Summary of the contracting process

The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme - Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) is a public procurement opportunity initiated by Building Digital UK (BDUK) aimed at supporting the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in UK areas lacking commercial investment for such infrastructure. This programme targets the final 20% (f20) areas and envisions sustaining wholesale gigabit broadband services in hard-to-reach parts of the UK over a potential 9-year period. The procurement method used is 'Other,' with a total contract value of £2 billion. The tender period ends on April 6, 2030, and the contract period spans from April 7 to July 8, 2030.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for firms in the communications and network equipment industry. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly well-suited to compete due to the suitability criteria. The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme seeks to create long-term infrastructure solutions, making it an attractive prospect for businesses looking to engage in large-scale network development projects. Interested parties should take note of the substantial contract value and the long-term nature of the programme, which can provide a stable revenue stream for successful bidders.

Notice Title

Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme - Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS)

Notice Description

The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme, part of Project Gigabit, 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) 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.
