A physical site audit is one of the best ways to ensure that your wireless tenants are complying with the terms of your agreements. Carriers make liberal interpretations or are simply not aware of limitations that may be included on their premises, equipment, number of antennas, cables contained within their agreements. Some do not follow the necessary notices required by many agreements and many site owners are not aware of significant modifications made to their facilities which impact their structures and revenue potential. Valuable space maybe occupied for which a site owner should be collecting additional revenues. Site audits are becoming critical as facilities become overcrowded and more valuable as zoning restrictions increase driving the cost of new sites up. Physical site audits can be done in conjunction with the review of tenant documentation to ensure that installations are within compliance of agreements. Site audits can determine if additional work has compromised structural integrity of structures and reduced any future potential installations therefor negatively impacting the sites revenue potential.
ACC will also perform site audits for carriers looking to accurately determine that they are in compliance with their agreements or to assist in the acquisition of facilities by confirming that what is physically on the site matches with existing agreements.
Site audits can also help ensure site owners that their installations comply with local ordinances, building codes, power audits, interconnect and other facilities along with the potential for any environmental issues that can be caused by on-site generators, storage of fuel or batteries.
A site audit is critical when purchasing facilities to ensure that the site is incompliance with all agreements, representations and local codes or ordinances.
