Ready excited to partner with Calix to help broadband providers win

Ready is excited to partner with Calix to help providers get the resources they need in order to connect more families and business to better services.

“We’ve heard from numerous providers across the country, but especially in rural communities, that BEAD’s requirements are onerous and its rules are difficult to understand. This partnership will allow us to simplify, streamline, and provide more opportunities for local providers to win at BEAD,” Scott D. Woods, Ready’s President, Public-Private Partnerships said. “This further continues Ready’s commitment to our mission to bring better broadband services to every single household – regardless of geographic location or any other demographic barrier.”

Ready’s tools, including automated reporting and compliance, will dramatically simplify each stage of the funding process for Calix’s customers. Ready’s platform, Broadband.money, will be available for customers to use to gain resources and tools necessary for BEAD success.

Calix is a key player in supporting its customers in deploying and complying with federal and state government funding programs. Over the past three years, the company has secured over $2 billion in federal and state funding programs including $650 million in green energy funds for Allo Communications.
