The Communications Commission of Kenya is the independent regulatory authority for the communications sector with responsibilities in telecommunications, radio communications, e-commerce, broadcasting and postal services in Kenya.
As part of its mandate, the Commission is required to ensure universal access to communications services in all parts of the country including rural and remote areas.
In order to carry out this mandate effectively, and efficiently, the Commission is inviting qualified consultancy firms to undertake a study meant to identify and document access gaps in the information and communications technologies sector, specifically gaps relating to voice, data/internet, broadband, postal and courier services in Kenya.
The key objective of the study is to establish the market efficiency and true access gaps with respect to the aforementioned ICT services. The identified gaps will form the basis on which estimates for the incentives required to stimulate investment in the high cost areas shall be derived.
The Study is expected to assist the Commission in developing and implementing effective and sustainable universal access programmes in rural and low income areas with a view to bridging the digital divide in the country.
CCK, therefore, invites interested firms to collect tender documents from the Procurement Unit at the Commission's offices, CCK Centre, Waiyaki Way, Nairobi, between 9.00 a.m and 4.00 p.m.
