SECTION 2 - INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND The LabTech Gold Implementation is designed to get a new LabTech Partner up and running with their new software as quickly as possible utilizing LabTech’s Best Practices. This project will provide instruction on the basic operations and configurations to use LabTech. The goal is to get your new LabTech server installed, configured and running with all necessary components to provide a solid, proven foundation with LabTech agents deployed to your clients before the end of the consulting project. In addition, it is LabTech Software’s intention to have instructed and demonstrated the software’s most commonly used features to the point that the partner is comfortable performing the basic functions on their own. At LabTech Software, we believe that providing outstanding professional services should be an integral part of our company’s offering. Your success is also our success, so we make every effort to provide efficient and affordable professional services through expert trainers and consultants to help you fast-track your investment in the LabTech RMM platform.

Statement Of Work

Rev. Date: 6/28/16

A subnetwork, or subnet, is a logically visible subdivision of an IP network. The practice of dividing a network into two or more networks is called subnetting. All computers that belong to a subnet are addressed with a common, identical, most-significant bit-group in their IP address. A Managed Service Provider (MSP) is a person or organization that accepts and provides managed services. Managed services is the practice of outsourcing day-to-day IT management responsibilities as a strategic method for improving operations. This can include outsourcing production support and lifecycle build/maintenance activities. The person or organization that owns or has direct oversight of the organization or system being managed is referred to as the client or customer. This term refers to you the customer, your entity in its entirety. In some instances, this may be the technical lead assigned by the corporation to this project, the corporation itself, or any corporate resource(s). For the purposes of this Scope of Work, the project start date is the date of your scheduled kick-off meeting with your LabTech Software consultant. Professional Services Automation software (PSA) is designed to assist professionals such as lawyers, auditors, IT consultants and other professionals with project management and resource management for client projects. These features are often integrated with accounting, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems and payroll systems in order to improve efficiency of overall operations. Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a proprietary protocol developed by Microsoft® which provides a user with a graphical interface to another computer over a network connection. The user employs RDP client software for this purpose, while the other computer must run RDP server software. RDP is a secure method of access when properly configured and uses RSA’s RC4 encryption cypher. Microsoft has a number of articles on how to properly configure RDP for secure access. Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) is a collection of information technology tools that are loaded to client workstations and servers. These tools gather information regarding the applications and hardware operating in the client’s location, as well as supply activity reports to the IT service provider, allowing them to resolve any issues. RMM usually provides a set of IT management tools such as trouble ticket tracking, remote desktop monitoring and support and user information through a complete interface. A Statement Of Work (SOW) is a formal document that captures and defines the work activities, deliverables and timeline a vendor must execute in performance of specified work for a client.
