A municipal BoM for a citywide indoor WLAN lists only exact install quantities with no extras. What resilience gap should the design documentation close?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Cities can’t wait six weeks for a truck when a lobby AP dies before election week. Put spare APs—and the licenses that make them useful—in the BoM like spare tires. Cloud dashboards don’t conjure hardware from thin air.
Full Explanation
Operational resilience requires Bill-of-Materials planning for spare APs plus licenses/support so failed or surge units can be activated under change control. Exact-fit quantities without spares create prolonged outages under procurement delays. Omitting licenses for spares, deferring to future budgets, or assuming management platforms remove hardware risk leaves municipalities exposed.
