How to Win Funds for Your Broadband Business

INTRODUCTION

Forge Your Legacy. Connect Communities With This Once-In-A-Generation Funding Opportunity.

• Broadband brings vital services to your community in countless ways—and funding has never been more available than now. With broadband connectivity, you will boost your local economy, improve quality of life, and ensure that everyone is positioned to succeed in the digital age. This is your opportunity to create a legacy like none before—but funding is only available for a limited time.
• Obtaining the necessary funding can be difficult to navigate on your own. With so many programs and sources, it can be challenging to understand the landscape, determine if you qualify, work through the application process, and then manage your award. This eBook outlines the most up-to-date funding sources for broadband projects in the United States, their qualification criteria, and how to get started.

Why Now?

• It’s now or never. Becoming a broadband service provider (BSP) requires a lot of upfront capital. Until recently, traditional BSPs have had a stronghold on the market—deciding if and when to dip into their profits to expand or build new networks. The demand for digital equity has never been greater. This has opened the door to new funding opportunities that enable municipalities, tribal communities, and others to meet the soaring demand for broadband connectivity themselves.
• Today, more than 600 communities directly offer broadband services to some degree. This number is expected to rise exponentially thanks to state and federal funding programs that will award $120 billion between now and 2028 for new broadband infrastructure projects. This unprecedented level of available funding, coupled with private investment, has made it easier than ever for you to fund new broadband services.
• More than 600 communities offer broadband
• $120 billion in state and federal funding between now and 2028

The Broadband Industry: Past, Present, and Future

• Anyone working in the telecommunications industry can tell you that broadband access was a problem before 2020. Unserved, underserved, and underrepresented regions and territories have long struggled to keep pace with the digital evolution of larger cities. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, it soared to a crisis of epic proportions. The broadband gap became impossible to ignore.
• Lack of high-speed broadband may have previously been considered a mere inconvenience—frustration would mount if you couldn’t game online or stream a movie, for example. But, suddenly, it shot to the top of the priority list across the country. Reliable and affordable broadband access is critical to remote work, learning, telehealth, and entertainment. These are permanent fixtures in our post-pandemic world.
• To capitalize on these new opportunities, we must bridge the digital divide between those that are served, underserved, and unserved. Equitable access to affordable and reliable high-speed internet can eliminate some of the socioeconomic disparities that threaten the long-term viability of our communities.

RELIABLE AND AFFORDABLE BROADBAND ACCESS IS CRITICAL TO REMOTE WORK, LEARNING, TELEHEALTH, AND ENTERTAINMENT.

  • Projects must be completed within four years of the receipt of grant funds

Community Connect

• Another USDA program, Community Connect grants fund broadband network builds in unserved rural, economically challenged areas that private sector providers deem economically unviable to deliver services.

• Recipients can use funds to construct, acquire, or lease facilities, spectrum, land, or buildings to deploy broadband service to all residential and business customers within the proposed service area. They must also deliver service free of charge for two years to essential community facilities such as schools, fire stations, libraries, and public safety stations. Up to 10 percent of the grant can be used to improve, expand, build, or buy a community center that provides online access to the public.

  • Purpose
    To provide financial assistance to eligible applicants that will provide broadband service that fosters economic growth and delivers enhanced educational, health care, and public safety benefits in rural communities.

  • Total Value
    $79 million

  • Project Criteria
    Service a rural area that lacks broadband speed of at least 10 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream

Municipal Bonds

• Providers can also take advantage of the municipal bond network by entering into a public/private partnership with their local municipality to issue a bond. These bonds are exempt from federal taxes when funding capital expenditures such as broadband infrastructure projects. They can cover 100 percent of broadband construction costs.

• Many municipalities fund their broadband projects through municipal bonds. Bonds are issued to private investors and repaid over many years with revenue from the network. With a default rate of less than 2 percent, they are a very viable way to bring community broadband infrastructure projects to fruition.

  • Purpose
    To buy, build, or renovate new broadband infrastructure or facilities that will facilitate the delivery of broadband services to connect communities.

  • Total Value
    Varies depending on the municipality

  • Project Criteria
    Any net-new network builds or projects that will revitalize and accelerate existing fiber networks

State Funding

• In addition to tapping federal funding programs such as ARPA and BEAD, many states allocate capital funds to finance broadband infrastructure projects. Examples include the Border-to-Border Fund program in Minnesota and the Growing Rural Economies with Access to Technology (GREAT) program in North Carolina.

• While their overarching goal is similar, state grant programs can differ. Variables such as funding amounts, minimum speeds, eligibility, and other goals depend on individual states. Some states have specific requirements while others offer greater flexibility.

  • Purpose
    To increase the availability and adoption of broadband deployments in communities that lack sufficient access.

