Site Audits and Due Diligence for Telecommunication Infrastructure: Safeguarding Property Value and Compliance
Broadband and mobile service providers are under an ever-increasing demand to improve the quality and reliability of their services, which has had a significant impact on the rapid growth in these areas. Unfortunately, property owners with commercial buildings have seen telecommunication infrastructure as one of their main ways of providing telecommunication services, whether it be through the installation of rooftop antennas, to the installation of fibre optic cables and other forms of mobile base stations and wireless systems. Although the popularity of the telecommunications industry has continued to rise, telecommunication installation has also created a multitude of legal, operational and financial tools that must be considered by commercial building owners.
The Telecommunication Code provides the Right to Install Digital Telecommunications Infrastructure
The main purpose of the UK Telecommunication Code is to allow increased access to high-speed broadband and mobile telecommunications services for the UK public, via the creation of improved digital connectivity by allowing telecommunications operators to install, maintain and adapt digital telecommunications infrastructure of private property. As broadband and mobile network service providers continue to improve their services, an increasing number of estate properties have begun experiencing telecommunication-related issues. Arc Partners is a trusted partners of operators when it comes to install telecommunications infrastructure on your property. Let’s understand why Site Audits and due diligence is important.
Supporting Property Transactions Through Due Diligence
In auditing, telecom infrastructure gets property valuation, selling, and future development as a major factor that can make or break the deal. Due diligence developed the proper process for buyers to be sure of what they will be getting—the total package, including possible limitations, rights, or liabilities that come with the telecom units’ installations. On the other hand, sellers get the advantage of being open to the market, as dealing with the pending issues may delay transactions or even cause price negotiations.
Maneuvering and Handling Risks from the Code
The primary aim of conducting site audits is to uncover the risks associated with the Telecommunication Code. These risks might include lack of documentation for the equipment, obsolete contracts, installations that do not meet the requirements of the Code, or vague access rights.Such problems can limit the possibilities of redevelopment, make the negotiations for leasing more difficult, or result in the owners being subjected to enforcement action. An organized audit is the means through which these risks are quantified and managed in a very efficient manner.
A Comprehensive and Structured Audit Process
Good site audits are based on a solid and systematic approach. Usually, this involves doing physical inspections, reviewing documents, and making detailed reports. All telecommunication installations will be analyzed, starting from the fixed-line fibre optic network to the antennas on the roof and the mobile base stations. The property owners who deal with the problems at an early stage are able to reduce the chances of having disputes, avoid expensive remediation, and they will keep control over the way their properties are used.
