What IMMCO, Inc does

IMMCO, Inc. is a telecommunications network design and engineering firm founded in 1992 and headquartered in Canton, Georgia. Since its July 2021 acquisition by GTS (Gibson Technical Services), IMMCO has operated as a subsidiary focused on end-to-end network design services — covering 5G wireless, fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), hybrid fiber coax (HFC), and copper — alongside proprietary software and custom enterprise application development. With 1,000+ telecom professionals (including 800+ designers) and offices in the US, India (Kochi and Hyderabad), Australia, and the Netherlands, the company has designed more than 4 million FTTH/FTTP passings globally across national broadband programs including Australia's NBN, Ireland's NBI, and US RDOF projects.

IMMCO's core software products are iBISS™, a real-time collaboration platform (patents pending) that connects office-based designers with field walkout and construction teams via geotagged photo/video capture, automated change-management workflows, and API integration with Trimble/GPS devices; and iFAST™, an automated fiber design tool that produces a 2,000-home OLT design in 30 minutes with built-in cost modeling and ROI analysis. The underlying technology stack spans Java, JavaScript, and Python; Oracle and PostgreSQL databases; AWS cloud infrastructure; and multiple GIS platforms (AutoCAD, Bentley MicroStation, QGIS, MapInfo, SpatialNet, SmallWorld). IMMCO also builds custom enterprise applications — Construction Workflow Management System (CWMS), Centralized Knowledge Repository (CKR), Project Cost Estimator (PCE), and Quality Control (QC) Tool — integrated with customer-side systems including Salesforce, Essbase, Clarity, and Bentley platforms. Approximately a decade of applied AI/ML experience underpins automation of node-split work, HFC deployment, and fiber routing.

The business model combines project-based professional services (network design, geospatial/GIS, right-of-way permitting across 150+ US municipalities) with software licensing for iBISS™ and iFAST™ and one-time custom development engagements. GTM is direct enterprise field sales with regional SVP Business Development leaders (USA, Europe, ANZ), supported by Premier Membership in the Fiber Broadband Association and active participation in events such as SCTE Cable-Tec Expo and Gigabit Access. ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications support enterprise-grade security and quality positioning, and IMMCO has explicitly aligned its offerings with the US $42.45B BEAD broadband program.
