The National Communications Authority (NCA) has concluded the qualification stage of its spectrum licence Request for Applications for the 700 MHz, 2.3 GHz, and 3 GHz bands. Out of four applications received, three companies – MTN Ghana, Telecel Ghana, and Goal Telecommunications Ltd – have been cleared to proceed to the next stage.
Infrava Ltd was disqualified from the process. The qualification involved two assessments: the Eligibility Review and the Technical Qualification Assessment. The NCA has informed all applicants of their decisions, as per the Request for Applications guidelines. With the qualification stage complete, the three successful applicants will advance to Stage 3 of the spectrum selection process.
The remaining phase will involve ranking their Best Price Offers, after which the successful applicants will be notified of the date, time, and venue for the next stage. The 700 MHz, 2.3 GHz, and 3 GHz bands are crucial to Ghana's telecommunications infrastructure and are being offered through the NCA's competitive licensing process.