  • Total Value
    Varies depending on the state and the program

  • Project Criteria
    Specifics vary, but projects typically involve servicing unserved and underserved areas

Private Funding

• In addition to public funding programs, broadband providers can leverage private funding options. The primary purpose of private funding options is to close public funding gaps while allowing providers to scale significantly faster and accelerate growth. Many public funding programs are reimbursements, which means BSPs will need a significant amount of capital to get their projects started. Almost all programs require matching funds—and as you may expect, the greater the match, the greater the chance an application is successful.

• There are numerous private investment vehicles available including private equity, private debt, and venture capital. These vehicles are low risk, deliver long-term value, and give providers access to an abundance of investor expertise and best practices.

• The important thing to remember is that there is no need to choose between government and private funding—both can be featured in a provider’s funding tool belt. Most investors actually encourage providers to pursue public funding sources in addition to private ones. The goal is to enable smaller BSPs without access to sufficient capital to become competitive in public funding programs and win funding over larger companies with deeper pockets.

  • Purpose
    To supplement government funding and accelerate the growth of rural broadband infrastructure. This option offers providers a low-risk, strategic partnership that yields excellent long-term value.

  • Total Value
    Unlimited

  • Project Criteria

  • Ample opportunity for growth

  • Private equity and venture capital firms require providers to give up equity

More About the BEAD Program

As discussed previously, the BEAD program stands to have a significant impact on expanding internet access in unserved and underserved areas. The following expands on information provided in the previous chapter to help you get the most out of the program.

Why Is the BEAD Program Important?
High-speed internet access is no longer a luxury. It’s needed to fully engage in the economy, and it helps ensure public safety and the health of our nation. Unfortunately, too many Americans lack access to affordable, reliable high-speed internet. The BEAD program aims to address this problem by providing $42.45 billion from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) to expand high-speed internet access—accompanied with an expected $20 billion in matching funds. These funds can be used for funding planning, infrastructure deployment, and adoption programs. The program, which is managed by the NTIA, is being deployed across all 50 states, Washington D.C., and all five U.S. territories. The ultimate goal is to provide connectivity for all Americans. BEAD’s principal focus is on deploying broadband service to unserved and underserved locations.

• Unserved locations are defined as locations with either no broadband service or with access speeds below 25 Mbps downstream and 3 Mbps upstream.
• Underserved locations have access speeds greater than 25 Mbps downstream and 3 Mbps upstream, but less than 100 Mbps downstream and 20 Mbps upstream.

Who Are Eligible Entities and Sub-Grantees?
Every U.S. state and territory is an eligible entity under the BEAD program. Once eligible entities receive funding, they are responsible for distributing it to eligible sub-grantees, which include:

• Cooperatives and non-profits
• Public/private partnerships
• Private companies
• Utilities and public utility districts
• Local governments

Eligible sub-grantees that demonstrate they can provide service to all unserved and underserved locations can propose plans for other approved uses that support the program’s goals. However, the NTIA has made it clear that it strongly prefers eligible entities to use these “extra” funds to provide gigabit connections to community anchor institutions such as libraries and community centers.

What Are the Program’s Priorities and Requirements?
The BEAD program prioritizes projects designed to provide fiber connectivity directly to the end user. The program requirements are as follows:

• All projects must provide a low-cost option to eligible subscribers
• States must have plans to address middle-class affordability
• Applicants must provide a minimum 25 percent funding match supported by a letter of credit (LOC) or a performance bond equal to 100 percent of the BEAD sub-award amount (although there is flexibility to reduce the amount obligation if certain milestones are met)
• Applicants must participate in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) and adhere to specific labor and wage requirements
• Applicants must abide by various post-award requirements related to reporting and compliance
• Award recipients must comply with right of way (ROW) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requirements during the construction phase
• Applicants must adhere to workforce development and cybersecurity requirements
  For more information about these requirements, schedule a free consultation with our funding experts.

What Is the Program Timeline?
Here is a breakdown of key BEAD program milestones:

June 30, 2023
Eligible entities were allocated BEAD funds based on the number of unserved and underserved locations within their territories. See how much money was allocated to each entity.

December 27, 2023
Deadline for eligible entities to submit initial proposal volumes 1 and 2.

• Volume 1 describes how each state or territory’s challenge process will work. This process, which typically lasts 90 days, is used to determine which locations are truly unserved or underserved. The NTIA must approve the results of the challenge process before states can move forward.
• Volume 2 explains the guidelines of the application phase. Once the NTIA approves volume 2, the state has 365 days to submit a final proposal. It’s during this period that we will see the states open their application windows. The time it takes to secure approval varies by state; view this dashboard to assess current progress.

How Does the Challenge Process Work?
Sub-grantees can participate in their local challenge process. Participants must acquire a free CostQuest Tier D license to be eligible for participation.
There are two different approaches to this process:

1. Offensive. This approach supports new buildouts. Providers can challenge that locations competitors have deemed to be served are truly unserved or underserved.
2. Defensive. This approach protects your service area. Even if you are not pursuing funds, you should participate from a defensive position to ensure that locations within your service area aren’t eligible for BEAD funds. This will prevent competitors from overbuilding your network.

