Empowering Communities: Leveraging Pearce Services for BEAD Program Success

As the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program unfolds, municipalities across the United States are gearing up to tap into the $42.45 billion state grant initiative aimed at ensuring universal access to high-speed internet. In this article, we explain how Pearce Services stands ready to assist small to mid-sized municipalities in leveraging the benefits of the BEAD program.

The BEAD Program Overview

The BEAD program, overseen by the federal government and implemented state by state, marks a significant milestone in 2024 as funding is set to roll out. Over the last two years, states have been tasked with setting up broadband offices and formulating connectivity plans that will eventually designate subgrantees to build out the needed infrastructure. The state plans were due to the Commerce Department in late December, setting the stage for funding to flow and projects to commence. With funding in place, it’s now time for broadband engineers and design providers to come along as partners to service areas in need.
