Preconnect® is fully funded by Telcom
With Preconnect®, there is absolutely no cost to the building owner or management company in terms of the upfront installation or ongoing management. The installation and upgrade are fully funded by Telcom, and our revenue comes from offering our best in class connectivity services to your tenants.
Once your building has been upgraded, Preconnect® unlocks a variety of valuable add-on products and services, which are available to be bolted on at anytime.
Remove wayleave headaches
Move-in dates shouldn’t be dictated by the date an occupier’s connectivity goes live and the biggest cause for delay is usually down to the internet service provider’s biased wayleave agreement.
That’s why our Preconnect® solution is designed around a master wayleave agreement, which covers the entire foundational Preconnect® infrastructure platform, along with the flexibility needed to append tenants as and when they have an agreement. The end result is that barriers to occupancy are removed, and your tenants get connected seamlessly, whilst leaving you with less paperwork to worry about.
Attracts and retains occupiers
Connectivity is considered the third most important factor when searching for office space, behind only cost and location. Similar to water, gas, and electricity, connectivity is now considered to be the fourth utility.
However, unlike other utilities occupiers have traditionally been expected to bring their connectivity piping with them when taking space in a commercial building. Preconnect® changes that by transforming a building’s connectivity provision into a true utility, with infrastructure installed throughout and bandwidth available on tap.
Boosts connectivity ratings
Our Connected Buildings team are WiredScore accredited professionals with a deep understanding of WiredScore’s digital connectivity standards.
As a leader in connectivity and technology, Preconnect® targets a Platinum Wiredscore but guarantees a minimum connectivity rating of Gold. Should your building not achieve Gold, we commit to undertake the work required to improve the certification level free of charge. That’s our Preconnect® guarantee.
