    2.  Each Receiving Party shall disclose Confidential Information only to its Representatives who: (i) need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of the Receiving Party’s exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations under and in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Section 9; and (iii) are bound by confidentiality and restricted use obligations at least as protective of the Confidential Information as the terms set forth in this Section 9.  Each Party agrees to ensure its Representatives’ compliance, and be responsible for any of its Representatives’ non-compliance, with the terms of this Section 9. The Parties agree to hold each other’s Confidential Information in confidence during the term of this Agreement and thereafter. On the earlier termination of this Agreement or Disclosing Party’s written request, Receiving Party shall cease use of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information and return or destroy all Confidential Information disclosed by Disclosing Party. The Parties agree, unless required by law, not to make each other’s Confidential Information available in any form to any third party for any purpose without the express written consent of the Disclosing Party, unless requesting such consent and thereby notifying the Disclosing Party of the third-party inquiry is expressly prohibited by law or legal authority. Each Party shall protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, using the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own confidential information, but no less than a reasonable degree of care. Each Party shall use a similar degree of care to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed or distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of this Agreement. The Parties’ obligations under this clause are perpetual and shall survive termination and neither Party shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder, unless the other Party releases such obligations in writing. Unqork recognizes that Federal agencies are subject to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. 552, which may require that certain information be released, despite being characterized as “confidential” by the vendor, provided, however, any such Federal agencies shall notify Unqork in writing of any such request made pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, and Unqork shall have the opportunity to assert confidentiality protection in accordance with applicable Law.

      2. was or becomes generally known by the public other than by the Receiving Party’s or any of its Representatives’ noncompliance with this Agreement; or is received by the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third party that (i) to the Receiving Party’s knowledge, was not or is not, at the time of such receipt, under any obligation to maintain its confidentiality or (ii) has affirmatively represented to the other Party that it is without restriction on disclosure; or
      3. was or is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or use of any Confidential Information.
    4. Compelled Disclosures. If the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is compelled by applicable Law to disclose any Confidential Information then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Receiving Party shall: (a) if legally permitted to do so, promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party can seek a protective order or other remedy or waive its rights under Section 9 and (b) provide reasonable assistance to the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s sole cost and expense, in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If the Disclosing Party waives compliance or, after providing the notice and assistance required under this Section 9 the Receiving Party remains required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances from the applicable court or other presiding authority that such Confidential Information will be afforded confidential treatment.
    5. Duty to Notify and Mitigate. The Receiving Party shall promptly notify the Disclosing Party of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, whether known or suspected, and shall use all reasonable efforts to mitigate any harm that may be caused by such unauthorized use or disclosure and reasonably cooperate with the Disclosing Party in any efforts by the Disclosing Party to mitigate any harm that may be caused by such unauthorized use or disclosure.

Appendix 3

UNQORK AGILE FRAMEWORK:

Unqork will utilize the Unqork Agile Framework (“UAF”) in its performance under this SOW. The UAF consists of the following phases and activities: 

Kickoff – This phase formally introduces the Customer team to Unqork’s project leadership team. A certified engagement manager, a senior solutions architect, and an application engineer lead will manage the project while the Unqork’s client partner and customer success manager will share knowledge on industry best practices. Unqork will utilize this meeting to provide an in-depth walk through of the UAF, define roles and responsibilities, establish the governance structure, meetings schedule, communication plan, and align with Customer on the scope of the Professional Services and/or Use Case. Customer’s key stakeholders shall participate in the meeting to provide input on success criteria, key objectives, and critical Requirements. At this meeting, Unqork expects Customer to provide user stories, functional and non-functional Requirements/user stories, user personas, brand style guidelines, wireframes, data dictionary, API/Integration requirements, and any business process flows.

Discovery – Following Kickoff, Unqork and the Customer will begin a series of deep dive discovery sessions to understand the Customer’s business and requirements, to be reflected in the preparation and drafting of baseline Use Case features, functions and architecture. These sessions are led by the certified engagement manager, solution architect, lead application engineer, and UX Designer and will allow Unqork to identify user personas, document the functionality, key system integrations, architecture of the Use Case and confirm alignment with Customer’s Requirements. The information collected in these sessions will allow Unqork to create lo-fi wireframes and the technical artifacts, which includes solution architecture, business process architecture, data model and dictionary, RBAC diagram and integration specification(s). Once the Requirements of the Use Case are agreed with the Customer, the detailed project plan is finalized, including the delivery timeline for the Use Case. 

Build | UAT – Following conclusion of the Discovery phase, Unqork begins configuration and implementation iteratively utilizing the principles of agile software development. 

Unqork follows generally accepted industry practices for unit testing, manual and automated quality assurance, performance testing, and configuration reviews to configure the Use Case with a focus on quality while meeting the timelines set forth in the project plan established at the end of Discovery. Customers will have full visibility into the Use Case development lifecycle and the opportunity to participate in live demonstrations to evaluate the development and functionality of the Use Case. 

Throughout this phase, components of the Use Case will be completed and available for Customer to conduct user acceptance testing after each sprint demo. Defects (as defined in Appendix 4) in the Use Case identified by Unqork and/or the Customer will be defined, logged, and determine resolution path prior to completion of this phase. This phase will also identify future enhancements, associated priorities, and the post-launch enhancement schedule. Customers conduct user acceptance testing (for the period set forth in Appendix 1) in a secure staging, non-production environment. Upon the conclusion of user acceptance testing, Customer will deliver to Unqork written acceptance of the Use Case or provide written notice stating with specificity as to why the Use Case or such or portion(s) of the Use Case are not acceptable to Customer. If Unqork does not receive acceptance or rejection from Customer by the end of this acceptance testing period, then Company shall be deemed to have accepted such Use Case or portion(s) of the Use Case.

