training as specified has been completed, and correction of all
outstanding deficiencies has been satisfactorily completed. If
the CCTV system is being installed in conjunction with an ESS, the
CCTV performance verification test shall be run simultaneously
with the ESS performance verification test. The Contractor shall
provide one operator to operate the system 24 hours per day,
including weekends and holidays, during Phase I and Phase III
endurance testing, in addition to any government personnel that
may be made available. The Government may terminate testing at
any time the system fails to perform as specified. Upon

Phase II. During the last day of the test the Contractor shall
verify the operation of each camera. Upon successful completion
of the endurance test, the Contractor shall deliver test reports
and other documentation as specified to the Government prior to

Phase I (Testing): The test shall be conducted 24 hours per day
for 15 consecutive calendar days, including holidays, and the
system shall operate as specified. The Contractor shall make no
repairs during this phase of testing unless authorized by the
Government in writing. If the system experiences no failures
during Phase I testing, the Contractor may proceed directly to
Phase III testing after receipt by the Contractor of written
permission from the Government.
c.
Phase II (Assessment): After the conclusion of Phase I, the
Contractor shall identify all failures, determine causes of all
failures, repair all failures, and deliver a written report to the

meeting, the Government will determine the restart date, or may
require that Phase I be repeated. If the retest is completed
without any failures, the Contractor may proceed directly to Phase
III testing after receipt by the Contractor of written permission
