FAQ
Questions we hear most
Can you handle everything, or only the application?
Everything: assessment, application, equipment certification, spectrum assignments, training, audits and renewals. Most clients start with one service and keep us on for the renewal calendar.
Do you guarantee approval?
No consultancy can. Licensing decisions sit with MCMC and the Minister. What we do is make sure the application is complete, accurate and well supported, and keep it moving.
What does it cost?
Fees depend on the licence type and scope of work. Regulatory fees payable to MCMC or the certifying agency are separate and set by them. We quote before any work starts.
