Summary:
ECMWF as the Entrusted Entity for the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) invites tenders for implementation of the Evaluation and Quality Control (EQC) function for the C3S Climate Data Store (CDS).
The successful tenderer shall be responsible for the evaluation of the quality and the provision of quality assurance information to users of the CDS, including its technical infrastructure, data catalogue, and toolbox.
The purpose of the EQC function in C3S is to provide quality assurance information for all C3S products and services as well as to ensure that users have the information they need in order to use the products and services for their own purposes. The EQC function also keeps track of user requirements and informs ECMWF about gaps, limitations and shortcomings in products and service delivery. C3S users include scientists, consultants, planners and the policy-makers, the media and the general public. The aim of this tender is to verify that the C3S Climate Data Store is fit for the purpose and to ensure that it remains so.
