Broadband
Horizons offers a flexible range of options in structuring the relationship
with the municipalities or utilities.
Our level of involvement depends on the specific goals and needs of your community or organization.
Broadband Horizons can manage the entire project and bring Broadband Internet Services to your community over the power lines.
Our turnkey services include business plan development, engineering, installation, vendor selection, capital funding, marketing and ISP services.
Utilizing franchise agreements with the utility, revenues are shared based
on each party’s level of contribution.
Three Options for Service Provider Partnership
Landlord model – The City/Utilily allows right of way access to the infrastructure. Broadband Horizons assumes complete responsibility.
Partnership model - The City/Utility leverages its key strengths (network field component installation and system management) while outsourcing other parts (sales, service, marketing, ISP content delivery) to Broadband Horizons.
Utility as Service Provider model – The City/Utility would be very heavily involved in ISP content delivery, ISP network operations, customer support and marketing (portions of the value chain best left to other providers with experienced in ISP content delivery).
