Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
Published justification

This supplier is the existing service provider for WiFi services in Student Accommodation. This extension aligns all current and previous commitments to a single termination date and incorporates new residential services required within a limited timeframe. The University will also benefit from using the legacy equipment in the accommodation for a further two years, reducing the need for premature hardware replacement and supporting the University's sustainability goals by extending the lifecycle of existing assets.
