Digital Twin for Towers: A Step-by-Step Implementation Playbook

The Future of Tower Management

Telecom infrastructure is becoming more complex—multiple tenants, rapid rollouts, and pressure to maximise revenue from every site. A Digital Twin bridges this complexity by creating a dynamic, data-driven replica of every tower and its commercial relationships.

At Tarantula, we see the digital twin as the next leap in telecom site management, connecting physical assets, leases, and operations within a single intelligent platform.

Why It Matters

  • End-to-End Visibility: Combine physical, commercial, and operational data for every site.
  • Faster Decisions: Model scenarios, forecast capacity, and predict maintenance.
  • Reduced Costs: Identify inefficiencies, eliminate lease leakage, and optimise utilisation.
  • Higher ROI: Maximise tenancy and asset value with data-driven insights.

Implementation Playbook

1. Define Objectives

Start with clear goals—cost reduction, improved tenancy, faster rollout—and identify the pilot region or site cluster.

2. Build the Data Foundation

Consolidate physical and commercial data (tower specs, leases, tenants, assets). Tarantula’s modules for site inventory, lease, and billing ensure a single source of truth.

3. Create the Digital Twin

Configure digital replicas for pilot sites. Visualise each tower’s assets, link contracts and processes, and integrate IoT data if available.

4. Scale and Automate

Roll out across the portfolio. Use analytics to simulate what-if scenarios, forecast revenues, and drive predictive maintenance.

5. Govern and Optimise

Maintain data quality, define ownership, and measure KPIs. Ensure the twin becomes part of your everyday operations.
