If the Client has data in multiple source systems from which data will be migrated into CARET Legal, there will be an additional 20% upcharge for the second source system and an additional 10% upcharge for the third source system. If Client has more than three source systems a custom quote will be required.
Client understands that the success of the work contemplated by this SOW is dependent upon a collaborative effort and includes certain actions which are not under CARET’s control. In addition to any other responsibilities or duties described in this SOW or the Terms and Conditions, below is a list of Client responsibilities that if not performed or prove to be incorrect or untrue, may impact the schedule, fees and expenses, deliverables, or level of effort required and result in delays to the deliverable and increased cost to Client.
Access to the relevant systems needs to be provided. Client will provide adequate internal resources that possess all required skills. While CARET may provide guidance on how to perform the data extraction, Client is responsible for all data extracted and is required to be on the data extraction call. Client will make available internal resources that are experts on their existing platform. Client will provide required information and/or data conflict resolutions within one week as directed by the Project Manager needed for the assessment and/or the project’s migration phases. Failure to do so may impact the migration schedule and may incur additional fees. Examples include matter ID/Client ID resolution, if applicable. Client will ensure the information provided is accurate for the data migration. Failure to do so may impact the migration schedule and may incur additional fees. Client will review and ensure this document includes all data types required for migration as defined by the migration package purchased. Any data types found during the assessment or migration phases outside of the migration package purchased may incur additional fees and may impact the migration schedule.
Acceptance testing is primarily the responsibility of the Client. However, CARET will provide support during the test period which occurs for 2 weeks after migration is completed.
