EWA's Advocacy Report Tells the Story

September 21, 2021

Last week, the Enterprise Wireless Alliance (EWA) convened its annual Membership and Board of Directors meetings in Atlanta, Georgia. One of the more critical reports provided during the membership meeting is the Advocacy Initiatives Report, which is presented by EWA’s Regulatory Counsel, Liz Sachs, Esq.This report shares detailed activities associated with EWA’s endless pursuit to enhance the ability of its members to benefit from the spectrum resources that have dedicated for private enterprise uses by the FCC. As we noted during the opening session of the Wireless Leadership Summit, the environment for spectrum is changing. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) seeks to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of this finite resource, an objective that EWA totally endorses. Concurrently, however, it is imperative that the FCC remains aware of the many benefits that are provided to the American public through the implementation of proactive rules that support wireless systems owned and operated by private business enterprises.

If you want to become more engaged in EWA's advocacy initiatives, join us on the bi-weekly EWA Member Regulatory Teleconference. Every two weeks, Liz Sachs and I discuss regulatory and spectrum matters that can have an impact on member businesses. To make sure you receive the invitations to the teleconference, please call Kristi Wolford at 703-7975104.

This call is available only to EWA members. If you are not a member, join! Learn more about membership at EWA's website.

Using Spectrum Intel has been a game-changer for us. The platform is incredibly user-friendly, and the Market Area Reports have automated many tasks that we previously had to do manually, reducing delays of getting time sensitive data out to our sales team. The search functionality is impressively fast, and it’s clear that EWA is committed to continuous improvement, making the tool even more useful and intuitive. Highly recommend!

The advocacy and regulatory issues are very important to our business, and, without EWA, we would have no voice. Nobody is speaking up for players like us in Washington except EWA.

It’s not just about finding frequencies. It’s about finding the RIGHT frequencies for that customer, and EWA excels every time at that. We would not be moving forward without EWA.

It’s remarkable what we’ve been able to do with EWA’s support. It’s a collaborative effort that has allowed Midland to deliver unparalleled support to our customers. No one else has the depth of understanding of FCC rules, which has resulted in more application grants. Midland Communications has a profound appreciation for EWA’s advocacy efforts. It has allowed us to have a voice before the FCC.

A Beep has been a happy customer of Spectrum Intel since its launch. It’s easy to use, the information is much more accessible, and the service includes extra features that other license activity reporting services don’t have. Spectrum Intel saves my team time each week.

We use EWA for all of our FCC license applications. The staff at EWA provide outstanding customer service and do all they can to see that applications are granted. EWA does a super job of staying on top of situations that affect our ability to file license applications and serve customers. EWA’s Regulatory Call keeps us informed about what is happening with the FCC and their online systems.
