Subah Infosolutions has broken into other African countries with its ICT solutions after a recent deal with Guinea.
The Information and Telecommunications Company (ICT) is expected to start operations in the West African country by the end of January.
The Jospong Group of Companies subsidiary is also in the process of signing another contract with the government of Gambia to monitor revenue flow from the country’s telcos.
This was revealed during an interaction with the Parliamentary Select Committee on Communication in Accra, Wednesday.
The Select Committee on Communication was holding one of its periodic dialogues with players in the revenue assurance and monitoring sectors.
General Manager of Subah Infosolutions Ltd, Birenda Sasmal, said Sierra Leone, Kenya and the Democratic Republic of Congo would soon sign contracts with the ICT firm for the provision of revenue monitoring solutions.
He revealed that each contract with the African countries is estimated to cost between 20-40 million dollars over a five-year period.
He said Subah’s recognition by the various governments in the telecom sector, particularly in the area of tax collection, has been driven by the company’s commitment to delivering expected results.
He said innovation and creative technologies has also been a key strength of the firm.
Presenting an overview of Suba Infosolutions’ operations and capabilities, General Manager and Business Development, Redeemer Kwame, revealed that his outfit has developed innovations such as revenue assurance, banking solutions, document digitisation and set-top boxes to partner other organisations where their capabilities fall short.
He said the company has embarked on a digitisation project for Ghana Education Service (GES), which involves the scanning and storing in servers in six months 250,000 files with a total of 4.7 million sheets of paper.
He hinted that the company will soon embark on document digitisation system (DDS) which has the capacity to bring in excess of 5-10 million dollars annually and the payment gateway system (PGS) to allow serve multiple government revenue channels including but not limited to electricity, telephone bills and property tax management.
Mr. Kwame said Subah, in collaboration with the Bank of Ghana (BoG), will integrate their systems to ensure a cashless society.
