Overview
Essex County Council is seeking to appoint one or several partners to deliver Phase 4a (Phase 4, Tranche 1) of its Superfast Essex broadband programme. Superfast Essex is part of the UK national broadband initiative overseen by DCMS.
ECC has successfully completed its Phase 1 rollout and is currently implementing Phases 2 and 3. Using a mixture of project implementation savings from previous phases, subsidy clawback from existing delivery contracts, new funding from Essex districts and new grant funding, Phase 4 aims to: (a)ensure more than 99% of all fixed addresses in the county have access to superfast broadband; (b)complete the rollout by December 2021; (c)make effective use of project savings and external funding sources to avoid the need for new ECC capital funding.
This procurement is split into 3 lots comprising Epping Forest District, Basildon District and Braintree District. The estimated total value of Phase 4a across all three lots is between £2 m and £5.5 m.