What Should You Do Now?
Familiarize yourself with your state’s initial proposal volumes 1 and 2. These documents will be your best resource for understanding how to successfully obtain funding. You should also ensure you understand all the program requirements—and start preparing to meet them now, because the application phase will move quickly.

Am I a Good Funding Candidate?

Decision makers consider a range of factors when it comes to determining how funds will be awarded. It is important to understand specific eligibility requirements for each opportunity and strategies to help you maximize points on your application. In addition to speed levels, there may be financial feasibility and technical capability thresholds to meet, as well as standards for infrastructure resiliency. For example, as previously noted, applicants must meet specific downstream and upstream access speed requirements to qualify for BEAD funding.
Here are a few ways you can maximize your chances of securing a slice of the funding pie.

• Focus on workforce development
  The NTIA has directed states to prioritize BEAD applications from operators committed to advancing equitable workforce development and job quality objectives. This includes setting diversity and inclusion goals, establishing training and recruitment best practices, and enforcing workplace standards.

• Tap the expertise of external partners
  They are well-versed in the broadband industry and can guide you through eligibility and funding applications.

• Provide speed
  Focus on unserved locations lacking service of at least 25 Mbps downstream and 3 Mbps upstream, or underserved locations lacking service of at least 100 Mbps downstream and 20 Mbps upstream, with a network that can scale to deliver symmetrical speeds of 100 Mbps or faster.

• Service an unfunded area
  Funding mechanisms will not duplicate funding for locations previously funded by other state or federal programs.

• Secure financing
  Programs such as BEAD require applicants to prove they have the financial capacity to build, deploy, and operate high-speed networks by providing a LOC, performance bond, or other proof of adequate funds.

• Think about match requirements
  Many programs require providers to bring a match to the table, including in- kind matches and require the match to be spent before authorizing grant funds.

• Consider rurality
  The USDA ReConnect program awards critical points for applicants serving the least dense population areas, and locations at least 100 miles from a city or town with a population greater than 50,000 people.

• Source project equipment domestically
  The Build America, Buy America (BABA) act stipulates that a minimum of 55 percent of components of any device purchased with financial assistance program funding must be sourced in the U.S. (with some exceptions).

• Participate in the ACP
  Many funding opportunities require candidates to participate in the FCC’s ACP to remove affordability barriers to broadband service.

How To Start Your Once-in-a-Generation Broadband Project

Begin your broadband funding journey with a feasibility study—a thorough pre- evaluation of the project and service area. The resulting extensive report will help you determine the viability of your broadband business case. To show the value and viability of your network, you will analyze the following elements in your feasibility study.

• Market Research and Community Needs
  Highlight the broadband options that are currently available in the area, service gaps, and outstanding needs. If you’re planning to build a broadband network in an unserved or underserved area, this will be straightforward since the options will be limited, but it’s still important to understand the big picture in your service area.

• Existing Infrastructure Audit
  Determine what communications infrastructure is already in place and/or mapped out. If an audit doesn’t exist, you’ll need to complete one to understand what’s available in terms of physical cables, poles, and equipment, and how the infrastructure has been laid out in the area. A crucial factor to consider within this step is your right-of-way permits. Regardless of whether you will be building your own infrastructure or using someone else’s, you will need valid permits to do so.

• Network Design, Technology, and Costs
  These should reflect the type of network you intend to build. For example, if you’re planning to build a fiber-optic network, you need to explain the technology and show what the network layout could look like. At this stage, it would be more of a conceptual design versus an in-depth blueprint. The estimated costs and timelines for the build are often included here.

• Financial Business Case
  Provide a model that accounts for the estimated costs to build and operate the network, as well as potential revenue over time. While the financial model is an estimate that includes many assumptions, the information in the financial business case is important to understand the level of required investment and to demonstrate the viability of your plan.

• Operational Wherewithal
  Interested parties will need to be able to show they are capable of operating a large broadband network.

• Armed with this information, you will understand the level of funding you need and be equipped to start exploring options. It can take between two and four months to complete a feasibility study depending on the size of the service area, the complexity of the environment, the services required, and the availability of geographical maps and analysis, and location-specific information.

• Compiling a feasibility study is a lot of work, requiring extensive research as well as technical and financial expertise. While there is some information you can gather independently, it’s likely you’ll need support.

THE PROCESS CAN BE SIMPLIFIED SIGNIFICANTLY WITH CALIX’S FUNDING CONSULT PROGRAM, WHICH LEVERAGES POWERFUL TOOLS FROM READY.NET TO PLAN OUT BEAD PROJECT AREAS, STREAMLINE APPLICATION PROCESSES, AND INCREASE YOUR CHANCES FOR APPLICATION APPROVAL.
