Superfast, ultrafast and gigabit capable broadband infrastructure - Open Market Review: request for information - January 2025

3. Geographical scope

This Request for Information (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: Geographic Scope.

The Scottish Government can supply blank templates for the OMR (as outlined in Annex C: Supporting evidence), showing the UPRNs across the nation that we consider relevant to the OMR process. The Scottish Government will restrict these UPRNs to the areas you indicate you have, or are planning, coverage in. These UPRNs have been sourced from Ordnance Survey AddressBase Premium Epoch 115, published December 2024.

To access this information, you will need to sign an Ordnance Survey Public Sector Contractor Licence. This is available on request from: gigabitomr@gov.scot.

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 Scottish Government via gigabitomr@gov.scot should they wish to discuss further.

Please note that although the UK Government also collects data and evidence across the UK, they do not assess submissions relevant to Scotland. All subsidy decisions for interventions in Scotland are based on the submissions to this Scottish OMR only.
