Yes "related affiliates" but I don't think that info is made public.

I believe you have to clearly disclose all associations with sister
companies that you have and Own, so I’m not sure this would fly.

I don't know the answers, but regarding install equipment, couldn't you
create another company or subsidiary that buys all that fancy gear and
then pay them prevailing wage, so that they can pay for the equipment with
the profits? At the end of the project, your other company owns some
plows, bucket trucks, fusion splicers, etc. I think this is how it worked
with some of the BTOP middle mile projects.

For anyone who has applied for usda or caf funding for fiber.
How did the process work for you? It seems like a catch 22.
Do you engineer the network first and then apply for the funds you need?
Or apply using good faith estimates and then engineer after you’ve been
awarded?
What happens if you don’t use all the funds? Do you just give them back?
What happens if you run out? (I assume you are obligated to return the
uses funds or finish the build using your own capital)
Can usda/caf funding generally be used to purchase equipment (eg vibratory
plow, bucket truck) or only the infrastructure? (Eg fiber)?
