This project is in the "Tender" stage and aims to enhance broadband availability in areas of Cheshire and Warrington that currently lack superfast service. The open procedure for bidding began on 6th June 2017, with a deadline to submit bids by 25th August 2017. The contract is valued at £10,080,000, with a minimum value of £5,080,000. The contract period is set to commence on 30th October 2017 and will run until 29th October 2027, primarily focused on the internet services industry within the North West region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses, particularly those specialised in providing broadband infrastructure and related services. Companies capable of delivering high-speed internet solutions and those with experience in large-scale public infrastructure projects would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract.
