Bid Description:
This RFP is for a High Speed Broadband Feasibility Study and Business Plan. CVFiber is a Vermont Communication Union District with 17 towns surrounding the State Capital of Montpelier. Proposals are due by December 3, 2019. We are soliciting proposals for the development of a feasibility and business plan to evaluate feasibility, business structures, cost estimates and methods to build out a successful system by municipality or service area, identify linkages/partnerships with electric utilities and VELCO, educational and municipal entities, construction funding opportunities, revenue potential, and to identify where to begin construction of our network. Our overall objective is to establish a comprehensive plan for deployment and operation of a fiber-to-the premises (FTTP) and/or hybrid fiber/wireless system, which would be cash flow positive in 3-5 years. As a first step in the development of a business plan we have compiled a respectable amount of municipal specific data for supporting a feasibility assessment and have conducted an initial survey of our member municipalities.
