Founded in 2008 by a group of telecommunication industry experts, SQUAN has grown from a regional company to become one of the best performing and innovative national engineering and construction companies delivering specialized telecommunication network design and deployment.

SQUAN was borne out of a market level client need for nimble and reliable telecommunication contractors in the New York metro market where SQUAN established its first Tier 1 contract with a Mobile Network Operator. In the six years that followed, SQUAN was successful in establishing contracts with two of the remaining Tier 1 Operators, three Tower Companies, two OEMs and a bourgeoning enterprise DAS market. Through the company’s performance record SQUAN began expanding into the Mid-Atlantic establishing an office in Berryville, Virginia.

The growth momentum of the company eventually led to one of its largest project engagements which put SQUAN on an industry fast-track for broad exposure as a mid-to-large contractor. In 2014 SQUAN sought out a financial partner to help fuel its national expansion and established a deal with RFE Investment Partners of New Canaan, CT. RFE purchased the company’s shares and established a plan for growth.

With RFE’s investment SQUAN was able to implement strategic acquisitions while strengthening the senior leadership team and growing organically which collectively helped propel the company to its national presence. In 2016 SQUAN acquired Osmose Communications Services (OCS) from Osmose Utilities Services. This acquisition, the first of several, added inhouse OSP/ISP engineering services, program and project management capabilities, along with OSP planning. The Acquisition of OCS also laid the foundational groundwork for the development of inhouse wireless A&E and site acquisition services. Most recently SQUAN acquired ElecComm, an electric and communications line construction company. This acquisition adds additional capabilities in underground high voltage cable and storm response services.

As the market need for fiber resources focused on telecommunication networks accelerated, in 2017 SQUAN acquired Communications Specialists, Inc. This acquisition immediately provided SQUAN with OSP/ISP construction capabilities, which was layered into the broadening services model and demonstrates a clear differentiator for what was originally a wireless only services business. The company also continued to add to its expanding fleet of bucket trucks, boring, lashing and splicing equipment, to meet the growing needs of SQUAN’s expanding client base.

Today SQUAN includes more than 400 full-time professionals in six offices throughout the U.S. Each day SQUAN teams create, design and build wireless networks with an eye towards the future and an emphasis on aerial and underground, OSP backbone fiber and distribution to any facility, vectoring, CAF and ISP.
