The Challenge: MTC (Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones) Homologation Barrier to Market Entry
All telecom devices in Peru must be homologated by the MTC (Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones (Ministry of Transport and Communications)) prior to import. For products like servers, routers, and smart terminals, this requirement often delays time-to-market by weeks or months.
Strategic Turning Point
Clients were unable to clear customs due to missing MTC (Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones) approval. DEEP SUR stepped in to decouple product complexity from administrative process, providing a fast-track homologation pathway.
The Solution: Predictive Homologation Strategy
- Identified and grouped devices by technology family and usage class
- Coordinated with certification labs and manufacturers to prepare compliant technical documentation
- Submitted and tracked approvals directly with MTC (Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones)
- Developed a library of pre-approved references for future shipments
The Results
- Dozens of product lines homologated without delay
- Entry time reduced by up to 70%
- Full product traceability maintained
- Scalable solution applied across devices and business units
DEEP SUR enabled clients to position high-value products in the Peruvian market at scale, with speed and full regulatory support.
