Quick Answer

What should be included in commercial Wi-Fi?

The short answer

A complete scope for commercial Wi-Fi covers coverage, capacity, roaming, cabling, switching, security, and support. It should also name assumptions, exclusions, customer dependencies, acceptance criteria, and who owns the system after handover. Anything left implicit becomes a change order later.

Start from the deliverables list

Write the scope as deliverables rather than products. For commercial Wi-Fi, each line should say what gets installed, what gets tested, what gets documented, and who signs off.

Scope items to confirm in writing

  • Every deliverable, with quantities and locations
  • Assumptions and site conditions the price depends on
  • Explicit exclusions and customer-furnished items
  • Acceptance testing, as-builts, and training
