IT and telecommunications solution provider, Subah Infosolutions Ghana Limited, has signed a five-year agreement with the Guinean government to provide traffic monitoring services for revenue verification in that country.

Under the agreement, Subah is required to fix its devices to the switching and billing loads of the telecom companies to monitor revenue inflow and quality service delivery.

But in Ghana, the Electronic and Communication Act, limits Subah to just the monitoring of billing loads of the companies.

These were disclosed in an interaction session between officials of Subah and Members of the Parliamentary Select Committee on Communications on Wednesday in Accra.

Subah’s agreement with Guinea was signed on November 20, 2015, officials revealed.

Subah’s Revenue Assurance and Verification Service help revenue mobilization institutions to ensure that all revenue generated by organizations are correctly billed or accounted for.

With five competing mobile networks in Guinea, its telecommunications sector has shown triple-digit growth rates for three years in a row following the entry of two world-class international operators, MTN and Orange.

The other competitors are Intercel, Cellcom and Lagui, the mobile unit of the national fixed-line operator, Sotelgui.

Subah says with the significant amount of success and experience in Ghana over the years, it plans to extend its operations to countries such as Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Gambia, Sierra Leone and a host of others.

“We intend to use our testimony in Ghana to expand our frontiers. It is a fact that our huge investment in Ghana has paid off and we think that the company can do more by extending our operations to other African countries”, said Redeemer Kwame, General Manager of Business Development and Projects of Subah.

Answering questions from the MPs, General Manager of Subah, Birendra Sasmal, said his outfit is committed to the fight against sim-box fraud in the country.

He said the company had put in place systems that could easily detect the crime and bring perpetrators to book, disclosing that “Subah saves Ghana at least $70 million annually” by combating the crime.

Against that backdrop, Mr Sasmal urged the Ghanaian government and the public to trust that Subah would continue to render the best of services at all times.

He said the company was determined to support young graduates and other youths to develop their potentials in IT.

Subah Infosolutions Ghana Limited in 2010 was contracted by the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) to provide telecom traffic monitoring services for revenue verification, specifically to collect “Talk Tax” pursuant to the Electronic and Communication Act.
