- What does 'back-stopping' mean?
(A description of the support facilities (back-stopping) that the contractor and his team will have during the execution of the contract)
- Your document pretty much defines it as support facilities and then puts this equivalent colloquialism in parentheses.
In this case, they are using a bit of license (not much) with a word that is already a metaphor. They use it to mean that capability that they have to support or back-up (stand behind) their activities in relation to the execution of their responsibilities.

neutral  Daryo: savetodavna podrška – da, ali ne u smislu "držaćemo vas stalno za ručicu" nego "ako niko i ništa drugo ne može da vam pomogne, naša je podrška zagarantovana" // to nekako treba dodati

garancija o otkupu akcija/deonica


Explanation:
A back stop is a guarantee between a financial institution and the company for which it issues shares. The agreement assures companies that any shares of stock left unsold during the initial public offering will be bought by the financial institution. For example, say a company decides to sell $40 million US Dollars (USD) during its IPO. If $7 million USD of the stock remains unsold after the IPO process, the financial institution underwriting the sale must purchase the $7 million USD according to the back stop agreement.

disagree  Daryo: "back stop" jeste podrška/pomoć kada sve drugo otkaže (nešto kao poslednja linija odbrane ili rezervni padobran) – dobra ilustracija ali u pogrešnom kontekstu - izvornik nije o prodaji novoemitovanih akcija nego o pružanju usluga
