The Federal Government has terminated the National Broadband Network tender process with no winner, instead flagging plans to invest billions in building its own fibre-to-the-home network to 90 per cent of Australians over the next eight years.
2008 was a cracker year for telco in Australia, with so many huge events happening that those at the beginning of the year have been drowned by the importance of those at the end.
Telstra's proposal to build the government's $4.7 billion national broadband network has been accepted as a bid by Communications Minister Stephen Conroy, who late yesterday said it would be passed it along to the expert panel in charge of the process.
Terria, TransACT and Axia Netmedia this afternoon confirmed they had submitted National Broadband Network bids shortly before the government's deadline of 12 midday.
Axia Netmedia has put down in black and white its intention to lodge a bid for the government's $4.7 billion national broadband network.
