As the States and other grantees/subgrantees receive and implement federally funded broadband programs, there is uncertainty about current Administration policies, executive orders and directives related to procurement and grant subawards. This intersectional discussion will examine these Administration mandates with a focus on the impact on procurement best practices and workforce sustainability. Attendees will hear about practical steps companies can undertake to comply with Administrative mandates and stay within federal guidelines to ensure the buildout of broadband network services in their myriad forms are made accessible and affordable to everyone and everywhere.
