📋 Tender Overview
Digital literacy in rural population centers and remote areas of the country is one of the challenges that the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) addresses, through the interventions of the National Telecommunications Program (Pronatel), thus increasing the exercise of digital citizenship, through the development of digital skills and the use of the State's online services.
In this context, the MTC has declared the viability of the project "Creation of the Fixed Internet Access Service in Populated Centers of the Madre de Dios Region", through the implementation of mixed telecommunications networks, using wired fiber optic links and microwave wireless links.
In this regard, Pronatel pointed out that this project will provide fixed Internet access service in 82 population centers in the Madre de Dios region, benefiting 144 public institutions in the education and health sectors, so that they can access and use communication, information and training services.
The MTC is committed to accelerating the expansion of Internet coverage, access and use, in order to generate more opportunities for all Peruvians. The viability of the Madre de Dios Regional Project will reduce the connectivity gap in the Peruvian jungle and bring greater economic and social development to the region.
Likewise, the project includes the implementation of 82 Digital Access Centers (DACs), as well as the installation of 82 Public Digital Access Spaces (EPAD) in strategic places in the beneficiary population centers, which will positively impact more than 45 thousand citizens of the Madre de Dios region.
It should be noted that the estimated investment amount of the project amounts to S/ 151.6 million and its physical execution is expected in an approximate period of three years, with an operation period of 15 years, under the modality of projects in assets.
