24 January 2014 - Public Consultation on the Review of OpenNet Pte Ltd's Interconnection Offer (“ICO”) for the Provision of Services on Nationwide Broadband Network.
OpenNet Pte Ltd ("OpenNet"), the Network Company ("NetCo") selected to build, operate and maintain the passive infrastructure of the Nationwide Broadband Network ("NBN"), plays a pivotal role in the implementation of the NBN and IDA places significant emphasis on achieving a successful and effective implementation of the NetCo layer. Since the last review of OpenNet’s ICO in July 2012, IDA has been monitoring market developments and notes the following:
a) the quota adjustment mechanisms (i.e., Maximum Quota and its adjustment mechanism, as well as the Seasonal Quota arrangement) have been unable to effectively cope with the increased demand for OpenNet’s services; and
b) there continue to be protracted delays in OpenNet’s provisioning of Residential and Non-Residential End-User Connection services.
In view of the above, IDA considers that it is reasonable and necessary to conduct a further review of OpenNet’s ICO, to ensure that these are able to meet the industry’s needs and the demand for OpenNet’s services. As part of the ICO review, IDA has required OpenNet to propose certain changes to its ICO ("IDA Initiated Changes") and OpenNet has also proposed certain changes to its ICO ("OpenNet Initiated Changes"). OpenNet has since submitted the proposed changes to its ICO ("Draft Revised ICO").
