About the company
Smiling J LLC, doing business as Hilltop Broadband, is a Colorado-based limited liability partnership that deploys fiber-optic broadband infrastructure as a sub-recipient on federal broadband-expansion grants. The vendor operates exclusively in a subcontractor role (100% of recent awards) under the Department of Commerce National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), with all three recent awards stemming from a single grantor relationship dating to July 2026.
Hilltop Broadband's federal footprint consists entirely of grant sub-awards from the Governors Office of Information Technology (Colorado), the prime recipient on NTIA broadband-deployment initiatives. The three sub-awards, all dated July 31, 2026, task Hilltop with fiber-optic network deployment and construction across three contiguous Colorado project areas: near Loveland, the Lake Deweese area, and within Loveland proper. The Loveland-area project calls for deployment of XGS-PON technology to 494 locations (201 underserved, 293 unserved) with construction of approximately 117 total route miles of buried and aerial fiber. The Lake Deweese sub-award covers 151 underserved locations and 8 route miles of aerial fiber. The second Loveland project targets 413 locations (6 underserved, 407 unserved) and requires approximately 136 total route miles of buried and aerial fiber construction. Combined potential value across the three sub-awards is $12.8 million obligated as of July 2026. The vendor has no recorded federal contract prime awards, no seats on government-wide vehicles, and no federal grant prime relationships in the available source data. Activity is confined to a single calendar year (2026) with a single federal customer (NTIA) accessed through a single state prime recipient, indicating early-stage or pilot-phase participation in federal broadband-stimulus programming rather than an established federal footprint.
