The Office of Infrastructure Policy and Development (OIPD), under the direction of the Office of the Governor, is establishing a list of qualified vendors who can provide innovative and cost-effective proposals for utilizing the Broadband Equity Access And Deployment (BEAD) Program that Guam received. The federal government allotted over $156.8 million to our island in line with a nationwide initiative to bring affordable high-speed internet for all, and we aim to ensure that these funds are employed effectively and judiciously. (https://www.internetforall.gov/) The primary objective of the RFI is to pull together a list of qualified vendors interested in competing in future BEAD grant funding for resilient, scalable, secured, affordable, high-speed, and sustainable broadband solutions relevant to this region in the Western Pacific. Our interests include broadband solutions that enhance broadband access, ensure equity, and optimize the deployment of federal resources.
