Telecom infrastructure engineering and managed services with field operations
CCI Systems delivers network engineering, design, and field services for telecom carriers and service providers. The stack reveals a CAD-forward, geospatial-heavy operation (AutoCAD, ArcGIS, Smallworld GIS, FME) combined with traditional databases (SQL, Power BI), built around permit workflows, site surveys, and fiber deployment—not software products. Hiring velocity is accelerating in engineering (the largest department by count), with active projects centered on automating drafting workflows and streamlining permit processes, suggesting internal pain around project throughput and compliance.
CCI Systems is a privately held, employee-owned provider of telecommunications engineering and managed services based in Iron Mountain, Michigan. The company serves service providers and regional carriers with a full-service model: network assessments, engineering design, field installation, fiber splicing, cybersecurity consulting, and 24/7 operations support. Core competencies span permitting and zoning for telecom deployments, network planning, coverage gap analysis, and site suitability modeling. Operations span commercial surveys, CAD standards, and infrastructure maintenance—typical of firms managing the design-to-deployment lifecycle for mid-sized carrier networks.
CCI Systems uses AutoCAD, ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, Smallworld GIS, and FME for geospatial analysis and drafting; SQL, Power BI, and Excel for data and reporting; and OTDR for fiber-optic testing.
Active projects include CAD standards documentation, drafting workflow automation, permit package preparation, network coverage gap analysis, telecom permitting and zoning approvals, and predictive modeling for site suitability.
