There is a requirement to have both fixed workstations at the venues and also to allow customers to bring their own devices which can connect to the network.\nThe City will consider the feedback received as part of this SMT to help inform its options and decision making. For the avoidance of doubt, this phase of the project is not part of a formal procurement process and the City is not committing, at this stage, to carrying out such a process."
