According to the ACMA, "Zamro specialises in mobile phone base station and other telecommunications installation projects for a number of telecommunications carriers, and has previously conducted benchmarking surveys similar to that required by ACMA." Zamro's description of itself is, however somewhat different. It says: " Zamro is a company that focuses on providing strategic management and marketing consultancy, executive search and network build operate and maintenance services to the Information Communication Technologies (ICT) industry. Our company is comprised of three major business units including strategic management consultancy (SMC), people solutions (PES) and telecommunications systems design & integration (TSI)." The ACMA says it concluded that the Zamro procedure best met the needs of the survey and that "Zamro employs suitably qualified technical staff and has appropriate commercially available test equipment designed for measuring mobile phone system coverage and other parameters." The benchmarking survey measurements will be made while driving along a predetermined route set by ACMA. The Zamro survey team will be accompanied by an ACMA engineer, who will observe and report internally on the survey procedure as it progresses. ACMA engineers will analyse the results for both networks. The survey of Next G's coverage will not take place until Telstra informs the ACMA that the network rollout is sufficiently complete. ACMA says it expects this to occur towards the end of 2007. The ACMA will report the results of its comparison to the Minister who will then decide if Telstra can close down its CDMA network.{moscomment} |
