SECTION 2 - INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND The business objective of the partner is to begin using the LabTech server in a hosted environment and acquire the basic skills to manage their Clients’ computers through this system. The goal is to demonstrate the appropriate LabTech server instance configurations for agent deployment and computer management. 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.

SECTION 3 - COMMITMENTS Our Commitment to You LabTech Software will provide you with a team to ensure the successful completion of the project. This includes coordinators from the Welcome Team for scheduling as well as experienced, qualified LabTech Software consultants to perform the services purchased. LabTech Software will ensure that resources are available to complete the work tasks and hold the meetings per the project timeline. LabTech Software will provide all deliverables described in this Statement of Work (SOW). LabTech Software will provide written communication and documents through the project communications ticket. LabTech Software will make all efforts to keep to the project schedule and milestone projections. Occasionally an emergency circumstance, communications or technical issue may interfere with a scheduled meeting; in those cases, we will notify you as soon as possible if a need to reschedule should arise. LabTech Software will provide a method of feedback for each consultation session. Your Commitment to Us Provide a LabTech administrator as the primary contact who will be responsible for the project in your company. Complete the LabTech 101 online in the LabTech University or participate in qualified training (e.g. LabTech LTCP Certification training). Complete the Discovery Document (where applicable) fully to the best of your abilities and return it to the LabTech Welcome Team coordinator. This Discovery Document includes the necessary PSA and ScreenConnect details that need to be set prior to the initial meeting with your LabTech Software consultant. Read through the documents we send you and ask questions if there is anything you do not understand. Providing feedback through returning surveys is appreciated. Provide ample time for the project primary contact at your facility to keep their meetings with the LabTech Software consultant and to complete the project requirements. When able, please provide one (1) business day notice to reschedule any meeting. We understand that emergency circumstances come up as is the nature of the IT services business and one day advance notice is not always possible. Missed meetings are defined as being absent from a scheduled GoToMeeting™ by 15 minutes or more after the start time without notifying LabTech in advance. If two (2) meetings are missed, then the project will be placed “On Hold” and be rescheduled depending upon availability. Alternatively, missing the same session two (2) times may constitute as a desire to opt out of that session and it will be cancelled; the next consulting session will be scheduled in lieu of the missed one. Rescheduled meetings: The LabTech Software consultants’ time is scheduled out weeks in advance and their time blocks are full. If you have to reschedule two (2) or more meetings, the project will be placed “On Hold” for completion at a later date. A project returned from an “On Hold” status will be rescheduled at next availability and there is no guarantee that it will be assigned to the same LabTech Software consultant. Please note: persistent missing or rescheduling (more than three meetings) may result in project cancellation.

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 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. This term is used to describe the LabTech Training regimen developed by the LabTech Training Department. It includes (but is not limited to) LabTech University, LabTech TV, virtual training via webinars and LabTech Boot Camps.
