Temporary Site Management

Clarke Telecom is the UK's largest provider of temporary solutions to the mobile communications industry, and manages a fleet of Mobicells, Speed Sites and other temporary site equipment. Although all five mobile operators have mature networks providing coverage to more than 99% of the population, there are still occasions when a temporary site is needed. We currently manage three of the UK network operators’ mobile fleets.

We provide a fully managed service for the deployment, recovery, storage and maintenance of temporary sites. Temporary coverage is provided for special events using a fleet of mobile BTSs to ensure that revenue generation is maximised and to support marketing and other prestigious events where quality of service is key. We provide a 24/7 support for all deployed sites and, if required for key events, 24hr on-site engineers to monitor the performance of the services being provided including voice, text, MMS and video.

Temporary solutions are also provided to both facilitate early coverage solutions and to provide contingent cover for churning sites. We undertake complete special event planning and management, including neighbouring cell enhancements as well as temporary site deployments.

Whilst not deployed, our customers’ equipment can be stored in our secure facilities. We also provide regular mechanical and electrical servicing of equipment whether in storage or in situ when deployed for any length of time as part of the fully managed service.
