Industry consultation

NBN Co intends to provide a wholesale, open access network.Once built our broadband network will enable the provision of superfast broadband services to the Australian public via retail service providers (RSPs).

RSPs and application/content service providers are those that offer services to the Australian public and have a direct customer relationship with them. As a wholesale service provider, NBN Co does not have a direct relationship with end users.

We are committed to discussing our future network plans, policies and products with our partners; the retail and wholesale service providers. Right from the beginning, NBN Co has sought to work with the industry to determine what they need from us. We have engaged with the industry in all facets of our planned activities; in product design, operations, technical design and commercial terms. We have published many consultation papers, hosted NBN Co industry forums and executed detailed product deep dives with a range of telecommunication providers and technology companies.

NBN Co appreciates the ongoing involvement of industry in these consultations as we have benefitted greatly from industry expertise.
