English term

UCM

English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general)
Hello everyone,
I am wondering if you can help me with this term.
The context is a commercial proposal offered by a French company to supply software and hardware products. The proposal is written in English and includes a detailed pricing table. UCM is the title of one of the table's columns, and below it, the following is listed:
Engineer
Courses
EAC
Set
Can anyone please help me understand what does it stand for?
Thank you all in advance.

@ Yvonne Gallaghar
Thank you for your help. The client has finally answered me. It was a typo. The correct abbreviation was UOM. That is why the various explanations didn't fit with the context!
Yvonne Gallagher Jul 24, 2019:
well, "set", both as a noun and verb, has lots of different meanings. I can't see the context you have so can't tell you what it means here as I don't even know if it's a verb or noun. Just have a look at some of the definitions with examples of the verb... https://www.macmillandictionary.com/dictionary/british/set_1

That was my first guess, but I did't see how it fits with the word "set" (which corresponds to the warranty offered).

maybe Universal Content Management then?

I don't think it is the university. My guess is, it is some qualification prerequisite to operate the equipment.
Yvonne Gallagher Jul 24, 2019:
are you sure it's not the university (UCM name in Spanish) since it's offering courses below the heading?
OR University of Central Missouri??
