The National Telecommunications Commission said Tuesday it developed an automated platform for licensing and permitting processes in line with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s directive to ramp up measures to digitalize government processes and ensure efficient and fast delivery of services.
The Online Processing System with Digital Payment System project aims to streamline and expedite the processing and issuance of licenses, permits, certificates, authorizations and clearances for telecommunications and internet infrastructure.
It said the pilot implementation of the system would be in licensing management of the NFD and services and interconnection division of NTC’s regulation branch.
The DPS component is set to be launched in September 2023 in preparation for a grand launch of the entire OPS-DPS system in October.
Representatives of Converge ICT, DITO, Easycall, GCash, Globe, Huawei, Infinivan, Maya, PT&T and Smart-PLDT attended the soft launch.
