•  The regime in place to ensure adherence to minimum prescribed maintenance frequencies in PS2

•  The methodology showing how the results of such monitoring or scouting will be fed into the Bidder's management information system in a convenient form, and how that information will be used in calculating any Adjustments to the Unitary Charge under the Payment Mechanism.
