About

Department for Education awarded a contract to Edge Testing Solutions Limited for Quality Assurance and Testing Services under RM3810 Lot 4: Functional Testing, valued at AUD 2,450,000.

The contract supports Data, Digital and Technology (DDaT) projects across the DfE and operates as a call-off arrangement, with services requested via individual Statements of Work (SOW) as needed.

It provides access to a flexible and cost-effective pool of test specialist professionals, bought 'as a service', capable of delivering services across the full life-cycle of projects or design processes.

The contract ensures continuity of testing services across DDaT, on-going reliability in the provision of testing services, and a means for individual work requests to be used to request testing specialists.

Individual project teams remain responsible for demonstrating their own business cases, arranging appropriate spend controls, and following agreed governance and assurance frameworks to call-off any services required to support delivery of their projects.
