Services include functional testing, defect diagnosis, rectification, and repairs to support pre-deployment workups and platform releases. The contractor will maintain and upgrade test equipment and analysis software, manage software licenses, and ensure the MTF remains aligned with the Maritime Multi Link Programme to standardize maritime platforms over the next five years. The contractor must possess technical expertise, system specifications knowledge, and access to original software documentation and tools. The vehicle provides mobile TDL testing capability that can be deployed nationwide to support trials, NATO exercises, and allied nation operations. Cyber Risk Level: Low (RAR-250529B05).
