Access to Industry Bond Forms
NASBP offers a variety of forms for different purposes. Some forms were created by NASBP and its membership, others are offered by industry partners. Many of the resources listed below are free or discounted for NASBP Members, Affiliates, and Associates.
BEAD Program Surety Bond Information Kit
NASBP and The Surety & Fidelity Association of America (SFAA) have prepared this free kit, including bond forms, to address the announcement of the NTIA of the U.S. Department of Commerce to allow surety bonds as an alternative form of security to letters of credit for the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) Program. One bond form addresses situations when the internet service provider can qualify for bonding and furnishes the bond directly to the state broadband office. The second bond form addresses situations where the contractor to the ISP that is building out the broadband system is better suited to qualify for bonding.
