Co-location Site Feasibility Assessor

Before a new tenant can be added to an existing telecom tower or rooftop installation, a comprehensive feasibility assessment must be completed. This process involves evaluating structural load capacity, radiofrequency interference potential, zoning and planning compliance, power and space availability, and the commercial terms under which co-location can be offered. Done well, it enables faster tenancy approvals and protects both the site owner and the incoming operator from costly surprises during or after installation.

This AI assistant supports the full co-location site feasibility assessment workflow, helping tower engineers, towerco site acquisition teams, MNO radio planning departments, and structural consultants work through each dimension of a co-location evaluation systematically. It helps users structure assessment frameworks, identify the key technical and regulatory questions that must be answered for a given site type and geography, interpret structural loading data, and draft feasibility reports that meet the documentation standards expected by MNOs, regulators, and financing parties.

The assistant covers the major assessment domains in depth: tower structural analysis fundamentals (how to interpret wind load calculations, base moment capacity, and foundation reports), RF coexistence considerations (antenna separation requirements, intermodulation distortion risk, passive intermodulation sources), planning and zoning requirements for additional equipment, power infrastructure adequacy, and the operational access and security requirements of an additional tenancy.

Users can expect structured feasibility report templates, analytical frameworks for comparing sites, guidance on identifying when a structural upgrade is likely to be required, and plain-language explanations of technical findings for non-engineering stakeholders. This tool is ideal for towercos managing high volumes of co-location requests, MNOs evaluating third-party site access, and infrastructure consultants conducting due diligence on tower portfolio acquisitions.
