According to the agreement, the company has to complete the installation of the telecom monitoring system within 180 days of signing the agreement.
The cabinet committee on public procurement approved the purchase of the telecom monitoring system at a cost of Tk 77.65 crore, said a press release.
Once the system is implemented, the process of collecting and reporting information from mobile operators will be automated. At the same time, it will be possible to observe all the necessary information in real time. This will ensure regular and reliable access to voice and data traffic, network usage and quality information as well as BTRC's revenue, the release also said.
