Questions already answered for this Invitation to Bid will show below.
Q: 1) Which site will be the hub? We build private, point-to-point fiber networks for school districts nationwide. We offer unlimited bandwidth at a fixed rate for life. There will be nothing in between your hub site and your edge sites.
2) Will you allow alternate contract lengths? We typically offer districts 5 and 10 year contracts. The E-Rate Special Construction Rule allows district to drastically buy down their monthly for life. This rule is a game changer and we allow districts to pay off any remaining construction costs after Special Construction over 4 years. Using a three year contract would not allow you to take full advantage of the cost savings associated with Special Construction. Taking these savings into consideration show Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
A: The applicant is simply looking for Internet Access via Leased Lit Fiber for Transport at each location.
