What is the difference between option 1 and option 2?

Option 1 is for NIE Networks to carry out all the Contestable and Non Contestable work associated with your connection, as described in the Functional Specification. This is referred to as the Full Works Option.  Please read the information found in your Quotation pack as you may be responsible for the excavation and re-instatement within your site, at a cost to you.
 
Option 2 is for NIE Networks to carry out the Non-Contestable work associated with your connection only.  Please refer to the Functional Specification for details of the specific work to be delivered by NIE Networks under Option 2. An accredited Independent Connection Provider (ICP) will carry out the Contestable work and it is your responsibility to nominate an ICP.
