About this file
This is a Vendor Service Level Agreement (SLA) document for the City of Pittsburgh's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Solution contract, establishing performance standards and expectations for the service provider's software application delivery. The agreement defines uptime availability requirements during normal business hours, excluding periods when the office is closed, weekends, and holidays. The vendor is required to maintain 99.99% uptime per month for all Components of Service, which encompass the specific application features necessary for contact delivery and end-user functionality. If the vendor exceeds five minutes of unplanned downtime in any given month, the customer may request a service credit upon submission and verification of a trouble ticket documenting the downtime incident.
The SLA establishes a tiered credit structure for uptime failures: no credit is issued if uptime remains above 99.99%, a 15% credit applies for uptime between 99.90% and 99.98%, and a 35% credit applies for uptime between 95.00% and 99.89%. The agreement specifies that downtime is calculated as the total minutes during which any listed component cannot be used by the customer to perform assigned tasks, measured only during business or operational hours when the application is in active use. The vendor's calculation methodology excludes periods of planned downtime that occur during normal business hours, ensuring that only unplanned service interruptions trigger potential credit obligations.
