Client-Virtualization Proof of Concept

CV_POC v3.0 3

1. Proposal Overview Customer is looking to leverage a Virtual Infrastructure to reduce costs and has requested the execution of a Proof of Concept (POC) to identify if they can leverage the inherent benefits of a virtualization platform.

The POC parameters include the following: Deployment of a single (1) Image for a Client Virtualization technology defined by the Customer

o Deployed into a non-production, test environment o Period of up to twenty-five (25) days

Define up to four (4) Applications to be run on the Image Test User group will have no more than four (4) participants during the period of this POC. Define and execute specific tasks to assess the viability for this potential solution.

Customer requested changes, alterations or customizations considered ‘out of scope’ to this SOW must follow the Change Order process defined in Section 7. Additional fees and expenses required to complete the Change Order is in Section 3.

2. Our ‘Lifecycle’ Approach Partner executes each engagement with a structured ‘Lifecycle’ methodology that defines the roles, responsibilities, objectives and expected outcomes which is to ultimately prove the validity of the solution design to enable full deployment of a Customer’s Client Virtualization solution.

There is constant review of all previously accepted information with the Customer as we execute this ’Lifecycle’ methodology to ensure the facts still hold true as this SOW progresses. This methodology allows us to assure our Customer achieves and even exceeds their goals through appropriate adjustments during the execution of this SOW that minimizes any “surprises” in either scope or cost that plague many services engagements.

Upon the initiation of this engagement, the engineer(s) map the phase review meetings to calendar dates for both parties to approve during the initial project planning exercise. Communication and expectation are the most important success factors.

Please note that once the approved SOW in the midst of execution, that the adding/deleting/changing of defined tasks requires the Change Order process as defined in Section 7 prior to the initiation of services; in or out of scope. Any changes could, but not necessarily, require additional costs to the overall project and is subject to Customer approval.

3. Investment This project will include project management, all the scoped deliverables defined in Section 5 of this SOW, executed using best practices.

Remote execution of all SOW defined services will keep project costs lower unless otherwise defined in this SOW. As there may be a requirement for on-site visitation to the single customer location, the Customer upon project completion, pays all travel expenses for these services at cost. If required, we can provide an estimation of reasonable expenditures.

4. Professional Business References for Completed Services Upon successful completion and with the Customer satisfied with the results of this engagement, we humbly request their participation in the Customer Reference Program. The design of this reference program is to allow Customers to discuss the positive attributes of their engagement in a format they are most comfortable.

Many companies have rules and restrictions regarding public references so we have many different reference levels in which to participate that meet many of the restrictions today. The levels are:

Reference Type Description Personal Reference Willing to be an occasional anonymous reference; will talk with prospect

Reference Quotation How We addressed your business challenges and results achieved Anonymous Reference Use as illustrated reference in a Customer sales presentation

Sales Reference call Participate in a call with a Prospective client Case Study Interview with writer, review and approve the final published Success Story

5. Client Virtualization Assessment Service Features Our Client Virtualization POC will help enable your current infrastructure, identify the technology changes required for your current environment, plan those changes that will better enable cost controls and enhance performance. As every environment is different, so each POC is a one of a kind, custom engagement requiring the plan and execution of our Lifecycle methodology.

The Partner, through its employees or agents, shall provide to Customer the services described as follows. These services are inclusive of the scope of this SOW. Any additional services, requested or deemed necessary, require a mutually executed Change Order (Attachment A) prior to the initiation of such out-of-scope services.

5.1 Phase 1: Project Planning In the event that a Partner Assessment was completed, results, recommendations and a conversation regarding the POC timeline was completed. Then that POC Timeline document will be the starting point for all conversations in this Project Planning Phase 1 in which we will define a plan to implement an appropriate POC tailored to the environment and will serve as the starting point for any future Pilot and Deployment project work.

A Certified Virtualization Sales representative or engineer will conduct this meeting to gain consensus on success criteria, set expectations for all services, confirm completed pre-installation checklist and all prerequisites for service that need to be addressed based on best practices, during this POC.

A meeting with all Parties will be performed at a mutually agreed upon time during normal weekday business hours of 8:00 am to 5:00 pm in the appropriate time zone.

The following defines the general methodology to make this an effective planning meeting for all parties. Define key stakeholders

o Set date and time for discussions Discuss and define

o Customizations or special requests o Changes or alterations to the Assumptions / Deliverables o Customer Reference potential after successful engagement

Perform interviews with IT staff o Confirm all applications are win7/XP compatible o Domain credentials and LAN Topology; access to remote sites will be identified o Workflow on systems Critical business times

o Review network considerations Proxies, firewalls, VLAN’s, WAN interfaces
