TERMS AND CONDITIONS

TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO PURCHASING CLOUD COMPUTING

SERVICES (SPECIAL ITEM NUMBER 518210C)

1. SCOPE

The prices, terms and conditions stated under Special Item Number (SIN) 518210C Cloud and Cloud-Related IT Professional Services apply exclusively to Cloud Computing Services within the scope of this Multiple Award Schedule.

This SIN provides ordering activities with access to technical services that run-in cloud environments and meet the NIST Definition of Cloud Computing Essential Characteristics.

The scope of this SIN is limited to cloud capabilities provided entirely as a service. Hardware, software, and other artifacts supporting the physical construction of a private or other cloud are out of scope for this SIN. Currently, an Ordering Activity can procure the hardware and software needed to build on premise cloud functionality, through combining different services on other MAS Schedule SINs (e.g., 54151S).

Sub-categories in scope for this SIN are the three NIST Service Models: Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). See service model guidance for advice on sub-category selection. Sub-category selection within this SIN is optional for any individual cloud service offering, and new cloud computing technologies that do not align with the three sub-categories may be included without a sub-category selection so long as they comply with the essential characteristics of cloud computing as outlined by NIST.

See Table 1 for a representation of the scope and sub-categories.

Table 1: Cloud Computing Services SIN

· Commercially available cloud computing services.

· Meets the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) definition of Cloud Computing essential characteristics.

· Open to all deployment models (private, public, community or hybrid), vendors specify deployment models.

1. Software as a Service (SaaS): Consumer uses provider’s applications on cloud infrastructure.

Does not manage/control platform or infrastructure. Limited application-level configuration may be available.

2. Platform as a Service (PaaS): Consumer deploys applications onto cloud platform service using providersupplied tools. Has control over deployed applications and some limited platform configuration but does not manage the platform or infrastructure.

3. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Consumer provisions computing resources. Has control over OS,storage, platform, deployed applications, and some limited infrastructure

2. DESCRIPTION OF CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICES AND PRICING

Please see Accelera Solutions’ cloud computing services and pricing, detailed in the section titled: Description of Offerings and Price Tables, 518210C - Cloud and Cloud Related IT Professional Services (Microsoft).

3. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CONTRACTOR

The Contractor shall comply with all laws, ordinances, and regulations (Federal, State, City, or otherwise) covering work of this character.

a. Acceptance Testing Any required Acceptance Test Plans and Procedures shall be negotiated by the Ordering Activity at task order level. The Contractor shall perform acceptance testing of the systems for Ordering Activity approval in accordance with the approved test procedures.

b. Training If training is provided commercially the Contractor shall provide normal commercial installation, operation, maintenance, and engineering interface training on the system. Contractor is responsible for indicating if there are separate training charges.

c. Information Assurance/Security Requirements The contractor shall meet information assurance/security requirements in accordance with the Ordering Activity requirements at the Task Order level.

d. Related Professional Services The Contractor is responsible for working with the Ordering Activity to identify related professional services and any other services available on other SINs that may be associated with deploying a complete cloud solution.

e. Performance of Cloud Computing Services The Contractor shall respond to Ordering Activity requirements at the Task Order level with proposed capabilities to Ordering Activity performance specifications or indicate that only standard specifications are offered. In all cases the Contractor shall clearly indicate standard service levels, performance, and scale capabilities. The Contractor shall provide appropriate cloud computing services on the date and to the extent and scope agreed to by the Contractor and the Ordering Activity.

f. Reporting The Contractor shall respond to Ordering Activity requirements and specify general reporting capabilities available for the Ordering Activity to verify performance, cost, and availability. In accordance with commercial practices, the Contractor may furnish the Ordering Activity/user with a monthly summary Ordering Activity report.

3. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE ORDERING ACTIVITY

The Ordering Activity is responsible for indicating the cloud computing services requirements unique to the Ordering Activity. Additional requirements should not contradict existing SIN or Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Terms and Conditions. Ordering Activities should include (as applicable) Terms & Conditions to address Pricing, Security, Data Ownership, Geographic Restrictions, Privacy, SLAs, etc.

