Project Development
What can you do with what you have, and what more might you need?
Our service offerings range from project inception to final close-out. We can assist with all aspects of design & cost estimates through construction, to implementing a total network management package and processes. We help establish the network & data you will need to efficiently offer advanced services - while maintaining existing service.
MSC project services complement our engineering services. Mid-State clients are able to leverage our experience and expertise while realizing the cost benefits of not having to "gear up" or re-assign internal personnel. That said, we do want our client’s engineering & operating personnel to be involved in the design & network build-out, so that any project benefits from their experience and expertise also. And any handover period is brief and efficient.
Our goal once the network is built is to fade away smoothly – unless or until there may be a reason for us to be involved in any troubleshooting, or ongoing additional network development.

Regulatory Compliance
Is among the most burdensome tasks a company faces.

Mid-State keeps a watchful eye on all the latest developments, and our Regulatory Services offerings can assist your company in staying up-to-date and in compliance.
