History

In 1998 we started to automatise the telecommunications processes in regulation management by using process-oriented software solutions. The numerous regulatory and licensing requirements are challenges for mobile network operators, since these processes often collide with the technically and economically driven radio planning processes. Our target is to develop a product with which our customers can perform frequency coordination and allocation for administration (TKG §55) silently and as automatically as possible in their operational planning processes. We have successfully achieved this with PreHCM Mobile, which has been standardizing the regulatory processes ever since.

In the past few years, the range of products has been expanded to include further operational regulation processes of the mobile network operators. This includes the electronic directional radio registration (PreHCM Microwave) and the electromagnetic compatibility of locations (PreHCM EMF). The software solutions of PreHCM are used by the public mobile network operators to ensure the quality of their location and frequency regulatory registrations. Our project planning methods and technologies continue to develop consistently, but the basic principle of our process solutions remain same: to integrate the regulatory requirements for our customers, which are sometimes complex, into their planning processes as efficiently and as smoothly as possible.

Initially developed by Mentopolis CSC GmbH as a product suite, in 2013 the PreHCM product line was spun off into an independent company as PreHCM Services GmbH.

PreHCM Services GmbH has been a subsidiary of DFMG Deutsche Funkturm GmbH since 2018.
