What is contestability?

Contestability, or competition in connections, means that other accredited companies (called an Independent Connections Provider) can provide a quotation for, and build, certain elements (called contestable works) of a new connection once you have applied for and received a dual offer for your connection from NIE Networks. For these ‘contestable’ elements of the connection, you will have a choice whether to accept the quotation from us or to accept a quotation from an ICP.
