Real-Time Control for Tower Operations

Running telecom tower services means managing site surveys, climbs, antenna/line swaps, new sector builds, small cell adds, grounding, structural inspections, lighting maintenance, and outage response — often across remote sites, strict safety protocols, and changing priorities. Teams need live visibility of who’s available, where each crew is, what parts and permits are on hand, and where work is slipping. That’s why Shifton delivers a field service platform built for Telecom Tower Services — clear statuses, accurate assignments, and clean handoffs between dispatch, NOC/field ops, and rigging crews. This tower-ready Field Service solution routes work orders, assigns the right crew (certs/clearances) to the right site, and tracks progress and time on-site in real time. Whether you’re performing a mount install, swapping RRUs/antennas, tensioning lines, or doing lighting repairs, Shifton keeps tasks organized, auditable, and off noisy chat threads.

With Shifton, providers cut repeat climbs, protect crew safety with documented steps, and deliver photo-backed proof of work. You get operational control across regions, tighter compliance, and a better client experience.
