Make Ready Design Process
Make-ready design is the process of preparing a utility pole to receive a new fiber attachment. This process must be completed when a service provider is expanding fiber offerings to a new geographical area, but is more complicated and takes more time than many companies realize. What does make-ready design entail, and how does it can affect DQE customers? TechServ offers a turnkey solution to all of your make-ready design needs. TechServ has the expertise to help negotiate pole licensing agreements and new make-ready designs with governing entities. In most communities, utility poles are owned by the local government, such as an electric company or a telephone company, and sometimes a messy combination of entities. Cooperation with the owner of the poles is necessary for DQE or any other service providers to add anything new to any pole structure, such as fiber-optic cable.
