Summary of the contracting process

The Cornwall Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Superfast 2," aimed at enhancing next-generation broadband access services with a target speed of 30+Mbps in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The process involves a public sector investment amounting to £14 million, sourced from the UK Department for Culture, Media and Sport, Cornwall Council, and the European Structural and Investment Funds programme for the period of 2014 to 2020. Key dates include the contract period from 20 August 2018 to 30 April 2019, with an initial information day for interested parties scheduled for 8 July 2018.
