For over a century, Batterman has been dedicated to helping clients complete their projects smoothly, accurately, and efficiently. Today, we bring that same commitment, precision, and problem-solving to the rapidly changing telecommunications industry.
From broadband expansion to fiber‑optic system upgrades, our team provides full‑service communications design, permitting, surveying, and engineering support across Wisconsin and northern Illinois. We understand the technical demands of modern networks and the regulatory complexities that can slow projects down. Our job is to keep your project moving forward.
Services Offered
Comprehensive design of fiber and broadband systems that meet agency, industry, and funding‑program standards.
Accurate field data using advanced surveying tools, GPS, and mobile collection platforms.
High‑precision mapping, point clouds, and 3D models for planning, routing, and conflict identification.
Detailed, accurate documentation to support construction verification and long‑term system management.
Clear, reliable staking and on‑site support to keep crews productive and minimize downtime.
Permitting + Regulatory Expertise
Permitting can be one of the most time‑consuming and complex aspects of a telecommunications project, especially when multiple municipalities, utilities, and state agencies are involved. We take that burden off your team.
Our strong relationships with local, county, and state permitting authorities allow us to secure required approvals quickly and with minimal friction.
Our permitting services include:
- Converting KMZ/KML files into complete, submittable work plans
- Preparing all permit application materials
- Coordinating with municipal, county, and state agencies
- Managing reviews, revisions, and approvals
- Permitting all projects for underground installation as a standard contingency
- Maintaining communication with all stakeholders to keep timelines on track
Since 2020, we’ve completed over 100 projects, securing permits across more than a dozen counties.
Supporting Grant‑Funded Projects
Broadband expansion programs open the door to transformative infrastructure improvements, but they also come with strict requirements and demanding schedules.
We have extensive experience supporting grant‑funded telecom deployments, including BEAD and RDOF awards, by:
- Translating high‑level program routes into fully engineered work plans
- Meeting the unique permitting and engineering standards of each agency involved
- Accelerating timelines to help clients meet funding deadlines
- Providing scalable engineering and permitting capacity during peak workloads
Batterman is here to support your communications design and permitting needs from concept through construction.