Cloud services typically operate under a shared responsibility model, with some responsibilities assigned to the Cloud Service Provider (CSP), some assigned to the Ordering Activity, and others shared between the two. The distribution of responsibilities will vary between providers and across service models. Ordering activities should engage with CSPs to fully understand and evaluate the shared responsibility model proposed. Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) documentation will be helpful regarding the security aspects of shared responsibilities, but operational aspects may require additional discussion with the provider.

a. Ordering Activity Information Assurance/Security Requirements Guidance

i. The Ordering Activity is responsible for ensuring to the maximum extent practicable that each requirement issued follows the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) as applicable.

ii. The Ordering Activity shall assign a required impact level for confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA) prior to issuing the initial statement of work.2 The Contractor must be capable of meeting at least the minimum-security requirements assigned against a low-impact information system in each CIA assessment area (per FIPS 200) and must detail the FISMA capabilities of the system in each of CIA assessment area

iii. Agency level FISMA certification, accreditation, and evaluation activities are the responsibility of the Ordering Activity. The Ordering Activity reserves the right to independently evaluate, audit, and verify the FISMA compliance for any proposed or awarded Cloud Computing Services.

iv. The Ordering Activity has final responsibility for assessing the FedRAMP status of the service, complying with and making a risk-based decision to grant an Authorization to Operate (ATO) for the cloud computing service, and continuous monitoring. A memorandum issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on Dec 8, 2011, outlines the responsibilities of Executive departments and agencies in the context of FedRAMP compliance.

v. Ordering activities are responsible for determining any additional information assurance and security related requirements based on the nature of the application and relevant mandates. b. Deployment Model If a particular deployment model (Private, Public, Community, or Hybrid) is desired, Ordering Activities are responsible for identifying the desired model(s). Alternately, Ordering Activities could identify requirements and assess Contractor responses to determine the most appropriate deployment model(s).

Ordering Activities are responsible for identifying interoperability requirements. Ordering Activities should clearly delineate requirements for API implementation and standards conformance.

e. Performance of Cloud Computing Services The Ordering Activity should clearly indicate any custom minimum service levels, performance, and scale requirements as part of the initial requirement.

f. Reporting The Ordering Activity should clearly indicate any cost, performance, or availability reporting as part of the initial requirement.

The Ordering Activity should specify the accessibility characteristics of their service and engage with the Contractor to determine the cloud service is capable of meeting Ordering Activity requirements. For example, a requirement could require assurance that the service can provide accessibility based on Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794d).

i. Geographic Requirements Ordering activities are responsible for specifying any geographic requirements and engaging with the Contractor to determine that the cloud services offered have the capabilities to meet geographic requirements for all anticipated task orders. Common geographic concerns could include whether service data, processes and related artifacts can be confined on request to the United States and its territories, or the continental United States (CONUS).

j. Data Ownership and Retrieval and Intellectual Property Intellectual property rights are not typically transferred in a cloud model. In general, CSPs retain ownership of the Intellectual Property (IP) underlying their services and the customer retains ownership of its intellectual property. The CSP gives the customer a license to use the cloud services for the duration of the contract without transferring rights. The government retains ownership of the IP and data they bring to the customized use of the service as spelled out in the FAR and related materials.

General considerations of data ownership and retrieval are covered under the terms of Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) and the FAR and other laws, ordinances, and regulations (Federal, State, City, or otherwise). Because of considerations arising from cloud shared responsibility models, ordering activities should engage with the Contractor to develop more cloud-specific understandings of the boundaries between data owned by the government and that owned by the cloud service provider, and the specific terms of data retrieval.

In all cases, the Ordering Activity should enter into an agreement with a clear and enforceable understanding of the boundaries between government and cloud service provider data, and the form, format, and mode of delivery for each kind of data belonging to the government.
