Render Networks Launches Self-Serve Blueprinting to Enhance Operational Flexibility and Accelerate Network Builds

By: via Business Wire

Render Networks, a leader in network construction management technology, today launched its Self-Serve Blueprinting solution. This innovative approach to network deployment provides network operators and builders with greater autonomy to manage and execute their projects by leveraging Render’s advanced Blueprinting capability, which automates manual construction processes and turns network designs into digitally scoped work in minutes.

Blueprinting is a cornerstone of Render’s platform, enabling customers to streamline construction workflows, eliminate manual processes, and significantly reduce administrative overhead. By transforming network designs into sequenced, ready-to-work tasks - such as conduit placement, fiber splicing, or equipment installation - Blueprinting ensures that field crews remain productive and projects are completed on time. With Self-Serve Blueprinting, organizations gain flexibility to independently manage projects of any size, saving valuable time and resources while maintaining the accuracy needed for compliance reporting.

“Self-Serve Blueprinting is a game-changer for our customers,” said Rob Laudati, Vice President of Product and Partnerships at Render Networks. “By putting more control into their hands, we’re enabling them to tailor their workflows, deliver projects faster, and connect their customers sooner. This example of ‘intelligent automation’ embodies Render’s commitment to equipping network operators and builders with the tools they need to excel amid the high and growing demands of today’s broadband market.”

“Render’s Self-Serve Blueprinting allows us to have complete control over how we manage and release work,” said Joshua Collver, Director of OSP Operations at Irby Utilities. “The flexibility of this feature, combined with the speed and accuracy of Blueprinting, has transformed the way we approach network construction. We can take a GIS design and make it fully constructable in less than half a day, enabling us to complete projects faster, optimize resources, and ensure quality at the scale necessary to support our rapidly growing business.”

With Self-Serve Blueprinting, Render continues to advance its mission of transforming network construction by enabling faster builds, reduced costs, and greater project efficiencies. This new functionality is designed to help network operators and builders meet growing broadband demand, ensuring faster deployments and greater accessibility to communities in need.

About Render Networks

Founded in 2013 with a mission to build and connect communities faster, Render has a successful history of streamlining large-scale network construction for network operators and construction teams. By automating manual tasks and optimizing the productivity of every resource, Render’s construction management platform eliminates process inefficiency, achieving real-time progress transparency and building networks >15% faster.
