5G Site Marketing & Management

WAICU has selected Vertical Bridge to assist WAICU member institutions in leasing campus rooftops and other structures to telecom carriers for placement of 5G antennae. Vertical Bridge is the largest private wireless infrastructure company in the U.S. and has master agreements with all the major telecom carriers. The company maintains a database of marketable rooftops and has a sales team dedicated to leasing third-party owned assets like yours. As carriers build out their 5G networks, properties that are part of this program are much more likely to be chosen for antennae locations.

This is a revenue-generating opportunity with a great deal of third-party expertise and support built in – reducing your administrative burden. Vertical Bridge markets the locations you identify. Campus leaders retain decision-making control throughout the process, from selecting which rooftops are in the database to final approval rights on antennae placement and aesthetic elements. Once all parties agree on an antenna location, Vertical Bridge is responsible for all aspects of project management and lease administration on the owner’s behalf.

Energy Consulting

Have you ever considered whether there’s a more empowering and cost-effective way to purchase natural gas for your campus facilities?  WAICU’s newest cost-saving program introduces a company ready to educate and guide you through the entire process.

WAICU has partnered with Blue Edge Energy (BEE) to launch the WAICU Energy Consulting program. This program is designed to help member institutions simplify and manage energy expenses and implement a best practice strategy for natural gas purchasing, aimed at achieving significant cost savings.

What is Blue Edge Energy’s proven gas procurement consulting process?

  • Educate: The process begins with comprehensive education sessions from BEE, tailored to inform members about their natural gas purchasing options. Sharing knowledge and expertise is crucial as the initial step in this journey.
  • Compete & Negotiate: The BEE team customizes a natural gas purchasing strategy to align with the institution’s specific budget goals and overall requirements. BEE facilitates connections with multiple gas suppliers through a structured Request for Proposal (RFP) process, negotiating favorable contract terms and conditions on behalf of members.
  • Monitor & Manage: BEE acts as a supportive co-pilot, continuously monitoring costs and usage. They provide valuable market insights to optimize gas procurement strategies, offering regular updates and guidance on when to consider hedging gas purchases.
