BDUK was an initiative set up by the Department of Culture Media and Sport (DCMS) to stimulate investment in the UK’s broadband infrastructure in hard to reach and rural areas which were not covered by the commercial investment programme.

We developed this tool for the BDUK roll out programme, Openreach and DCMS, to allow customers to enter either a phone number or postcode into a search box and the system then reports back a message on the current availability of fibre broadband to their business or home premises. Their location is then shown on a google map showing the current status of their geographic area.
