Carrier Enterprise Network Solutions

What Carrier Enterprise Network Solutions does

CENS (Carrier & Enterprise Network Solutions) is a Lima, Peru-headquartered private technology services firm founded in 2017 that delivers end-to-end telecommunications infrastructure and IT services to telecom operators, government agencies, financial institutions, and large enterprises across Latin America. The company operates four business lines: (1) Telecomunicaciones — site acquisition, engineering, civil works, wireless and fiber optic deployment, drive testing, and operation & maintenance; (2) Servicios TI — 24/7 Help Desk (L1/L2/L3), NOC monitoring, SOC security operations, BPO, and custom software development; (3) Infraestructura/Ciberseguridad — hardware and software supply, virtualization, RPA, cloud, advanced networking (SD-WAN, RFID), and cybersecurity; and (4) Consultoría — knowledge management consulting centered on the proprietary KnowHub platform, described as patent-pending, with modules for knowledge capture, structure, transfer, and a gamified 'Huella de Conocimiento' metric. CENS holds five ISO certifications (27001, 9001, 14001, 37001, 45001), employs 300+ technical professionals, and maintains active operations in Peru, Paraguay, Ecuador, Colombia, and Miami, with announced expansion plans for Mexico and Chile.

The company monetizes primarily through project-based professional services contracts and multi-year enterprise engagements with telecommunications operators (Entel, Gilat, American Tower, Ericsson, Phoenix Tower, Huawei, TCS), government ministries (Ministerio de Salud, Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, Migraciones), and large corporations across financial services (Banco Pichincha, Diners Club, Caja Arequipa), retail (OXXO), manufacturing (Pacasmayo), and utilities (Luz del Sur). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with quote-based pricing on complex infrastructure projects, supplemented by subscription-tier cybersecurity offerings and managed services with SLA-based recurring billing. Channel presence is light — LinkedIn thought leadership, WhatsApp Business, and industry events (e.g., SNCI membership since 2024) — with no disclosed external funding rounds, suggesting the firm is bootstrapped and founder/management-owned.
