This FRN will be denied because you failed to select the most cost-effective service offering in violation of the FCC's rules. Specifically, you sought E-rate funding for (cellular and data service) from multiple service providers for the same locations and time periods on its FCC Form 471 Application No. 878649. The documents that you provided to USAC indicate that you selected Verizon and ATT and Sprint to each provide the requested (cellular and data service) to the same locations during the same time periods. In addition, the documents provided to USAC do not indicate that ATT and Sprint were unable to provide all of the requested cellular and data services to Green Dot Public Schools. Therefore, because ATT and Sprint services were more expensive than Verizon services, ATT and Sprint services were not the most-cost effective offering as required by the FCC's rules and the Macomb Order and funding is denied.
