• Measurement and data processing of power information
• Nett Warrior connector compatibility

Exclusions

• Prolonged data analysis
• Equipment updates or upgrades
• Adaptors required for non-compatible equipment (responsibility of the system under test)
• Operating costs for the equipment (a secondary activity for personnel already engaged in the projects under test)

1. Technical Requirements

• Must measure power draw from a battery source to a connected portable system
• Must be compatible with Nett Warrior connectors
• Must export data at Official classification

Acceptance Criteria

Upon delivery, a brief trial of each item will be conducted, including monitoring of power used by a representative system, followed by upload of data to a standalone laptop. Successful completion of this trial will constitute acceptance and clearance for use in future activities.

Acceptance criteria include successful power measurement recording, accurate data export, and successful data transfer to standard computer systems via USB interface.

How to Apply

Interested suppliers should register their interest by contacting Unite Procurement UK Limited and provide details of their product range, technical specifications, and delivery capabilities.
