 The TVGF Upgrade shall make use of the TGVF IOV infrastructure, unless the
Contractor elects not to do so because he can provide the same functionality and performance within the requested time frame.
 Six Work packages have been identified in order to allow the TGVF Upgrade to provide the requested functionality and performance.

The TVF requires some upgrades but needs to be operated immediately as of the
KO in a Service Level Agreement (SLA) regime. After the upgrades have been completed, the TVF will be operated in a tightened SLA.
 The OVF shall be operated as of the KO in a SLA regime.
 The Core Infrastructure needs to be updated, but needs as well to be operated immediately as of the KO. There is no SLA defined for the Core Infrastructure, even though its performance during all phases of Operations shall be monitored routinely and subject to review.

Work Package 1: TGVF Prime. This work package covers the activities to be performed at TGVF System level to ensure a consistent Design, Development, Verification, Validation,
Deployment, Operations and Maintenance of the TVF, OVF and
Core Infrastructure.
Work Package 2 : TVF Service Level Agreement (TVF SLA).
This work package covers the upgrade of TVF to generate timing products as necessary for provision of Galileo OS and
PRS SiS. This work package covers also the delivery of these identified products for which the definition of a Service Level
Agreement is appropriate. These products are well defined and described in GMS-GTSP. This work package includes finally the Site Hosting and Network Internal and External Services for the TVF. Note that this includes provision of data by UTC laboratories to TVF under similar SLA conditions as the TVF towards Galileo.

Work Package 3 : OVF Service Level Agreement (OVF SLA).
This work package covers the delivery of well identified products for which the definition of a Service Level Agreement is sufficient for the purposes of the Galileo System. This applies to OVF geodetic products as necessary for provision of Galileo
OS and PRS SiS. These products are well defined and described in GMS-GRSP ICD. This work package also includes the Site Hosting and Network Internal and External Services for the OVF.

 Work Package 4 : Core Infrastructure development, integration and validation. This work package covers the upgrade of the Core Infrastructure, which will be performed based on [AD.2] requirements to upgrade the sensor station to receive Galileo FOC1 signals, ensure review of the algorithms and ensure software development to tailored DAL-E level or equivalent.
 Work Package 5 : Core Infrastructure Operations. This work package covers:
 Extension of operations of the Core Infrastructure part which is hosted at ESA/ESTEC (DSF, DMZ,
DQF, DPAF, DPS, ESTEC GESS)
 Operations of the set of Galileo Experimental
Sensor Stations part of the Core Infrastructure at their current locations

The TVF/OVF Service Level Agreement regime consists of:
 The provision of services (i.e. signals and reports) with accuracy, frequency, latency and availability in accordance with the Requirement Specification

The delivery of Key Performance Indicators to demonstrate that the accuracy, frequency, latency and availability requirements are routinely met

A provision such that the failure to perform as specified shall result in the application of Service Credits as specified in the SoW and in the Contract
The set of Key Performance Indicators shall be established by the Contractor and agreed by ESA for
TVF/OVF at the Kick Off as follows:
 The list of signals to be delivered is defined in the SOW

Measurable performance parameters related the accuracy, frequency, latency and availability to these signals shall be established according to the Requirement Specification
 The measurable performance parameters shall be computed routinely and reviewed at each Quarterly
Review


At every Quarterly Review, the Contractor shall be authorised to charge the Agency for the Services delivered in the SLA in accordance to the following:
 the Normalised KPI (i.e. the unweighted average of the KPIs normalised with respect to their respective
Requirement Specification values) shall be computed
 ranges for the normalised KPI shall be as defined in the Contract
 the Service charge per Quarter shall be defined as three times the monthly price of the TVF/OVF SLA work package related to the provision of the signals defined in the SOW
 the Agency shall be given a Service Credit (i.e. a reduction on the Service charge) corresponding to the range achieved by the Normalised KPI as defined in the Contract
The OVF KPIs level are defined at the KOM. The TVF KPIs are defined at the KOM and redefined (tightened) at the AR)
