The specific service required is user acceptance testing of the user interfaces and establishing that the EAS accurately implements the auction rules. For simplicity, we refer to this testing as "EAS testing". These requirements will also cover the possibility of an additional clock auction that will follow the 26 GHz/40 GHz auction, which would be triggered at Ofcom's sole discretion, using the same EAS configured for the subsequent auction. As a minimum, the service must deliver the following: - User acceptance and functional testing on auctioneer, bidder, and monitor interfaces in line with the detailed software spec - Testing on the accuracy of implementation on the proposed auction rules, initially in line with published illustrative auction procedures, and ultimately to reflect formal Auction Regulations. The EAS will be a web-based application for both Ofcom and bidders. It is envisaged that the successful tenderer will carry out the testing by accessing the EAS over the internet from its own premises. ## CPV classification System software acceptance testing consultancy services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/c53b9950-4902-4585-97ee-e037d87fe996) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
