Service Stream Limited has signed a new four-year operations and maintenance master agreement, or OMMA, for the provision of operations and maintenance field services to nbn. Under the OMMA, Service Stream will be responsible for performing operations and maintenance field service works including Service Activations, Service Assurance, Network Assurance and Preventative Maintenance activities. These services will be provided across nbn's fixed line multi-technology network, including Fibre to the Node (FTTN), Fibre to the Premise (FTTP), Fibre to the Basement (FTTB) and Hybrid Fibre-Coxial (HFC) technologies.

Service Stream is expected to commence field works under the new agreement in March 2016, delivering services to nbn within defined contracted areas across QLD, NSW, ACT, VIC, WA and NT. The initial award and contract regions reflects the operations and maintenance for a significant portion of nbn's fixed line footprint.
