About

Building Digital UK (BDUK) is seeking suppliers through the Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy programme to subsidise the build of gigabit-capable broadband infrastructure in parts of the UK unlikely to attract commercial investment (the final 20% or f20). The programme, part of Project Gigabit, aims to deliver long-term, sustainable availability of wholesale gigabit broadband services in the hardest-to-reach areas, builds on the success of existing BDUK programmes, and is envisaged to run for up to 9 years with contracts awarded throughout that period.

Insight

This could be ideal for network operators and infrastructure builders experienced in deploying gigabit-capable networks in hard-to-reach UK areas; applicants should consider the focus on f20 locations that are unlikely to attract commercial investment and the requirement to deliver long-term sustainable wholesale gigabit services over a programme envisaged to last up to 9 years.
