[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
As promised, the National Telecommunications & Information Administration, has put out an RFP for various components of the digital-to-analog TV converter program. Saying it is looking for a mix of skills across large and small businesses, NTIA said it needs help in three areas: 1) Consumer education and communications, 2) Systems processing (e.g., determining consumer eligibility, coupon distribution and activation, certify retailers, and provide training materials), and 3) financial processing (e.g., administer the coupon authorization for redemption and retailer payment process, and perform independent auditing).
