Amendment and Restatement of Order No. SG021306.S.025.S.003

 

The Order Gateway and Workflow Manager shall be available and functioning in accordance with the OG SLA (as defined in Section 3.0 below) **** excluding 1) regularly scheduled downtimes to perform system upgrades, application administration, and any other planned events as agreed in advance in writing by the Parties and 2) Supplier written requests to AT&T for any unscheduled maintenance outage periods, if needed (“System Uptime”).  System Availability is measured by ASP Solution Element for each Channel and is calculated as:

**** 

ASP Solution Platform Elements and Service Levels Performance Metrics and KPI for System Availability:

1.Order Gateway - **** System Availability  Service Level Performance Metric

2.Email Service - ****  System Availability Service Level Performance Metric

3.Workflow Manager - **** System Availability Key Performance Indicator

4.Web Portal - **** System Availability Key Performance Indicator

5.Reporting Platform – **** System Availability Key Performance Indicator

Service Level Measurement Process:

1.Statistics used to determine outages are collected using a suite of network and application monitoring tools as well as data collected by the application itself.

2.ASP Solution Platform Element Service Level Performance Metric attainment is reviewed on a **** basis.  All statistics from Supplier’s monitoring suite are reviewed and dowtime recorded for that **** is summarized for each funtional area of the ASP Solution Platform Element (e.g. Order Gateway, email, Workflow etc.)

3.Supplier assumes that the Customer Order volume will not exceed an amount equal to **** of the **** volume of Customer Orders processed by such Channel during the **** of the ****

4.Functional area outages are determined using the guidelines in the tables below:

Table 4: Supplier System Outage Guidelines

Outage Criteria

Order Gateway

●     **** Order Gateway application servers are down (no response to pings for availability)

●     Order Gateway cannot process Customer Order and “nacks” **** messages to the Order Gateway

Email Service

●     **** Email Service servers are down

●     **** email messages are able to be forwarded from Supplier email service

Workflow Manager

●     **** Workflow Manager servers are down

●     Greater than **** of the typical volume of Agents cannot access Workflow Manager to perform functions

Reporting Platform

An outage will be recorded if any one of the following occurs:

●     Real time reporting functionality of Reporting Platform is unavailable or is not updating data on a scheduled basis

●     **** reports are not generated and delivered.  Availability will be measured as a percentage of the overall number of reports generated on a **** basis

Supplier will host an email infrastructure that reliably forwards all system generated emails to AT&T Online customers.  This infrastructure will operate within the following service levels: 

1.**** mail relay servers to deliver expected **** System Availability

2.Support **** email messages per **** (reasonably spaced)

3.**** retention of all sent email messages

4.Message sizes may not exceed **** or contain attachments

3.Order Gateway Performance  Service Level Key Perfromance Indicators (“OG SLA”)

Order Gateway under a Normal Transaction Flow (as described below) will respond to **** of the Customer Orders for a Channel within **** of its receipt by the Order Gateway in any given **** provided such Customer Orders is in the documented format and has been submitted by AT&T per the published process documentation and successfully pass Supplier’s Order Gateway validations (as described below).  AT&T will have the responsibility to produce reports from the Order Gateway, or request such reports from Supplier, to measure the results and determine if this SLA Key Performance Indicator is met. AT&T and Supplier shall mutually agree on the format of such reports.  Measurement will be based on **** for a given Customer Order.  Supplier will comply with AT&T’s reasonable requests for data in accordance with the measurement.   

“Normal Transaction Flow” means:

a.Volumes and distributions are within the expected capacity thresholds for ASP Solution as identified in the Amended and Restated Agreement.

b.The sending system emits a valid message for the activity desired per the agreed upon schema. 

c.The AT&T client is also sending messages at the rate both Parties have determined acceptable for the Channel and via the agreed upon protocol.

4.     Automation Rates, SLAs and Remedies for Customer Orders

The Parties agree that measurement of automation levels and partial automation levels for Customer Orders is an important metric in overall subscriber satisfaction and the costs of both Parties.  As such, the following parameters are established to review and monitor Automation Rates on agreed upon Customer Orders.  The Parties acknowledge that the Actual Automation rate or Rate of Fallout may have many factors and causes including those that are not indicative of any failure or inadequate performance by a Party.  As such, the Parties shall meet quarterly to establish and review the parameters and requirements for measuring Automation Rates and, discuss adjustments as may be reasonably agreed upon by the Parties from time to time.  Any such adjustments shall be made pursuant to the Change Order Process under the Master Agreement. 

1.Establishing Expected Automation Rate.

The Parties shall mutually agree in writing on the Customer Orders that constitute the Customer Orders in the Customer Order Class.  Such orders shall be:

(a)supported by a Workflow and Order Manager configuration, process and flow that supports such Orders being capable of being an Automated Order (i.e., is not a workflow or process that has, by business rule or otherwise, an anticipated Fallout condition for each such Customer Order), and

(b)of a similar nature or type so as to provide meaningful Automation Reporting output for management purposes as reasonably agreed upon by the Parties without undo detail or quantities of measurements and reports.

(c)Customer Orders with an established and tested Order Manager and Workflow configuration for at least ****.

Upon establishing the Customer Order Class, the Parties shall study the Automation Rate of the Customer Order Class for Completed Customer Orders in the Customer Order Class over the **** that does not include a Special Event (an “Evaluation Period”) where the following data is reasonably constant or static during such Evaluation Period (collectively, the “Baseline Data”):

(a)Mix of the types of Customer Orders within the Customer Order Class and the Automation Rate for such Orders,

(b)Volume and arrival distribution of such Customer Orders,

(c)Relative occurrence of issues that impact or cause Fallout or a Customer Contact (excluding Fallout as a result in a Defect in the ASP Solution or error in configuration or implementation of a process or workflow in the ASP Solution by Supplier), and

(d)Current processes, workflow and task requirements and the SLA requirements established for the Customer Orders in the Customer Order Class as well as average handle times and system response times for connected applications external to the ASP Solution that are applicable to the Orders and related parameters (such a system timeouts and “retries”) (collectively, the “Requirements”).

The Parties shall use the Average Automation Rate for the Customer Order Class over each **** of the Evaluation Period less **** as the Expected Automation Rate for such Order Class.  In the event that, for each **** of an Evaluation Period, the **** Automation Rate varies from the average Automation Rate in such Evaluation Period by more than ****, the Parties shall (a) defer the assignment of an Expected Automation Rate for such Customer Order Class or (b) conduct such evaluation on an extended or new Evaluation Period, as may be reasonable, until such discrepancy and deviation is less than or equal to ****.

2.Measurement and Reports.

Supplier will provide Automation Reports to AT&T for agreed upon Order Classes on a **** basis (each such ****, a “Measurement Period”) setting forth (a) calculations of actual performance relative to the SLAs for the relevant ****; and (b) in the event that any SLAs are not achieved in any given ****, a description of the cause or causes believed to have caused such failure to achieve such SLA, and, to the extent such caused by a Defect, any corrective actions taken by Supplier to prevent re-occurrence.
