Acquiring towers is only phase one for emerging market towercos. In order to secure the confidence of operators, and thus maximise tenancy ratios, towercos must prove they can provide a full service, often inclusive of power, while consistently adhering to challenging Service Level Agreements that might call for 99.5%+ uptime. TowerXchange spoke to David Meganck, COO at Acsys, market leaders in provision of mechatronic locks and associated time attendance monitoring. Acsys equipment is deployed on over 50,000 sites globally, giving them a unique insight into the front lines of tower management and maintenance where the battle to adhere to SLAs is won and lost.
