Golden State Connect Authority
Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
The government authority located in Sacramento, California is seeking a vendor to provide internet services utilizing fiber optic technology. The proposed network will support high-speed transmission of voice, data, and video, offering significantly faster speeds compared to traditional copper, cable, or satellite systems.
Fiber will be implemented to address the 'last mile' connectivity gap, as it is currently used primarily for the internet backbone and other high-demand applications but not widely available to homes and businesses. The project encompasses seven initiatives across three distinct service areas, with a total scope of approximately 1,065 route miles and the potential to pass 31,427 homes.
Interested vendors must submit any questions related to the project by June 8, 2026. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for May 11, 2026.
