Aerial Fiber Installation

Burnet County is seeking sealed proposals for aerial fiber installation. The project involves the installation of approximately two miles of 288-strand single-mode fiber optic cable on existing utility poles. The selected proposer will be responsible for delivering a fully compliant, carrier-grade fiber optic system that meets applicable codes, standards, and County technical requirements. The scope of work includes route survey and engineering, make-ready coordination, permitting, materials, construction, splicing, testing, and documentation. • The project is part of the County's Data Center Interconnect (DCI) and Network Modernization Initiative. • The selected proposer must have demonstrated experience in high-count aerial fiber deployments, utility coordination, and mission-critical network infrastructure construction. • The proposer must provide a comprehensive, end-to-end solution, including project management, engineering, permitting, materials, construction, splicing, testing, and documentation. • The County reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive informalities and minor irregularities.
