Built for the attacher, not the utility

Never miss an FCC shot-clock deadline
— or eat a make-ready overage — again.

PoleDocket tracks every pole-attachment application, deadline, and dollar across every utility you work with — so you catch the 45-day survey window before it closes, not after, and catch a make-ready bill running over budget before it's too late to push back.

the FCC shot-clock you're already on

Built for the attacher, not the utility.

Most pole-attachment software on the market is built for the utility's side of the desk — permitting and engineering tools the pole owner runs, with an attacher-facing view bolted on at best. You get to see a slice of their data; you still don't have your own pipeline.

PoleDocket is the opposite: it's your cockpit. Every utility you attach to — FCC-regulated, co-op, or municipal — lives in one place you own, with deadlines and costs tracked your way, not filtered through the pole owner's portal.

How it works

From application to attached, without the spreadsheet.

Four things happen automatically the moment you log an application — no manual date math, no separate cost tracker.

01

Log every application, per utility

Track FCC, co-op, and municipal pole-attachment applications for every utility you deal with — one pipeline instead of a dozen spreadsheets and inboxes.

02

We run the shot clock for you

The moment an application is submitted, PoleDocket computes every FCC deadline — completeness review, survey, estimate, make-ready — and reminds you before each one closes.

03

Catch overruns before they close out

Log make-ready estimates and invoices per pole. See the variance the moment a bill comes in over budget — not once the project's already done.

04

Report to lenders, grants, your team

Generate status, cost-variance, and deadline-compliance reports in one click — including the audit trail BEAD subgrantees now need for federal reporting.

What you actually see

Every pole, every deadline, one map.

A quick look at the screens you'll spend your day in.

See every pole's status at a glance

Import poles from CSV or KMZ and watch them color-code by status — submitted, in survey, make-ready, attached, at-risk, denied — on a live Google Map, filterable by application or utility.

  • CSV and KMZ import with row-level error reporting
  • Six-color status legend, matched to your pipeline stage
  • KMZ export for field crews and engineering handoff

Drag an application forward, deadlines follow

Move an application across the Kanban board and PoleDocket closes out the old deadline and opens the next one automatically — completeness review through attached, with self-help eligibility flagged the moment a utility misses its window.

  • Eight-stage board matching the FCC §1.1411 pipeline
  • Self-help eligibility badge when a utility misses survey or make-ready
  • Every move fires the same audited status-change path as the API

Estimate vs. invoice, per pole, in real dollars

Log the utility's itemized make-ready estimate, then log invoices as they arrive. PoleDocket shows the variance instantly — over-budget rows in red — instead of you finding out at project close-out.

  • Line-item categories: engineering survey, transfer, anchor/guy, replacement, restoration
  • Multiple invoices reconciled against a single estimate
  • "$ Make-Ready Committed" dashboard KPI across your whole pipeline
