Using the word 'will' multiple times in a sentence

Hello dear members, I have a question about using the word 'will' (future tense) in a single sentence.
The sentence below has 2 occurrences of the word 'will', is that required or can the second 'will' be dropped?

"We will collect information about the products, scenarios and use cases and will formalize the requirements needed".

Thanks in advance
Yaron

yaronkadem The sentence below has 2 occurrences of the word 'will', is that required or can the second 'will' be dropped? If the items listed are a clear, short parallel sequence, then you need only the first auxiliary verb, but if it gets complex (as in your sentence) it would be wise to keep that second one.
