The five companies that submitted bids are Aetha Consulting Limited, Detecon Consulting FZ-LLC, Frontier Economics Limited, KomKonsult (Private) Limited, and National Economic Research Associates Inc.
The PTA will now evaluate the technical bids and solicit financial bids from the shortlisted companies. After evaluating both technical and financial bids, the PTA will select a consultant firm to prepare a report on the launch of 5G services in Pakistan.
The report will be prepared in consultation with stakeholders and will serve as the basis for the launch of 5G in the country. The PTA aims to launch 5G services in Pakistan by April 2025, as targeted by the Government of Pakistan. The launch of 5G is expected to bring numerous benefits to the country, including faster data speeds, improved connectivity, and increased economic opportunities.
