Step 1 - First Contact & Expression of Interest

Everything starts with a conversation. DCS may reach out to you based on market research or through a roaming platform, or you can approach us directly. The goal at this stage is simple: establish mutual interest and get a basic picture of your network. Once there's mutual interest, DCS assesses the potential value of your network for our EV driver base. This helps define the right scope of partnership and the best connection approach. The evaluation looks at both quantitative factors (size, markets, connector mix) and qualitative ones (quality, pricing competitiveness, technical readiness and roaming protocol capabilities).

  • How does first contact typically happen?
  • What information should I have ready to share?
  • Will I need to sign an NDA?
  • What does DCS look at when assessing my network?
  • How long does this step take?
  • I already have an offer on one of the roaming platforms? Should I go through this step?