Go Live – The Use Case will be promoted from the staging environment to production and Customer shall conduct end to end user acceptance testing of the Use Case (for the period set forth in Appendix 1). Upon the conclusion of such user acceptance testing, Customer will deliver to Unqork written acceptance of the Use Case or provide written notice stating with specificity as to why the Use Case or such or portion(s) of the Use Case are not acceptable to Customer. If Unqork does not receive acceptance or rejection from Customer by the end of this acceptance testing period, then Company shall be deemed to have accepted the Use Case. Upon Customer’s written direction, the Use Case will be available for use in Customer’s GovCloud Production Environment (the “Go-Live Date”). Thereafter, Unqork’s team will monitor the deployment into production and Customers will be provided with applicable Documentation, training and user guides with respect to the Use Case.

Hypercare Support – For a period of no more than thirty (30) days following the Go-Live Date (the “Hypercare Period”), on a time and materials basis, Unqork will resolve Defects (as defined in Appendix 4) in the Use Case that are identified during the Hypercare Period by Customer. 

If Customer encounters an issue with the operation of the Use Case during the Hypercare Period, Customer shall provide written notice to Unqork, including the following information: 

  • Browser type and version
  • Detailed steps to reproduce the issue 
  • Specific feature/functionality of the Use Case relating to the issue
  • Detailed description of Requirement versus actual operation of such functionality or feature of the Use Case
  • Available workarounds
  • Detailed description of troubleshooting/debugging activity (e.g. order of steps) Customer has performed
  • Copy of erroneous file (if generated from the Use Case)

Upon the receipt of such written notice, Unqork and the Customer shall diagnose such issue.  If it is determined that such issue is a Defect, Unqork shall remediate such Defect in coordination with Customer. 

If Customer requests in writing (1) that Unqork correct an issue not (a) caused by a Defect in the Use Case;  (b) attributable to the fault of Unqork; and/or (c) caused by the Unqork Systems, or (2) an enhancement to Requirements set forth in the Scope of Services section of the applicable Order and/or this SOW, as applicable, then Customer shall negotiate a Change Order to this SOW or separate SOW to perform the work necessary to resolve such issue. 

For the avoidance of doubt, (1) enhancements to the Use Case and (2) additional remediation of Defects following the Hypercare Period shall be rendered pursuant to a separate SOW or a Change Order to this SOW. Any scope changes to the Requirements set forth above following the Completion Date shall be performed pursuant to a separate SOW and/or Change order.

Appendix 4

DEFECT

A “Defect” means an error or flaw in a feature or function of the Use Case resulting in functionality and/or performance of such Use Case that deviates from the Requirements set forth in this SOW. 

If Unqork determines that an issue is (i) not a Defect in the Use Case, (ii) caused by Customer (whether a Designer User or an End User, or (iii) an Enhancement (as defined below), Unqork and Customer shall mutually agree as to a Change Order or a separate SOW to perform the Professional Services necessary to remediate the issue.  

  1. Categorization of Defects
  • Critical. A Defect in the Use Case impacting all Designer and/or End Users, as applicable, for which there is no workaround, that causes (i) the Use Case to be unavailable; or (ii) an inability for End Users to complete transactions contemplated in the user story and/or requirements set forth in the Order. 

Examples include: 

  • An End User(s) is unable to register or log in to the Use Case (e.g. the login button is missing or not operational).
  • Use Case is not saving in accordance with the Requirements.
  • Customer Data has been lost and/or End Users are unable to complete a transaction that is fundamental to the Use Case.
  • Medium.  A Defect in the Use Case impacting multiple End Users that causes the performance or processing of the Use Case to slow down, degrade and/or not operate in the manner the Use Case was accepted by Company when it was deployed into a GovCloud Production Environment, for which there is a workaround allowing Company to materially continue its normal business operations during which time the Contractor is curing the Defect.

Examples include:

  • The login button is present, but it takes three (3) minutes or more to log into the Use Case.
  • Multiple End Users are able to utilize a feature or complete a transaction but requires multiple attempts.
  • On page display of information requires a refresh of the page.   
  • Low. A Defect in the Use Case impacting an End User that causes performance or processing inconsistent with the Requirements set forth in the SOW, which (i) does not prevent the normal operation of the Use Case; (ii) an available workaround does not materially impact the user experience; or (iii) is aesthetic in nature. 

Examples include:

  • The Use Case shows a non-blocking error message.
  • The login button is present, but it is labeled “Loggins.”
  • The login button is located in a position not set forth in the requirements.
  1. Prioritization of Defects 

Upon Unqork’s categorization of Defect, Customer shall assign an ordinal ranking for each such Defect for resolution by Unqork (e.g., P1, P2 or P3). 

ENHANCEMENTS

 “Enhancement” means an additional feature or function of the Use Case not included or explicitly enumerated in the Requirements or user stories as set forth in the SOW.  

Examples include:

  • The Requirement stated in the SOW provides that the login button must advance to the welcome screen, but such Requirement did not include that such welcome screen feature 2 factor authentication. During user acceptance testing, Customer acknowledges that 2 factor authentication was not included in the Requirement; accordingly, Professional Services to add and activate 2 factor authentication are an Enhancement.

For the avoidance of doubt, an Enhancement is not a Defect.
