FCDL Comment: DR1:FCC Rules require applicants to evaluate the cost effectiveness of all bids received and to choose the most cost effective solution. Documentation provided failed to demonstrate that the selected solution for Dark Fiber from Unite Private Networks, LLC (SPIN: 143029868) is the most cost effective option in comparison to Lit Fiber from Unite Private Networks, LLC (SPIN: 143029868) based on the vendor responses to the FCC Form 470 associated with this FRN. This FRN is denied as the applicant did not select the most cost effective solution.||DR2:During the review process you provided addendum that contained significant information for the bidders to be able to respond to the FCC Form 470 and RFP. Specifically the addendum extended the due date to respond to RFP to 01/23/2018. Program procedures require the FCC Form 470, RFP as well as documentation providing any additional or modifying the original information in your FCC Form 470 and/or Request for Proposal be uploaded into the FCC Form 470 in E-rate Productivity Portal for all potential service providers to evaluate. Documentation that contained information needed for potential bidders to respond to your RFP was not uploaded to the E-rate Productivity Portal and thus not made available for all potential vendors to evaluate. Therefore, this FRN is denied.||MR1:The Total Project Plant Route Feet for FRN Line Item 001 was modified from 145411 to 147470 to agree with the applicant documentation.||MR2:The Average Cost Per Foot of Outside Plant for FRN Line Item 001 was modified from $11.69 to $11.52 to agree with the applicant documentation.||MR3:The Total Strands for FRN Line Item 001 was modified from 4 to 1152 to agree with the applicant documentation.||MR4:The Number of E-Rate Eligible Strands for FRN Line Item 001 was modified from 4 to 516 to agree with the applicant documentation.||MR5:The Contract Award Date was changed from 03/02/2018 to 03/22/2018 to agree with the documentation provided during the review of the FCC Form 471.||MR6:The Contract Expiration Date was changed from 06/30/2029 to 06/30/2028 to agree with the documentation provided during the review of the FCC Form 471.
