UNQORK AGILE FRAMEWORK:
Unqork will utilize the Unqork Agile Framework (“UAF”) in its performance under this SOW. The UAF consists of the following phases and activities:
Kickoff – This phase formally introduces the Customer team to Unqork’s project leadership team. A certified engagement manager, a senior solutions architect, and an application engineer lead will manage the project while the Unqork’s client partner and customer success manager will share knowledge on industry best practices. Unqork will utilize this meeting to provide an in-depth walk through of the UAF, define roles and responsibilities, establish the governance structure, meetings schedule, communication plan, and align with Customer on the scope of the Professional Services and/or Use Case. Customer’s key stakeholders shall participate in the meeting to provide input on success criteria, key objectives, and critical Requirements. At this meeting, Unqork expects Customer to provide user stories, functional and non-functional Requirements/user stories, user personas, brand style guidelines, wireframes, data dictionary, API/Integration requirements, and any business process flows.
Discovery – Following Kickoff, Unqork and the Customer will begin a series of deep dive discovery sessions to understand the Customer’s business and requirements, to be reflected in the preparation and drafting of baseline Use Case features, functions and architecture. These sessions are led by the certified engagement manager, solution architect, lead application engineer, and UX Designer and will allow Unqork to identify user personas, document the functionality, key system integrations, architecture of the Use Case and confirm alignment with Customer’s Requirements. The information collected in these sessions will allow Unqork to create lo-fi wireframes and the technical artifacts, which includes solution architecture, business process architecture, data model and dictionary, RBAC diagram and integration specification(s). Once the Requirements of the Use Case are agreed with the Customer, the detailed project plan is finalized, including the delivery timeline for the Use Case.
Build | UAT – Following conclusion of the Discovery phase, Unqork begins configuration and implementation iteratively utilizing the principles of agile software development.
Unqork follows generally accepted industry practices for unit testing, manual and automated quality assurance, performance testing, and configuration reviews to configure the Use Case with a focus on quality while meeting the timelines set forth in the project plan established at the end of Discovery. Customers will have full visibility into the Use Case development lifecycle and the opportunity to participate in live demonstrations to evaluate the development and functionality of the Use Case.
Throughout this phase, components of the Use Case will be completed and available for Customer to conduct user acceptance testing after each sprint demo. Defects (as defined in Appendix 4) in the Use Case identified by Unqork and/or the Customer will be defined, logged, and determine resolution path prior to completion of this phase. This phase will also identify future enhancements, associated priorities, and the post-launch enhancement schedule. Customers conduct user acceptance testing (for the period set forth in Appendix 1) in a secure staging, non-production environment. Upon the conclusion of user acceptance testing, Customer will deliver to Unqork written acceptance of the Use Case or provide written notice stating with specificity as to why the Use Case or such or portion(s) of the Use Case are not acceptable to Customer. If Unqork does not receive acceptance or rejection from Customer by the end of this acceptance testing period, then Company shall be deemed to have accepted such Use Case or portion(s) of the Use Case.
Go Live – The Use Case will be promoted from the staging environment to production and Customer shall conduct end to end user acceptance testing of the Use Case (for the period set forth in Appendix 1). Upon the conclusion of such user acceptance testing, Customer will deliver to Unqork written acceptance of the Use Case or provide written notice stating with specificity as to why the Use Case or such or portion(s) of the Use Case are not acceptable to Customer. If Unqork does not receive acceptance or rejection from Customer by the end of this acceptance testing period, then Company shall be deemed to have accepted the Use Case. Upon Customer’s written direction, the Use Case will be available for use in Customer’s GovCloud Production Environment (the “Go-Live Date”). Thereafter, Unqork’s team will monitor the deployment into production and Customers will be provided with applicable Documentation, training and user guides with respect to the Use Case.
Hypercare Support – For a period of no more than thirty (30) days following the Go-Live Date (the “Hypercare Period”), on a time and materials basis, Unqork will resolve Defects (as defined in Appendix 4) in the Use Case that are identified during the Hypercare Period by Customer.
If Customer encounters an issue with the operation of the Use Case during the Hypercare Period, Customer shall provide written notice to Unqork, including the following information:
Upon the receipt of such written notice, Unqork and the Customer shall diagnose such issue. If it is determined that such issue is a Defect, Unqork shall remediate such Defect in coordination with Customer.
If Customer requests in writing (1) that Unqork correct an issue not (a) caused by a Defect in the Use Case; (b) attributable to the fault of Unqork; and/or (c) caused by the Unqork Systems, or (2) an enhancement to Requirements set forth in the Scope of Services section of the applicable Order and/or this SOW, as applicable, then Customer shall negotiate a Change Order to this SOW or separate SOW to perform the work necessary to resolve such issue.
For the avoidance of doubt, (1) enhancements to the Use Case and (2) additional remediation of Defects following the Hypercare Period shall be rendered pursuant to a separate SOW or a Change Order to this SOW. Any scope changes to the Requirements set forth above following the Completion Date shall be performed pursuant to a separate SOW and/or Change order.
Appendix 4
DEFECT
A “Defect” means an error or flaw in a feature or function of the Use Case resulting in functionality and/or performance of such Use Case that deviates from the Requirements set forth in this SOW.
If Unqork determines that an issue is (i) not a Defect in the Use Case, (ii) caused by Customer (whether a Designer User or an End User, or (iii) an Enhancement (as defined below), Unqork and Customer shall mutually agree as to a Change Order or a separate SOW to perform the Professional Services necessary to remediate the issue.

SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT; SUPPORT
Availability Requirement | Service Availability Credits |
The Unqork Systems shall be Available 99.9% of the time during each Service Period, excluding Exceptions. | No Service Availability Credits will be given for any Service Period in which the actual Availability of the Unqork Systems equals or exceeds the Availability Requirement during such Service Period. Customer is entitled to a Service Availability Credit of 1% of the Fees payable during the Service Period for each 0.1% by which actual uptime is less than the Availability Requirement, such credit not to exceed 50% in any Service Period. |
If Customer’s support request does not include the above information, Unqork shall request such additional information and Unqork’s response relating to such support ticket, as described in the chart below, may be delayed.
Provided that Customer has included all information as required above, Unqork shall diagnose and reasonably assign a priority to the noted problem. If it is determined by Unqork that said problem is a Service Error, Unqork shall correct said Service Error. If it is determined that said problem is not a Service Error nor otherwise caused by Unqork, Unqork shall advise Customer. If Customer requests in writing that Unqork correct such problem that is not a Service Error nor otherwise caused by Unqork, Customer shall negotiate a SOW with Unqork to perform the work necessary to resolve such problem. In addition, in the event that the Customer requires upgrade testing and support, data reconciliation assistance, assistance to correct user entry errors, or disaster recovery assistance, Unqork shall, if so requested by Customer in writing, assist the Customer with the diagnosis and, if possible, the correction of said problems, the Parties will negotiate a SOW for Professional Services to remedy the problem. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “error” or “defect” or “problem” means a failure of the Unqork Systems to operate in accordance with its Specifications. Support tickets opened and assigned a service level impact determined by Unqork to not match the descriptions and severity defined here may be adjusted to reflect the actual impact appropriate for the issue; a notification email of an impact severity adjustment will be sent to the request/reporter of the original ticket.
Service Error Severity Level | Description | Example | Target Response Time to Customer (Standard Support) |
