Construction
Connectivity that moves when the site does
Sites are temporary, they change every few months, and none of them have a comms room. The setup has to be quick to stand up and quick to take down.
What usually goes wrong
A new site should not mean a new procurement exercise
Most connectivity is sold on the assumption that a building stays put for years. Construction does not work that way. A site office might be live for eight months and then be gone, and the paperwork for a fixed line can outlast the job.
Meanwhile the phones are the operation. Drawings, variations, deliveries and safety documents all move through them, and a device left in a cab or dropped off scaffolding is a data problem as well as a hardware one.
Sites move and the connectivity has to move with them. Temporary links, lines per project, devices managed remotely.
How we help
What we actually do about it
Site connectivity that stands up fast
4G and 5G routers for site offices and cabins, live in days rather than months, and removed again when the job finishes.
Lines that follow the project
Added when a project starts, removed when it ends, and billed so you can recharge them to the right job rather than to a single pot.
Devices you can wipe from the office
Company phones and tablets managed centrally, so a lost device is a phone call rather than an incident.
What you get
The things that matter in construction
- Temporary site connectivity and 4G/5G routers
- Lines added and removed per project
- Devices managed and wiped remotely
- Cost centre reporting by site or contract
- Handsets specified for a working site
- Coverage checked before a site office goes in
Common questions
What people in construction ask us
How quickly can a site office get a connection?
A 4G or 5G router is the fast route and is usually the right answer for a temporary site. We will scope it with you rather than quote a timescale blind.
Can we bill connectivity back to individual projects?
Yes. Lines can be grouped by site or contract so the cost lands in the right place without anyone unpicking a bill by hand.
What happens to the kit when a site closes?
It comes back and gets redeployed. Lines can be paused rather than cancelled where the next project is not far off.

Tell us how your operation runs
We will look at what you have, tell you what we would change, and put it in writing. No obligation either way.
