Description

BDUK had previously decided to abandon this procurement, having been unable to conclude a contract following the procurement and evaluation process.

BDUK now has reason to believe a contract can be concluded following this procurement process, and so is not abandoning the procurement.

The original opportunity description is below:

This procurement is for the award of a Regional Supplier Contract in the Mid-West Shropshire region. This is part of the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme.

The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme is a government programme aimed to support the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in the areas of the UK which are unlikely to attract commercial investment for gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure within a reasonable timeframe, if at all, referred to as the final 20% (f20). Building Digital UK (BDUK, part of DCMS) will be targeting its market intervention in these areas of the UK via this subsidy award programme, to subsidise the build of gigabit-capable networks providing long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest to reach parts of the UK. The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme builds on the success of existing programmes being delivered by BDUK to deliver gigabit-capable networks across the UK. It is envisaged this programme will last for up to 9 years and award contracts throughout that period.

This procurement is for delivery of a gigabit-capable network in Mid-West Shropshire region.
