Superfast and gigabit broadband infrastructure - Open Market Review: request for information

3. Geographical Scope

This RFI will allow us to identify potential intervention areas for public subsidy. The geographic scope of this request is all of Scotland. A map showing the geographic scope of the OMR can be found in Annex A.

The Scottish Government can supply blank templates for the OMR (as outlined in Annex B), showing the premises by their Unique Property Reference Numbers (UPRN) across the nation that we consider relevant to the OMR process. The Scottish Government will restrict these UPRNs to the areas suppliers indicate they have, or are planning, coverage in. These UPRNs have been sourced from AddressBase Premium Epoch 89, from Ordnance Survey, published December 2021.

To access this information, suppliers are required to complete an Ordnance Survey Public Sector End User Licence. This is available as an attachment in the documents section.

Suppliers may wish to have a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) in place with the Scottish Government prior to any data sharing, if this is not already in place. Contact gigabitomr@gov.scot to initiate this process or discuss further.

Suppliers who already supply this information to the Scottish Government as part of the existing rolling OMR process are encouraged to keep the current format – they should engage with the Scottish Government via gigabitomr@gov.scot should they wish to discuss further.
