SCOUT US and Canada Serviceability Tool
Any delay can be the difference between landing the deal and losing it. SCOUT gives you one tool to check availability for over 60 Providers across the US and Canada with Provider API integration for, ensuring the same level of detail as if you went directly to a Provider tool, only across multiple Providers. Broadband (cable, DSL, Fios, Fiber/Dedicated fiber, etc.), LEC, wireless, fixed-wireless, aggregators, and resellers. This lets you as a Partner pull the latest pricing, promotions, add-ons (phone lines, televisions, routers, static IPs, etc.), and service information that can reduce the price for your customer or be an additional incentive – and generate dynamic fully accurate contracts or self-branded proposals. Imagine, a process that used to take hours, days, or even a week, can now be generated immediately into a client-ready proposal that includes all current promotions. You can know what’s available, before anyone else, with SCOUT.
Here's How SCOUT Works – Single Address

Pick a Provider and click through the exhaustive package options and promotions, ensuring you know exactly what you can offer your customers.
Select and Configure Your Preferred Pricing

Create Contracts & Self-Branded Proposals
Make client-ready accurate contracts (Comcast Business, Cox Business, Lumen, and Spectrum) and proposals – print, share digitally, or show your client what’s on your screen! Need more options? Choose another Provider and repeat.
Bulk Lookup: More Than One Address? Search Up to 500 at Once!
Enter American and Canadian addresses to a .CSV spreadsheet (template available in the Sandler Portal) and upload to SCOUT. Once completed, the tool will deliver a spreadsheet with the same level of detail as an individual address, without having to reach out to a Provider and wait days, weeks, or months to be processed. Addresses are standardized with all the information you need to move forward with your project, while staying ahead of the competition.
