## Summary

Building Digital UK has awarded a contract for the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme DPS Lot 34.01 in Northumberland. The programme aims to support the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in areas unlikely to attract commercial investment. The contract value is £7,304,000, and the procurement method is selective, with a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract period spans from 14th October 2022 to 14th April 2033, and the tender period ended on 15th April 2022.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the communications network and maintenance services industry. Companies well-suited to compete include those offering telecommunications equipment, construction work for communication lines, installation services, and maintenance of telecommunications equipment. The contract period of up to 9 years allows for long-term business planning and growth within the gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure sector, supporting the government's goal of delivering connectivity to harder-to-reach areas in the UK.

## Notice

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. This contract is for the Northumberland intervention area. Some documents that form part of this contract have not been included within the published document set as their entire contents are commercially sensitive.
