How we do Telecoms Management

We’re a specialist telecoms project management consultancy with extensive experience working on telecoms project management and digital programmes. We combine our expertise to save you time and resources (not to mention a few headaches!).

Our track record of dealing with both local authorities and industry in London and across the UK, makes us uniquely placed to deliver timely and successful telecoms projects for you and your community.

Full fibre broadband

As part of the government’s Levelling Up plan, a target has been set for 85% of UK premises to have full fibre broadband by 2025 and 99% by 2030.

We help deliver full fibre broadband rollout for local authorities as part of a cost-neutral programme. We work on behalf of councils and housing associations with resources funded by the broadband providers.

We’ve been working with Jennie’s team for several years and they provide clients with project management across a number of local authority portfolios. They run the project on the client’s behalf, removing a lot of the resource and hassle factor for the client and this helps to reduce delays, reduce complaints and keep the schedule on track.

Jennie’s team are working closely with both Kingston and Sutton local authorities to project manage the fibre programme – a key component of our digital strategy. They manage the internet service providers on our behalf and are helping to ensure we receive the social value and digital benefits that the wayleaves provide. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the team to other landlords who need support in bringing full fibre connectivity to their organisation and residents.

What we do

From finding broadband providers to signing off on site, we programme manage every stage of your fibre broadband rollout.

Sourcing ISPs

Thanks to our network of local authorities and broadband providers we can support you to identify suitable ISPs. We take you through evaluation and negotiation phases then onboard your chosen provider/s.

Wayleave design and development

There’s a lot to consider when putting together a wayleave, including the social value commitments you want included. We create a fit-for-purpose wayleave package to bring maximum benefit to your stakeholders.

Project management

We set up a Telecoms project management programme framework for delivery and agree processes. We manage all stages of the installation work, co-ordinating with relevant teams, monitoring compliance, making regular site visits and providing weekly progress reports.

Stakeholder engagement

We create a stakeholder engagement plan and carry out stakeholder mapping to ensure consistent messaging and communication. This is regularly reviewed as the project progresses.

Community communication

We act as the first point of contact for residents and council members, holding virtual and face-to-face meetings. It takes the burden away from you. And means everyone in your community is heard.

What can you bring to your community?

Digital connectivity

Digital connectivity is now considered a major utility. The government wants – and communities expect – fast, efficient broadband and mobile phone coverage throughout the UK. And the pressure is on for local authorities to deliver it.

We’re here to take that pressure off.
