The first phase of joint regional testing (Full Integration Testing - FIT) finished successfully on 13 January 2022. The next phase of the testing (Simulation Integration Testing – SIT) has started on 17th January 2022 and is expected to run until the end of February 2022. After the test performed in the course of January and the alignment with external parties (SDAC), the project parties can now confirm that the new go-live date will be 20th April 2022 (trading day for delivery on 21st April 2022).
