tendering procedure
I am currently translating some background information on a tendering procedure which deals with frequency allocation and terrestrial digital broadcasting. The above term is referred to several times. Moreover, the following sentence is stated:
"Der Bewerber hat zu beschreiben, welchen Versorgungsgrad der Bevölkerung er zu erreichen gedenkt."
I considered translating the above term as "supply obligation" since "obligation to supply" rather refers to "Lieferpflicht".
Thanks in advance for any hint or help.

coverage obligation
Not a term often used, though there are a number of entries in Google concerning the broadcasting area of television/radio companies.
I think this is the best fit as commitment is slightly weak for Pflicht.

broadcast reach
es geht ja hier darum, wie viele zuhörer-/schauer erreicht werden
Note from asker:
| Schon, aber der Bewerber ist verpflichtet, bestimmte Anteile der Bevölkerung mit den Netzwerken und Rundfunkdiensten zu versorgen. Deshalb müssen die Worte "Versorgung" und "Pflicht" auf jeden Fall korrekt übersetzt werden. |

Note from asker:
| Thank you, Stephen. "Versorgungsgrad" is not the problem, but "Versorgungspflicht". How might this term be translated without having to use 20 lines to write it down? |

coverage commitment
Might do the job, although it gets only a small number of google hits in relevant contexts.
