SCHEDULE A – STATEMENT OF WORK

Michigan High Speed Internet (MIHI)

Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program

Background:

The Michigan High-Speed Internet Office (MIHI) is moving into the implementation phase of the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program. As subgrantees, particularly smaller Internet Service Providers (ISPs), mobilize for the construction of their projects, they may face significant challenges related to the national supply chain for certain broadband equipment and materials. To proactively address these challenges, MIHI seeks to develop a statewide supply chain strategy that will provide subgrantees with a "competitive edge", mitigate risks, and foster a more resilient supply chain ecosystem.

Scope

This scope of work will focus on analyzing the broadband supply chain for specific equipment and materials for Michigan BEAD subgrantees, identifying vulnerabilities, developing mitigation strategies, and creating shared resources for subgrantees. The goal is to provide actionable intelligence and support that helps subgrantees navigate market dynamics, navigate compliance with requirements like Build America, Buy America (BABA), and successfully complete their projects on time and for their contracted subgrant amount.

A summary of the tasks is included below. A more detailed description of each task is included in the following sections:

1. Task 1: Market Sounding. Gather foundational data through interviews and information requests to ISPs, vendors, and state agencies.

2. Task 2: Platform Customization and Value Chain Mapping. Customize and populate a dynamic platform with information on the broadband supply chain ecosystem including value chain segments and vendor profiles. This will form the basis of the informational resource available to subgrantees.

3. Task 3: Build America, Buy America (BABA) Assessment. Assess the impact of BABA requirements on the supply chain and provide compliance guidance.

4. Task 4: Vulnerability and Risk Assessment. Identify potential supply chain vulnerabilities, analyze market dynamics, and assess risks related to material availability and supplier capacity.

5. Task 5: Strategic Mitigations and Support Strategies. Develop actionable strategies and resources to help subgrantees mitigate identified risks.

6. Task 6: Implementation Assistance and Technical Support. Develop and implement a framework for ongoing market monitoring and a process for subgrantees to report and escalate supply chain issues. Provide on-going technical assistance to subgrantees, as needed.

Requirements

Task 1: Market Sounding This task focuses on gathering foundational data from subgrantees, vendors, and other state agencies. The process will be efficient and not onerous for subgrantees, while providing the necessary information for subsequent analysis and resource creation.

Activities:

1. Review Subgrantee submitted Supply Chain Risk Management Plans for any useful information.

2. Conduct a non-onerous, 30-minute interview with each subgrantee to discuss their supply chain needs and key suppliers. As part of this process, issue a short information request, including a preliminary Bill of Materials (BOM), to inform future analysis.

3. Conduct targeted interviews with key vendors, suppliers, and other relevant state agencies to gather a wider market perspective.

4. Consolidate all information gathered from plans, interviews, and information requests into a structured dataset that will serve as the basis for all subsequent analysis and platform content.

Deliverables:

1. Summaries of stakeholder interviews and key findings.

2. A consolidated dataset of market information, including subgrantee needs, vendor capabilities, and material requirements.

Task 2: Platform Customization and Value Chain Mapping This task focuses on customizing a dynamic supply chain platform and the initial population of its core content. The work will be based on the data gathered in Task 1, supplemented with additional independent market data and research. This research will draw from a wide range of sources, including industry and market data reports (e.g., Fiber Broadband Association, Dell’Oro Group), regulatory data (e.g., FCC Broadband Map), competitive intelligence (e.g., public disclosures from major carriers), and industry news sources (e.g., Light Reading).

Activities:

1. Configure the technical architecture for the web-based platform.

2. Establish value chain segments that will be used to structure the platform and its reports.

3. Perform targeted market research to enrich the data gathered in Task 1, providing additional detail for the value chain map, vendor profiles, and component data.

4. Populate the platform with the value chain map, the initial set of vendor profiles, and the component-level information, making the first version of the resource available to subgrantees.

Deliverables:

1. An initial, accessible version of the dynamic supply chain platform, populated with:

i) An interactive broadband value chain map.

ii) A foundational set of vendor profiles.

iii) A repository of key component-level information

Task 3: Build America, Buy America (BABA) Assessment This task focuses on developing resources and providing direct support to help MIHI and its subgrantees understand and navigate the Build America, Buy America (BABA) provisions. This includes analyzing BABA's impact, creating clear guidance, and actively assisting in the development of waiver requests, as needed.

Please note: The activities and support provided in this task are for informational and procedural purposes only. This support does not constitute legal advice, nor does it guarantee or ensure final compliance with BABA regulations, which remains the responsibility of the subgrantee.

Activities:

1. Research the specific impacts of BABA provisions on the availability and cost of critical components identified in Task 1 and 2.

2. Create clear guidance documents and FAQs to help subgrantees understand the BABA requirements in the context of BEAD-funded projects.

3. Develop a standardized BABA waiver request template and provide direct assistance to MIHI and subgrantees in drafting and preparing evidence for waiver requests, as needed.

Deliverables:

1. A BABA impact analysis for critical components.

2. An FAQ and leading practices guide for BABA compliance.

Task 4: Vulnerability and Risk Assessment This task focuses on performing a targeted risk assessment of both the specific vendors identified by subgrantees and the critical components they plan to use.

Activities:

1. Create standardized frameworks to assess key risks, including supply chain fragility (e.g., lead times, single-source dependencies), vendor capability (e.g., financial stability, workforce), and regulatory compliance (e.g., BABA readiness).

2. Using the data and evidence gathered in Task 1, 2 and 3, perform and document assessments for subgrantee-identified vendors and critical components, assigning a risk band (Low / Medium / High) to each.

3. Populate the vendor and component profiles in the platform with their corresponding risk bands and assessment memos.

Deliverables:

1. An evidence-based risk assessment framework module integrated into the platform.

2. Completed risk assessments for key vendors and components, available within their platform profiles.

Task 5: Strategic Mitigations and Support Strategies This task focuses on developing actionable strategies and resources to help subgrantees mitigate the risks identified in Task 4.

Activities:

1. Based on identified risks, develop strategic guidance on topics like alternative suppliers and managing component shortages.

2. Evaluate the feasibility of collaborative purchasing among ISPs and develop guidance and resources on the topic to help connect ISPs together for possible collective purchasing agreements.

3. Format and upload all strategic content and assessments into the platform's resource library.

Deliverables:

1. Strategic mitigation guides published on the platform.

2. An assessment and guidance document on collaborative procurement strategies.

Task 6: Implementation Assistance and Technical Support This task focuses on providing ongoing support to MIHI and its subgrantees through a combination of platform-based tools and direct assistance.

Activities:

1. Design and build a project monitoring module within the platform, including a "Market Signals" dashboard and project status tracking. The “Market Signals” dashboard will consider supply chain delays for individual subgrantees, adjust timelines accordingly, and offer alternative suppliers/vendors to subgrantees if delays are onerous.

2. Create a standardized "Report an Issue" feature and workflows to assess and escalate subgrantee-reported issues.

3. Establish a process to provide on-demand technical assistance to subgrantees to help them use the platform and address supply chain questions.

1. An integrated project monitoring module within the platform

2. Issue reporting form

3. Technical assistance and issue escalation workflows

The Contractor will disclose, subject to confidentiality restrictions, to the State of any conflicts of interest and obtain your consent to proceed with the services. However, Contractor is a large firm that is engaged by new clients on a daily basis and as a result it cannot guarantee that, following its conflict search, an engagement for a third party will not be accepted somewhere else in Contractor.
