ANNEX A

SPECIFICATION

The Software offers an analytics tool to assess Customer and/or Authorised Third Party User server, infrastructure and application data for trends with a view to aiding and speeding the Customer’s or Authorised Third Party User's decision-making and end to end project management process regarding application migration and modernisation. The Software will act as a storage and processing database for any data inputted by the Customer and / or any Authorised Third Party User.

The effectiveness of the analytics tool is dependent on the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the Customer data which is inputted onto the database within the Software and the Customer and/or Authorised Third Party Users are expected to verify any resultant outputs for their suitability for use within the Customer’s or Authorised Third Party Users' specific environment. The Software is not business-critical.

The Software deployment comprises a set of containers retrieved using a time-limited access token from the Vendor's repository and requires a MongoDB database. Access to the Software user interface is via a compatible modern web browser.
