Network Audits

 

 

Hyde-pyramid-ball

Assessing your network’s regulatory status so you can manage your risk and plan ahead more powerfully.

Large organizations typically find it difficult to determine their precise regulatory situation. Even knowing reliably whether they have all the proper authorizations in their countries of operation can be challenging. Lack of precise, reliable regulatory information almost always results in unnecessary exposure to penalties or confiscation of equipment for noncompliance—and missed opportunities to save on regulatory, logistical and commercial costs.

Hyde & Associates can audit your network to determine whether any compliance action is required, ensuring that you are compliant and helping you target savings.

Hyde & Associates is expert on the full range of regulatory, business and humanitarian issues in telecommunications for both providers and users of telecommunication services. This includes issues related to fixed and mobile wireless, wireline, satellite, infrastructure, fibre-optic systems, broadband, internet service providers (ISPs), data transmission, type approval and more.

If you are interested in our services or have specific project questions, please contact us.

We:

  • Assist in drafting and negotiating contracts for the purchase, lease or sale of services and equipment
  • Advise on regulations governing transactions
  • Analyze local laws for telecommunications market access, opportunities and restrictions
