What TLP does

TLP (legally Tele Performance Telecomunicacoes Ltda) is a Brazilian infrastructure services company founded on August 6, 1997 by Island Faria (CEO) and Antonielder Mota (CFO), headquartered in São Paulo with 30+ branches and 3,650+ professionals serving 2,800+ cities nationwide. The company operates through three service divisions: Telecom (fiber optic, metallic, HFC, OPGW, CATV networks; transmission systems including SDH, Metroethernet, GPON, DWDM; radio frequency and small cell deployment; structured cabling and CCTV), Energy (urban and rural distribution network construction and maintenance, solar/photovoltaic installations, energy efficiency projects, smart meter deployment), and Electromobility (turn-key EV charging station consulting, design, infrastructure, deployment, training, operation, and maintenance for B2C, B2B, and B2G environments). Across all three divisions, TLP delivers end-to-end project lifecycles — consulting, design, deployment, operation, and maintenance — with a stated focus on quality control (ranked top-3 in quality metrics among Brazilian telecom service providers) and more than 72,000 km of network maintained to date.

TLP's revenue model is professional services-based with quote-based, customized enterprise pricing and no public rate cards; the company does not sell standardized products through retail or e-commerce channels. Its go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting telecom operators (TIM, Vivo, Algar, Telebras, Telxius, Huawei), energy utilities (CEMIG, EDP, ENEL, ENEL X), automotive OEMs and industrial players (BMW, BYD, JAC Motors, WEG), and government entities (Governo de Minas Gerais, FUNDEP). The firm is privately held and closely controlled by its two founders, with no external institutional or PE/VC investors, no public listing, and no disclosed subsidiaries or M&A history. Scale metrics include 28+ years of operation, 100+ clients served, 100+ EV charging stations installed, and a 7-time Deloitte Exame recognition (2009, 2013-2015, 2017-2019) including 19th among Brazil's fastest-growing SMEs in 2018-2019.
