Need referal for Wiring Co

[7532]

We are a large facility and have just tossed out our wiring folks after 15 years of service. Anyone know any good referals that I can call in the area. we are located in Winfield, IL. This would be a huge contract.

I would post this in the wiring forum. I would bet you could get some people that could help you. I would recommend that you look for someone that is BICSI certified if this is for your network cabling.

Thanks, Mike. I will post it there too. However we do need Avaya certifed techs as we have many affliate centers with Avaya switches.

So you are needing a phone tech to do your admin, cross connects, installations and wiring then? Or you are looking someone to pull and terminate Cat5/telephone cables?

A combination of both. We have several quotes coming but with no referrals.

I have worked with techs from Rex Electric in the Northwest burbs area, and can heartily recommend them. Their Class-C (low-voltage) guys are great. I wasn't in charge of them, but I had to work behind them as the voice tech, and there was never any problem. They would always check with me before pulling cables, and would ask me how I wanted the new drops numbered.

If this recomendation is a violation of the Tek-Tips policy, I apologize.

Above is the BICSI link for you. That should help with the cabling person. For the telephone systems tech, you may want to a national job finding services. In our area, not to long ago another hospital found someone that relocated here for their job. This link to careerbuilder may help.

Try looking at ACS. They are all over. We use them to do all of our cable runs, x connects and they do a great job.
