TELETOK is seeking proposals from qualified respondents to build a fibre optic network to connect approximately 441 premises in the three atolls: Fakaofo, Nukunonu, and Atafu. As the current domestic copper network represents a bottleneck for providing broadband services, the deployment of a new "fibre to the premise" (FTTP) network is of critical importance.
Respondents are asked to provide a proposal that describes their approach and cost estimate for building a turn-key FTTP network. TELETOK expects the selected respondent to operate as the general contractor who will be responsible for both network deployment and procurement of materials.
