4.0 On-boarding PlanThe project plan, resource loading plan and the timelines are mentioned in the project plan document attached in the Appendix
5.0 AssumptionsConsultant has made the following assumptions while preparing this SOW. Variations to these assump-tions may have a direct impact on the effort, cost and the agreed upon service levels and hence may be handled through the change control process.
Common Assumptions1 The scope of the project as defined in the In-Scope section of this SOW.2 Company will provide necessary and adequate infrastructure to enable Consultant to fulfill its commit-
ment for the assignment. This will be applicable for each TCS consultant located at Company’s premises and will be arranged for and provided at no cost to Consultant. The infrastructure includes office space, computers/terminals and required software, computer consumables and communication facilities.
3 Company will nominate single point of contact for TCS consultants who will be responsible for setting up the meetings, provide access to environment, test data, clarification of queries, acceptance of doc-ument and software, etc.
4 Resource Management and work allocation will be sole authority of the TCS. However in instances of disagreement if any would be mutually resolved between SPE and TCS.
5 Consultant will not be responsible for any impact caused due to 3 rd party Software, documentation shortcomings and/or defects. However, Consultant will assist Company in finding workable alterna-tives.
6 SPE will be responsible for ensuring that complete documentation is made available to TCS in cases where other Vendor(s) have developed specific Documentation for SPE.
7 SPE will ensure coordination with business users and third party vendors for timely closure of all tech-nical/functional issues raised by TCS. Any delay due to same may impact the cost and schedule of the project.
8 SPE will ensure timely response and participation from other support teams wherever any issue needs to be jointly analyzed and resolved.
9 SPE will allow for a lead time of at least 3 weeks to increase or decrease resources based on the scope amendments after discussions and mutual agreement between SPE and TCS
10 Detailed functional specification documents and/ or use cases to be provided within the mutually agreed timeframe. Any delay in this may impact the overall schedule and cost and will be going through change control process.
11 Reviews and signoffs by Company (IT or Business) will be provided within mutually agreed timeframe as defined in the project plan. Any delay in this may impact the overall schedule and cost and will be going through change control process.

Please refer to the Functionality – Use case mapping sheet in Appendix 1 for the traceability matrix with the complexity level information.
The above is the use case list as of current date of Nov 29, 2011. The latest use case list can also be found in the following link of Company’s RPM share point folder.

2 RPM will share the same database as ITSM and other related applications.3 Data from the GPMS will be obtained by existing replication process; this estimation does not con-
sider any additional interface with GPMS.4 There are no changes to the related interfaces. [e.g. PRISM, Interplan]5 This estimation assumes that Budget Forecasting will be developed from scratch.6 Data mart design is same and there is no change to Data mart for avails calculation7 Estimation doesn’t consider efforts for screen developments for master data set up. e.g. Territory -
station relationship8 Prototype to be provided by SPE. The .css provided by SPE would be used for the look and feel of
the application screens. Any modification to the css and the ensuring browser compatibility of the same will be done by SPE.
9 Functional Specifications will be available for the list of use cases for all the requirements10 User Manual Preparation will be carried out by SPE11 If the number of screens exceeds the number in the prototype, (which are based on the use cases),
the variance would need to be addressed through the change control mechanism.

Project Level Reporting and Monitoring
The project will be monitored according to the project plan which will be refined as the project progresses.
Project plan changes would need to be concurred upon both by TCS and SPE and the changes would need to be signed off.
Reporting of the progress of the project, on a weekly basis, would be by TCS project manager to SPE project manager basis the signed off project plan.
Monthly performance reviews will be held with SPE Delivery Lead. TCS will report the monthly metrics on cost, quality and schedule during this meeting. The detail metrics will be available to the SPE project managers, upon request.
Any significant problems and risks shall be communicated immediately to the SPE Project Manager and would be discussed in detail in the next immediate meeting that would be scheduled.
TCS will recommend preventive actions or mitigations in case of issues and risks. Each Phase would follow the standard SDLC cycle with defined requirements, design
construction and UT periods. Slippage on any of these as per the signed of project plan would require immediate highlighting and control mechanism would need to be exercised.
TCS will present following data in the weekly status report• Estimated Effort: cumulative total hours estimated for the tasks for the given period• Actual Effort: cumulative total hours actually expended for the tasks for the given period• Rework Effort: cumulative total hours expended correcting documented defects or

Escalation Mechanism
Issues between SPE and TCS that may arise need to be resolved at various levels of the management. Such issues which may arise at a particular project level, which could be either technical or managerial in nature. They may involve issues regarding slippage of scope, effort, cost or schedule. TCS intends to highlight and resolve all such issues through the procedures agreed upon at the joint governance meetings.
TCS and SPE will report any problem or issue to their counterparts.
TCS proposes the following high-level escalation resolution process:
Acknowledgement of Escalation TCS and SPE will report any problem or issue to their counterparts at the same level. These issues will be resolved at the project manager level. If the issue is not resolved at that level in the agreed time frame, then it may be escalated to Delivery Lead level. In case of disagreement, it will be escalated to TCS and SPE higher management. The timeframes for issue escalation will be mutually agreed with SPE. Any issue reported will be acknowledged.
Causal Analysis and Recommendation For all escalations, TCS will carry out causal analysis to determine the root cause of the issue. Also, proper recommendations will be suggested by the TCS team to prevent variance in project outcomes.
Resolution and Monitoring The TCS and SPE will work to identify the solution to the problem and implement the necessary changes to resolve the issue.

7.0 Change ControlAlthough Consultant expects that the requirements will not change significantly during the various phases of this engagement, some changes may occur over its life cycle. Some of these changes may be minor while others may have a significant impact on efforts and schedules. Any delay in the review and feedback can affect the schedule and pricing and will be taken through change control process.
In order to handle such situations smoothly, Consultant suggests a Change Control procedure, which will allow either Company or Consultant to initiate a change request at any point during the life cycle of this SOW. The impact of each change on the effort, cost, and schedule of this SOW, and on other modules of the application will be assessed.
Request for changes will be processed using a Change Request Form, which will describe the change, the impact on the existing schedule and cost of this SOW and the potential additional effort and cost to this SOW as a result of the change. The changes will be implemented only after approval from Company. For an effective control on changes it is suggested that a priority level be decided for each of the change requests. This priority level will be mutually determined by Company and Consultant. Consultant team will maintain an up-to-date log of all change requests. The log will also contain the status of the change, to whom it was assigned, what changes were done, when it was released etc. This document can be used later as reference for completeness check.
The total baseline efforts for each functionality has been shown in the Functionality – Use case mapping sheet attached in Appendix 1 and will be reviewed on a timely basis in case of any changes in scope.
In case of any delay either due to requirement delay or dependencies on SPE to start the Sprint then the project will be charged as per the Weekly Burn Chart attached in the Appendix 3.
In these kind of delays both the Company and Consultant will have the dialogue and accordingly take a collective decision to carry out the various Sprint activities in parallel and also increase the resource loading to cover up the schedule delays.
8.0 Staff Approval ProcessPrior to assigning Consultant staff to Company, Consultant will provide Company with proposed staff resumes and other information about the members, and Company will have the right to approve them. If Company objects in good faith to the proposed assignment, Consultant shall propose other individuals to meet Company staffing requirements.
During the contract period, if Company determines in good faith that the continued assignment of one or more of the Consultant personnel is not in the best interests of Company (due to poor staff performance) and as such requests replacement of such person(s), Consultant will replace that person(s) with another person(s) of suitable ability and qualifications per the staff approval process described above within 2 weeks for offshore Consultant personnel and 4 weeks for onsite Consultant personnel.
