(tool's) adherence
The current context indicates that "at this moment, it's very important to be able to make a technical assessment of the availability of professional experts in the tool at least for the next five years". If these experts are available, then the tool will have adherence. At least, that's what I understood.
Example in English:
"He explains that the key factors of choice were adherence to the needs of service sales processes to the numerous possibilities for improvements in customer collaboration. Also noteworthy is the tool’s adherence to event management without the need for major development efforts, the possibility of integration with other databases and the ease of future integration with relationship portals." - http://moldsoft.com.br/blog/en/embraer-2/

Clarifying:
If experts are available, then there will be adherence since they will make sure employees know how to use the tool. In other words, there's no point in investing on this tool unless there are pros who can train other people on its use.

As I see it, by aderencia da ferramenta, they are questioning if the software will be consistent with today's advances in the field. They need to verify if they will be purchasing something that could be updated if necessary or if they will be purchasing some outdated tool that will be impossible to update or even fix it if it has any problem for lack of engineers trained in its language.

In light of concerns over cost, the data illustrated that tool uptake was higher where grant funding was provided.
