Purpose: A Mobile Digital Twin is a bespoke tool that enables capture of mobile coverage information across all Operators using multiple sources. This tool will also create outline informed solutions for fixing areas of poor/no mobile coverage. OCC will own the licence for the tool and enable other local authorities to invest in access to it for a fee payable to OCC. The tool will be commissioned for development by a third party and contracted via GCloud. The OCC investment is capped at £500k with the procurement having a framework value of £3m allowing for other local authorities to invest in it via a formal agreement.
