July 24, 2001 Graybar (www.graybar.com) and IMAP (www.imap.textron.com), recently announced that the distributor will market IMAP's cable-management software package docIT. IMAP is part of Tempo, a Textron company; the docIT system is designed to manage data-communications and telecommunications information for labeling, testing, and documenting. IMAP is a business partner of Microsoft Visio, and the docIT package is compliant with the proposed TIA/EIA-606A standard.
"Cable-installation professionals recognize the time constraint and financial challenges of effectively managing a cabling environment," said Brian Julian, director of sales and marketing at IMAP. "docIT provides a complete picture of the cabling infrastructure, allowing technicians to reduce discovery time, improve service, and reduce costs."
"Many of our customers are looking for a reliable way to manage complex cable installations and be compliant with the new 606A standard," said Jeff Craig, enterprise market manager at Graybar.
"docIT provides our contractor customers an extremely effective solution that transitions them to the consultant role, adds value to the job, builds loyalty with their customer base, and does so at an affordable price," said Karl Griffith, Graybar's director, reseller markets.
