Improving Wireless programme news

Progress reports

Following completion of the pilot the Improving Wireless programme will deploy the Juniper Mist modern, enterprise wireless platform as part of the existing Managed Wireless Service (MWS) into departmental and faculty buildings in a five year rollout from June 2025.  The programme has adopted the agile delivery approach with four weekly sprints of work. The information below details what has been delivered in each sprint.
