Mobile AVUGPS Solution Satellite RFP #131061 Integratnrs, Inc February 23, 2007 Test and Implementation Plan The major purpose of the Implementation Plan is to define a process for deploying the technical elements of the RSI AVL Project, and then schedule the integration of these elements into each agency's operating system This transition not only calls for a partial re -deployment and enhancement of the current rolling stock, but also for the smooth integration and deployment of the AVL technology that is specified In the Scope of Work In order to make the transition as smooth as possible and overcome any functional, technical, operational, and communication difficulties as they anse, RSI will utilize a phased approach At the same time, in order to ensure the final delivery of a system that conforms to the Project requirements, significant emphasis will be placed on the importance of achieving the operational and technological functionality defined in this Scope of Work and other `Contract Documents' The Implementation and Test Plan represents the vehicle through which RSI shall examine each operating function of the RSI AVL system to e Verify compliance with the system specifications, level of service standards and operating performance criteria e Obtain the CLIENT's acceptance RSI will be responsible for component specific testing As integration of the technical components begins, the CLIENT Project Manager (& necessary staff) will oversee and coordinate the implementation of the integration testing in order to ensure compliance with the overall project and performance objectives set forth herein The anticipated dates for conducting the required testing are defined in the Project Work Plan and will be finalized during the Master Project Planning Meeting Three levels of system testing will be employed during the course of the RSI AVL Project, as follows Laboratory individual module testing followed by integration testing to ensure the functionality of the components and the interoperability of the data interfaces between each component prior to deployment Pilot a limited `live' deployment of all technological components necessary for the full operation of each system element Acceptance Testing the final test to ensure that each technical component of the system as well as the total system (technical components and operating services) conforms to system specifications, level of service standards and operating performance criteria Radio SaWi to Integrators Inc CONFIDENTIAL 54 Radio NFRMPO Mobile "L/GPS Solution O(Dop Satellite RFP #P1061 Integrators, Inc February 23, 2007 As each service element comes on-line during the Pilot Test, it will remain on-line at the conclusion of the test and be operated in parallel by the Dispatch Center with the other elements that are already operational The same will hold true for the activated functionalities of the project technologies mentioned above Due to the linear approach of the project plan, if any of the elements fail during testing, further elements cannot be deployed until the problem has been resolved At the conclusion of each formal testing phase, RSI will provide the CLIENT with written certification of the test results and performance compliance for each of the system components In the event of testing problems, the CLIENT, RSI and the appropriate agencies will meet and confer on the results of the testing performed Subsequent decisions to proceed with the project must be approved by all parties including the RSI AVL Oversight Committee All the participants must attend scheduled meetings through means of conference calls or on -site visitations Also, final details of the Laboratory, Pilot and Acceptance Tests will be confirmed with the Stakeholders before implementation of the testing in order to ensure the customer service level does not degrade below current service levels during the testing process Finally, in addition to the above formal testing procedures, upon RSI's issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, there will be a comprehensive demonstration of the operating system to CLIENT Tlus demonstration (Acceptance Test) is necessary in order to satisfy the parties that Substantial Completion has been achieved Acceptance Testing There are two fundamental aspects to the Acceptance Testing — functional and operational The functionality of the RSI AVL System will have been completely tested by the Pilot and Full Deployment Test phases of the project To a lesser extent, the ability of the user to change the operational parameters in order to change the service provided will have also been demonstrated As a consequence, the Acceptance Test is largely a confirmation of the functional requirements listed in Appendix -I, and a stress / full loading test of the operation as the service parameters are changed based upon real time public demand Because of the inherent inability to predict the need for service changes, it is only by observing the system over a period of time that we can be reasonably assured that all the possible combinations and scenarios have been considered During the Acceptance Testing the performance of the System will also be evaluated, with regard to the ability of the system to respond in a timely and efficient manner to the CLIENT oversight and customer requests
