  4. Gartner Service Definition —Cloud Transformation Readiness Assessment (“Green Field Site”) Assumptions • The client will designate a project manager as primary point of contact who will work closely with Gartner as needed and will: (a) approve priorities/task plans/schedules; (b) facilitate scheduling of interviews with personnel; (c) notify Gartner in writing of project issues and assist in their resolution. • Client will review and approve documents within five business days. If no formal approval/rejection is received within that time, the deliverable is considered accepted. • Client personnel will be made available per the schedule agreed in the kickoff meeting. • The due diligence (as‑is) data are reasonably available via interviews and documentation review. • Client provides timely access to personnel to be interviewed. These personnel will be able to answer questions, provide documentation and attend sessions. • Project pricing assumes that Gartner will conduct a maximum of ten stakeholders interviews over a period of three days and that the client will arrange all sessions with the client’s personnel. • All data collection/interviews/workshops will take place via phone or in person as agreed at the project kickoff. • With the exception of meetings and workshops, Gartner work will be performed at Gartner locations. • Offices, phones, printing/copying and Internet access will be available to Gartner at client locations. • Gartner will use Microsoft Office for the production of any engagement documentation • Any requests for additional information and/or deliverables(beyond the details described in this service definition) that are made will be considered a change in scope and will be handled accordingly (see Changes to Scope). This does not apply to clarification questions. Changes to Scope • The scope of the engagement is defined herein. All client requests for changes must be set forth and explained in writing.

Service Migration • There is no need for a Service Migration plan given the nature of the service under discussion. The client is able to complete and conclude the service without any ongoing process being required for transfer of service or information to an alternative provider or successor. At the conclusion of the service described all deliverables and any supporting information is handed over to the client.
