WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 2026 – Maryland’s newly established Single View platform supports visibility of statewide broadband assets, helping officials plan projects faster, spend smarter, and coordinate with private providers, making it a national model in public-sector broadband development.
On Wednesday’s Fiber for Breakfast hosted by the Fiber Broadband Association, Eric Bathras, CTO of Office of Infrastructure at the Maryland Department of Information Technology, shared the most recent updates on Single View, and future plans to build out the program.
Through Bathras’ experience working at ACOM, he noticed large gaps in states’ ability to navigate all its broadband and digital infrastructure assets, especially in the public sector. As a result, he joined an effort of drafting a state executive order that would establish a solution to this problem.
