Network Audits and Inventories
Telecom Audits are the most powerful tool available to pole owners to guarantee, through an impartial method, the accountability of their 3rd party attachers. Joint Use Audits and Inventories are pass-through investments tailored to deliver two very specific results:
Validation of yearly rental billing by providing an accurate count of foreign attachments on your system.
- Mitigation of risk by providing the exact location of any NESC violations found.
Turnkey telecom audit and inventory solutions deliver accurate results by approaching each audit
