Project Description

Request for Quotes – Tanacross Fiber-to-the-Home

April 16, 2025

DOWNLOAD FULL RFQ

Tanana Chiefs Conference (TCC) is soliciting quotes from qualified Contractors to provide all labor, supplies, and equipment for the construction of a Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) broadband network in Tanacross, Alaska. The network has been fully designed by SGV International LLC, and all construction documentation is included with this Request for Quotes (RFQ).

This project supports the delivery of high-speed internet services to residents of Tanacross and reflects TCC’s ongoing commitment to expanding digital infrastructure in rural and Tribal communities.
Tanacross is a village located on the Alaska Highway and in the Upper Tanana Subregion. Tanacross lies approximately 12 miles Northwest of Tok, at milepost 1324 of the Alaska Highway. The region’s extreme temperature fluctuations and remote access present unique construction challenges, requiring specialized expertise in engineering, logistics, and project management. The objective is to engage a qualified contractor to execute the construction phase of the FTTH deployment in alignment with the SGV International design documents.

TCC seeks a contractor capable of beginning work immediately and managing the demands of an accelerated construction schedule. Successful execution will require effective coordination, strict adherence to scope, and on-time delivery.
