EuroTeleSites is pleased to announce its cooperation with Sitetracker: a leading provider of operations management software in the telecommunications industry. With the introduction of Sitetracker, planned for early 2025, EuroTeleSites will manage the asset management of its more than 13,500 transmission towers uniformly from Bodensee to the Black Sea with one of the most modern software solutions. This will make it possible to respond more quickly to customer requests and improve efficiency, transparency and security in the data management of the tower infrastructure.
The benefits in detail:
Centralized data management: With Sitetracker, all relevant data is bundled centrally. This provides a uniform and easily accessible basis. For example, location information, technical specifications and maintenance histories can be called up at a glance, which speeds up planning and decision-making processes.
Improved project coordination: The software offers functions for the efficient coordination of projects, be it the construction of new mobile radio towers or maintenance. This allows a project manager to monitor the progress of a tower construction in real time, minimizing delays and ensuring timely completion.
Increased transparency and traceability: Sitetracker enables transparent tracking of all activities and changes to the mobile radio towers. For example, maintenance teams can document their assignments and upload photos of the work carried out, making the quality of the maintenance work traceable and enabling a quick response to any problems if necessary.
Efficient resource management: By using the software, the use of resources such as personnel and materials can be optimized to reduce operating costs. An illustrative example is the assignment of technicians to specific maintenance tasks based on their availability and qualifications, thus avoiding unnecessary journeys.
Advanced reporting and analytics: Sitetracker's comprehensive analytics and reporting capabilities provide in-depth insights into cell tower performance metrics. This allows trends and patterns to be identified that indicate recurring faults, for example, so that more preventative measures can be taken in the future.
“The approximately 400,000 mobile radio masts of all telcos and TowerCos throughout Europe form the infrastructural backbone of an increasingly digital, mobile society. As a system operator, this requires close coordination with customers, authorities, landlords and suppliers: from site selection to construction and maintenance. Sitetracker helps us synchronize all the necessary information across countries and in real time and use it more effectively," comments Lars Mosdorf, CFO of EuroTeleSites and responsible for IT, on the potential of the software changeover. "With the introduction of Sitetracker, we are creating state-of-the-art support for our team and the basis for big data analytics, machine learning and, in a later step, digital twins," says Mosdorf, delighted with the forward-looking investment.
With the spin-off and the IPO as an independent company in September 2023, EuroTeleSites has begun to position itself as an innovative TowerCo and the cooperation with Sitetracker follows the Group strategy of harmonizing and digitizing internal and external processes in order to optimize costs and exploit synergies.
"With the help of Sitetracker software, we will be able to develop our radio towers faster according to customer requirements, expand them more efficiently with more closely networked suppliers and maintain them more effectively," says René Schiefer, Head of Technology at EuroTeleSites. "All our sites are now tracked and managed with a single, easy-to-use tool. The tedious task of gaining an overview of sites and systems is no longer necessary and problems are identified more quickly as our employees are equipped with flexible workflows."
"In order to reap the benefits of digital transformation, which include significant cost and time savings, companies must re-imagine old processes and use data to improve them,” said Giuseppe Incitti, CEO of Sitetracker. “Sitetracker gives telcos and TowerCos the tools to make this shift simply and effectively, so they can move forward with clear, precise, real-time information and focus on serving their customers with maximal efficiency. We look forward to a continued positive relationship with EuroTeleSites”.
