Proof of Concept
What's included
Of course we understand you wish to see if our engineering method matches your requirements.
The ITS team has proven to be capable of handling large FTTH projects and is experienced in engineering. To give our clients an idea of what the design will look like when its finished, we typically give a proof of concept before starting on the full project. This test project will use the same set-up as the full project and will result in a complete set of deliverables. After approval of both sides on: delivered data by client, working process by ITS and the deliverables to the client, we can start the full-scale project.Interested in a demonstration or engineering services?

About us
ITSimplicity Solutions
ITS-NetProgress™ is an FTTH / FTTx planning solution created by ITSimplicity Solutions BV. Our company’s mission is to serve our customers in the best way possible by offering our expertise, smart solutions and engineering services. We support companies by providing alternative FTTH network concepts and calculations, deliver cost optimized network designs with substantial cost savings and continue to support local initiatives in FTTH in rural areas, villages and cities in every possible way.
ITSimplicity Solutions BV was founded in 2013 when the Draka / Prysmian project and software engineering team took over all OSP software tools & solutions, rights and ownerships and started their independent company.
With over 25 years of experience in providing top level solutions and services to design, plan, build and maintain OSP Telecommunication networks, we’ve now developed a new web-based FTTH planning software that suits the needs of the FTTH/ FTTx business: ITS-NetProgress™.
