Your solutions keep communities
safe and connected.
Between new technology and greater demands on the grid, your team must balance safety requirements, structural limits, and customer demands to connect homes and maintain reliability for communities across the country. Your expertise transforms complex challenges into reliable infrastructure and services.
Telecom Design
Manage and maintain standards for telecom projects across pole owner footprints and leverage new staff from day one for faster deployment.
Distribution Design
Calculate pole loading analysis, suggest pole replacements, and leverage 3D views of your network for faster, more intuitive designing.
Maintaining standards isn't easy.
The ins and outs of engineering design are complex, and teams spend precious time checking for violations and calculating pole loading analysis. All that work needs to be clearly communicated with construction crews and shared with the right people to ensure reliable services reach your customers.
Design effective solutions with confidence.
Create detailed engineering designs and maximize your team’s bandwidth with Katapult Pro Engineering Design. Import and adjust clearances to build safe designs based on your region’s standards. With auto-flagging and real-time pole loading analysis, you can focus on designing and sharing solutions for faster, safer builds.
OSP Design
Design effective solutions without years of experience.
With the number of projects and improvements your team is tackling, your time is best spent teaching the right solutions rather than training staff to identify violations.
Leverage new staff from day one with Katapult Pro. Import NESC or GO95 clearances and adjust rules for your standards to automatically flag violations. With informed moves and real-time pole loading analysis, create and share effective engineering plans and construction packages for new builds.
Distribution Design
Create reliable networks on one platform.
As if engineering wasn’t complicated enough, disconnected platforms and siloed data make it even more difficult to deliver clear construction packages.
Build and maintain your grid using with Katapult Pro Engineering Design. Model designs in 3D view, run pole loading analysis, and populate construction packages to share and communicate with other teams for faster, safer builds.
Features
Distribution Standards and Clearances
Import national clearances and make ready standards and adjust based on specific regulations within your footprint. Auto-flag all clearance violations at once for an entire project.
Integrated Pole Loading Analysis
Leverage existing and proposed pole data and a built-in loading engine to view pole loading resulting in real-time while you design.
Cost Estimates and Filtering
Evaluate pre-existing attachment violations using attacher filters to see where construction went wrong and who might be responsible. Estimate construction costs to evaluate expensive moves.
Hosted Utility Standards
Set specific engineering standards based on your area and auto-flag violations across all projects.
Make Ready Notifications
Generate a report with one click to highlight required make ready work. Break down work based on simple versus complex for one touch make ready.
Construction Package Creation
Use engineering plans to create complete construction packages for faster builds. Integrate with legacy systems using web automations or API tools.
ADB Companies
"Since moving to Katapult Pro we have been able to double production for engineering time on a weekly basis. Fielding timelines have increased drastically as well due to the ease of use within the software. Roll backs have reduced by 90%. Customization has far exceeded expectations and no other software can compare when it comes to functionality and integration into existing work flows. Everything from photo forms, map sets, and being able to share projects with clients to gain real time updates far exceeds competitors."

"Having the software work as a system to show changed midspans clearances was a game changer. Guying and Mid-spans are the hardest things to teach in this industry and the Katapult solution made these easier. It is a more consistent product, and a platform that will work across many different types of projects. The customer service, the training was incredible and added a lot of value to the team. It is full cycle solution that has everything required at your fingertips."

Wagner Technical Services
"Wagner Technical Services has performed make-ready analysis using many techniques over the past 25 years and Katapult is, by far, our favorite. We have used it on approximately 130,000 poles and it is easily the most efficient system for this type of work.
Katapult is a mature, well-designed product that makes it easy to keep everything organized. The flexibility of the platform allows for variations on deliverables and changes depending on the contract. We can provide our clients with professional, annotated pictures or an online website with photos and annotations."
