E-Rate Form 470 RFP Feed
We turn USAC's FCC Form 470 filings into one record per posting: the US school, district, library or consortium buying E-Rate-discounted connectivity, what it wants, and when it can sign. Each record folds together every service request and every attached RFP document for that posting, plus the applicant, technical and consultant contacts.

Questions buyers ask
How do I find E-Rate RFPs I can actually bid on?
Filter rfpOnly to true, plus your states and serviceCategory. Each returned posting carries every attached RFP document as a direct URL under rfpDocuments, and service-level filters never truncate a posting's other service requests.
Does this tell me who won an E-Rate contract?
No. A Form 470 is a request, not an award. Who won is published in a different USAC dataset, Form 471 / funding commitments.
How fresh is this E-Rate posting data?
