Published 2 days ago via Business Wire

Render Networks, a leader in network construction management technology, today announced that Douglas Fast Net (DFN), a 100% local fiber internet service provider, has chosen Render’s construction management platform to streamline operations and drive the growth of its fiber broadband network in Southern Oregon.

Serving residential, business, and government customers, DFN has built a reputation for delivering reliable, high-performance connectivity across some of Oregon’s most underserved communities. As a small local provider with a highly dedicated team spread across the region, DFN faces challenges in scaling its operations and managing construction capacity as its network continues to expand. Render’s platform will empower DFN to overcome these hurdles by providing real-time digital mapping, optimized productivity tracking, and efficient work breakdown structures.

“At Render, we’re committed to helping network operators like DFN overcome the unique challenges of scaling broadband connectivity to rural areas,“ said Don Wadas, Chief Revenue Officer of Render Networks. “DFN’s vision for delivering 100% local, reliable fiber internet is exactly the kind of transformative mission our platform is built to support. By modernizing their construction management process, DFN will be able to expand faster and more efficiently, providing critical broadband access to more communities.”

By transitioning from manual paper-based processes to Render’s digital construction management platform, DFN will gain real-time visibility into project progress and instantly collect as-built data from the field. This streamlined approach ensures DFN can scale operations effectively and manage an increasing number of construction crews with ease.

“As we continue to grow, ensuring the accuracy of our construction operations and scalability of our processes is critical,” said Todd Way, CEO of DFN. “Render’s platform stood out for its ease of use, seamlessness implementation, and its proven ability to support organizations like ours in scaling operations efficiently. Render will allow us to deliver reliable fiber connectivity to even more communities across Southern Oregon.”

Render’s established track record in the marketplace, paired with its advanced Blueprinting capabilities, also played a key role in DFN’s decision. Blueprinting automates manual construction processes by transforming network designs into digitally scoped work, providing clear and actionable “ready to work” task management. This combination of industry expertise and innovative technology made Render the ideal choice to support DFN’s expanding network.
