatility in market supply and demand. GAINS added customers of all sizes, ranging from $100 million to more than $20 billion in revenue, including wholesale distribution, discrete manufacturing, supply parts, specialty retail, consumer goods, and metals.

"The results our customers achieved in 2022 are driving our success," said Joe Olson, CEO of GAINS. "Today's inventory-intensive businesses face supply chain complexity, higher on-time service needs, and greater cost concerns. They must optimize their demand, supply, inventory, and replenishment decisions to operate in times of dramatic volatility. The GAINS Performance Optimization Platform helps our customers confidently fulfill their customer promises."

Record Number of Companies Look to GAINS

In 2022, a record number of businesses turned to GAINS to drive growth through better decision-making, optimize their supply chains, and redesign their inventory, supply, and replenishment strategies. In a period of market volatility and excess inventories, outdated policies and broken processes affect companies of all sizes. Poor decisions have increased the financial risk of having inventory in the wrong places while shortages build up elsewhere. The GAINS platform allows companies to confidently support their customers' needs by delivering the right product, quantity, and location at the right time.

Delivering Unrivaled Customer Success

Industry benchmark studies from the Boston Consulting Group show that 70 percent of data transformation projects fail. These failed deployments have led many businesses to switch to GAINS in 2022. Our 100 percent implementation success rate using the GAINS Proven-Path-to-Performance (P3)SM deployment methodology delivers continuous, incremental value for every customer. 

Innovating with New User Design, Machine Learning, and AI 

GAINS continued to innovate in the past year, launching an improved user experience with GAINS X at the annual GAINS Summit in September 2022. The new platform better connects supply chain professionals with enhanced design, insightful visual cues, and action-oriented workflows. Delivered in partnership with our customers, this new user experience ensures easier and faster decision-making to keep pace with their ever-evolving business needs.

Our data scientists at GAINS Labs also delivered pragmatic AI and machine learning solutions that solve today's increasingly complex supply chain challenges. These advancements focus on better lead times prediction, long-term demand sensing, geospatial modeling, and automated business processes to improve inventory and supply chain health. 

Acting on Sustainability 

Sustainable practices are essential to GAINS employees, communities, and customers as they seek business partners who share this commitment and can deliver measurable impact. GAINS worked with our customers to address environmental and social issues through direct engagements, including ongoing partnerships with Barco's Nightingales and Chicago Public Schools. 

Expanding Leadership with Customer Engagement Veterans

GAINS added new leadership to improve customer engagements, expand capabilities, and add diverse supply-chain expertise to guide growth. In 2022, the company welcomed Kay Rindels as Vice President of Marketing, supply-chain industry veteran Jeff Metersky as Vice President of Solution Strategy, and Jason Read as Vice President of Corporate Development.
