Requires OIT to establish Statewide wireless network through public-private partnership agreement.
New Jersey's S 1092 requires the Office of Information Technology (OIT) to partner with a private company to build and operate a statewide wireless network. The private entity would cover construction and maintenance costs while managing the network for a set period, with the state retaining ownership and eventual control. Before signing such agreements, OIT must prove the partnership is cheaper than a public option, hold public hearings across the state, and document risk management. The network would provide broadband service meeting minimum speed standards for state agencies and the public.
