Coverage Test Plan Sample Clauses

Coverage Test Plan. Radio coverage is a key issue for the VA PS LMRN. It is also an area where vendors have substantial differences of opinion in how coverage is to be measured. We suggest that the test philosophy presented inTSB-88 be used as a universal “leveling field” for the procurement documents. TSB-88 does not describe a test plan, but rather provides guidelines for testing. While the Commonwealth’s design goal is a baseline 98.3% coverage availability throughout the Commonwealth, it will be the LMR vendor’s responsibility to guarantee a specified coverage availability throughout the Commonwealth. As part of the procurement process, Vendor guarantees of coverage will ultimately be specified in the vendor/Commonwealth contract. We will design the baseline system to the Commonwealth’s requirements, the specifications will establish this as a baseline, and the Coverage Test Plan included as part of the specifications will describe the conditions under which coverage will be demonstrated. We note that the vendor will design their system to exceed 98.3% coverage when they are required to guarantee that coverage level. We will take this into account when we establish sites. Each vendor’s approach to their coverage guarantees will vary according to a number of business decisions that they make at the time. This may mean, under certain circumstances, that they might require additional sites beyond those, which we deem as necessary to provide the requisite coverage. Under the procurement process envisioned in this scope, they would be required to use the sites established by the Commonwealth in advance, and to describe the level of coverage they would guarantee under that condition. The procurement process described above takes this vendor response into consideration, and puts pressure on the vendors to respond to baseline coverage requirements competitively. Should vendors, as an alternate, propose additional sites to meet the requisite coverage, we will work as the Commonwealth’s Project Manager to determine the impact of those sites, and the risk associated with a system that does not include those sites. We include in this scope of work, the development of a coverage test plan as part of the procurement specifications. The test plan will address two components: verification tests by the vendor, and confirmation tests on the basis of a valid statistical sample by HSMM. We also understand that the Commonwealth may test some of the coverage independently. The system will be d...

  • Stability Testing Patheon will conduct stability testing on the Products in accordance with the protocols set out in the Specifications for the separate fees and during the time periods set out in Schedule C. Patheon will not make any changes to these testing protocols without prior written approval from Client. If a confirmed stability test failure occurs, Patheon will notify Client within [***], after which Patheon and Client will jointly determine the proceedings and methods to be undertaken to investigate the cause of the failure, including which party will bear the cost of the investigation. Patheon will not be liable for these costs unless it has failed to perform the Manufacturing Services in accordance with the Specifications and cGMPs. Patheon will give Client all stability test data and results at Client’s request.

  • Performance Testing (a) All performance tests of the Project, including any Initial Performance Test required in Section 2 of Appendix VIII, will be performed in accordance with the test procedures set forth in Appendix VIII (“Performance Test”), including additional procedures and protocols related to Performance Testing as mutually agreed between Buyer and Seller (“Test Procedures”). Seller shall bear all costs and receive all revenues, if applicable, associated with all Performance Tests. (b) After the Initial Delivery Date and during the Delivery Term, Buyer will have the right to conduct a Performance Test (“Buyer Performance Test”) no more than once a calendar year to demonstrate whether the Project is capable of delivering the Distribution Services at the Contract Capacity. Within 30 calendar days following a Buyer Performance Test, Seller will have the right to retest the Project with a Performance Test (“Seller Retest”). For the avoidance of doubt, the results of any Seller Retest will supersede the results of the preceding Buyer Performance Test. (i) If a Buyer Performance Test or, if a corresponding Seller Retest has occurred, a Seller Retest demonstrates the Project is capable of delivering Distribution Services at or above ninety-nine percent (99%) of the Initial Contract Capacity, the Contract Capacity will remain the Initial Contract Capacity; (ii) If a Buyer Performance Test or, if a corresponding Seller Retest has occurred, a Seller Retest demonstrates the Project is capable of delivering Distribution Services at more than or equal to eighty-five (85%) of the Initial Contract Capacity, but less than ninety-nine percent (99%) of the Initial Contract Capacity (“Testing Band”), the Contract Capacity will be automatically adjusted (upwards or downwards) to the capacity commensurate with the amount of Distribution Services the Project delivered during the Performance Test within the Testing Band. (iii) If a Buyer Performance Test or, if a corresponding Seller Retest has occurred, a Seller Retest demonstrates the Project is not capable of delivering Distribution Services of at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the Initial Contract Capacity, an Event of Default shall occur in accordance with Section 7.1(a)(viii).
