1. A method for providing telecommunications services in a telecommunications network, the method comprising:
obtaining a plurality of customer parameters for a customer population associated with the telecommunications network;
obtaining a plurality of site parameters for sites associated with the customer population of the telecommunications network, wherein the plurality of site parameters correspond to characteristics of the sites associated with the customer population of the telecommunications network, the sites including proposed sites;
generating a site key having at least one of a subset of the plurality of customer parameters or a subset of the plurality of site parameters, the site key providing a modeling input for a segment of the customer population associated with the telecommunication services;
generating a simulation set for the site key, the simulation set including a plurality of simulations for the site key, each of the plurality of simulations having a set of customer events for a telecommunications build type, the set of customer events generated by simulating a customer set for the site key over time through a discrete event simulation; and
storing the simulation set in at least one database, each of the plurality of simulations in the simulation set selectable to generate a telecommunications build plan for providing the telecommunications services to a telecommunications buildable area of the telecommunications network.
