## Summary

The Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme DPS Lot 4 102807 Durham tender has been awarded to Borderlink Broadband Ltd by Building Digital UK. The contract is for the construction of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in hard-to-reach areas of the UK. The procurement method used was selective, with a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The total contract value is £6,602,000, and the contract period runs from 22nd September 2022 to 22nd March 2033. The tender deadline was 16th May 2022, and the award was made on 22nd September 2022.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the telecommunications and infrastructure construction sectors. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in wireless telecommunications, construction of communication lines, maintenance of telecommunications equipment, and installation of telecommunications infrastructure would be well-suited to compete for this tender. As part of the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy Programme, this contract aims to provide long-term, sustainable availability of gigabit broadband services in challenging areas of the UK, creating opportunities for companies to contribute to national digital infrastructure development.

## 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 Durham 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.
