UK ISP Quickline<\/a>, which is part of Bigblu<\/a> group, has today secured a new \u00a39.11 million contract that will see them deploy “superfast<\/em>” (30Mbps+) and “ultrafast<\/em>” (100Mbps+) capable fixed wireless and Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP<\/a>) based broadband services to 6,700 extra premises across rural West Yorkshire and York.<\/p>\n

The contract, which includes coverage for 1,700 businesses<\/strong> and 5,000 homes<\/strong>, was awarded to Quickline<\/a> via a competitive tender from the West Yorkshire Combined Authority<\/a> (WYCA). The framework for all this follows the model set out by the Building Digital UK<\/a> (BDUK) based Superfast Broadband programme.<\/p>\n

Apparently, the roll-out itself will take 2 years to complete (i.e. by the end of 2022) and “most<\/em>” premises can expected to receive download speeds of 100Mbps. However, Bigblu<\/a> hasn’t revealed precisely how many of these are to benefit from a “full fibre<\/em>” connection and instead states that “a number of premises<\/em>” will receive it, which suggests that FTTP<\/a> may be in the minority for this deployment.<\/p>\n

The contract itself provides for a total investment of \u00a39.11m<\/strong> in both fibre and fixed wireless networks. This includes a subsidy of \u00a37.646m, with \u00a36.898m funded from DEFRA (via the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development) and \u00a3748,000 from the Combined Authority. Quickline<\/a> will also contribute \u00a31.464m of investment to support the roll-out.<\/p>\n

Steve Jagger, CEO of Quickline<\/a>, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We’re excited to be working with the West Yorkshire Combined Authority and City of York to deliver high speed internet to local, hard to reach areas. We understand the challenges of delivering rural broadband services that is why we pride ourselves on delivering flexible, hybrid innovative solutions.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Andrew Walwyn, CEO of Bigblu<\/a> broadband, added:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We believe that this is the first of a number of potential contract wins for Quickline under BDUK’s Superfast broadband programme. This win emphasises the growth potential within the Group that management highlighted when it announced the disposal of Bigblu<\/a>’s UK and European Satellite<\/a> Broadband Operations.<\/p>\n

We are delighted that Quickline has secured this contract – with last year’s \u00a312m funding affording it the flexibility for it to tender for capital intensive contracts as it targets a customer base of approximately 30,000 subscribers over the next three years.<\/p>\n

Importantly, there are a number of further opportunities and live tenders, that had been delayed by Brexit and COVID-19, which if converted will provide further significant scale and value to the business. We expect that BBB will benefit from Quickline’s increased valuation, revenues and profitability as its accelerated growth strategy is successfully implemented.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Quickline added that they expect to “see strong take-up of broadband services from these previously under-served areas<\/em>” and as a result of that they also hope to achieve “at least its targeted return on capital of c.15% over the life of the contract<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

The new deal comes a year after the provider secured an additional investment of \u00a312m (here<\/a>) to help them roll-out a new unlimited “ultrafast broadband<\/em>” (100Mbps+) capable network to 30,000 premises across the north of the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

In February 2020 Quickline also became the lead on one of the Government’s new Rural Connected Communities<\/strong> (RCC) project’s (here<\/a>), which aims to build small mobile phone networks in areas that have no mobile coverage. This is on top of their participation in last year’s 5G<\/a> Rural Integrated Testbed pilot (here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Like many ISP’s they’re also a government approved supplier under the Rural Gigabit Connectivity Programme, which enables them to secure vouchers worth up to \u00a33,500 per premises to fund the cost of providing gigabit-capable broadband in rural communities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
