Schedule E - Consulting Services and Fees
SVA Consulting offers the following services related to the implementation and ongoing support of your computer system:

Installation
* We will properly install the Great Plains software product and related database license on your server and client workstations. Server and database configuration times generally average between two and four hours, with workstation configurations generally ranging from one to two hours per workstation. However, unforeseen circumstances may result in these estimates being exceeded. You will be billed at the stated hourly rate for the actual time required for installation.
* If is required that your internal or external network consultant be available during the installation to answer questions and address any network configuration issues.

Implementation
*The time required to assist organizations in properly setting up the software varies greatly from one organization to another and from one module to another. Setup time typically takes between two and fives days per module. Our implementation begins with a Requirements Workshop, which is designed to explore and document your specific needs. Upon concluding the Workshops, we will be able to give you a more accurate assessment of time to complete all identified work.
* At your request, we can provide additional consulting services to assist in the implementation and initial setup of software and hardware. You will be billed for the actual hours incurred at the stated hourly rate.

Training
* The amount of training required to become proficient with a new system varies by individual. Training times vary between 6 to 12 hours per module. We will conduct training at a comfortable pace for your users. Additional training hours beyond our total hour estimate will be billed at the stated hourly rate. You will be billed at the stated hourly rate for the actual time required for training.
* Training will be conducted either at your site or in SVA's state-of-the-art Computer Training Center. SVA's facility rental fee is $ 500.00 per day, plus setup cost. Consultant's fees for preparation and training will be billed at the stated hourly rate.

Project Management
Project Management includes, but is not limited to, tasks such as conducting an implementation planning meeting, creating an implementation plan and project schedule, coordinating time with other vendors and reporting on the project's progress. If your organization requests project management duties that exceed our total hourly estimate for this task, you will be billed at the stated hourly rate for the actual time required for project management.

Conversion
The ability to bring data from a current system into Great Plains is an important consideration when implementing this product. However, since we cannot predict the integrity or the format of the data being converted, unforeseen circumstances sometimes occur during file conversions. You will be billed for the actual hoursincurred in design and development of conversion programs at the stated hourly rate.

Customization/Integration
If software customization is necessary to accommodate special practices or procedures, a cost estimate based on detailed design specifications will be provided for each such customization. In the absence of a detailed design, we will estimate the time required to develop the detailed design specifications. The results of the design phase may significantly change the hours required to code and implement customizations. Regardless of the presence of detailed design specifications, you will be billed for the actual hours incurred in the design and development of customizations at the stated hourly rate.
