HARDWARE SERVICES
1. Standard On-Site Maintenance Services:
a. General: VASKE shall provide labor and parts (except supplies and expendable items, including but not limited to: print heads for dot matrix printers, toner cartridges, fuser assemblies, memory, font cartridges, paper tray and any other optional accessories for laser printers, RAID controller and system clock batteries ) and will perform Services so as to maintain Client’s Equipment (See attached Exhibit __) in good working order at the location(s) specified in this Agreement or as otherwise indicated in Exhibit __. This contract shall be in full force and effect upon inspection and acceptance, by a VASKE Hardware Engineer (CE) of the equipment per Exhibit __. This inspection must take place within 10 business days of contract execution. Any break fix repairs occurring in the time between the contract execution and the completed site inspection will be responded to in a best effort manner and billed in accordance with the VASKE Service Rates per Exhibit __. VASKE requires 30 days to evaluate current parts inventories and procure parts that may be required for any new or renewed contract. During this 30 day period it is possible that the time to repair could be extended due to parts procurement. This contract is not intended to provide coverage for complete system replacement in the event of total equipment failure, i.e.
flood, power surge, lightning, accident, fire or any other destruction or damage outside of normal use and wear. Client understands and accepts that in the course of resolving a client repair ticket, a system replacement may be necessary and that the replacement, whether permanent or temporary, shall be capable of operating to the Client’s minimal operational specifications and shall be at least comparable to the system replaced.
b. Peripherals: VASKE will provide labor and parts and will perform Services so as to maintain Client’s Equipment for the
Peripherals that are listed in Exhibit __ as assigned to each individual system/server. Peripherals include but are not limited to: Network Interface Cards, Host Bus Adapters, Infiniband Adapters, Video Graphic/Frame Buffer Cards, and System/Network Cabling. For equipment not listed in Exhibit __, on-call service performed at Client’s request shall be made on a time, materials, and transportation bases at VASKE prices in effect at the time such services are performed.
c. Initial Response: After Client places a request for Services, a VASKE CE will contact the Client by e-mail or telephone within the pre-determined response time per Exhibit __ and, if necessary, arrange for a mutually satisfactory arrival time based upon the nature of the problem.
d. Coverage: VASKE has standard office hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM central time Monday through Friday and shall respond to request for Services to Equipment in a prompt and commercially reasonable manner. Initial response time from a CE as indicated per Exhibit __ is dependent upon the Principle Period of Maintenance (PPM). PPM shall be as indicated as follows (please initial for coverage selected):
___ Next Day VASKE shall be available between the hours of 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM in the time zone where the covered equipment exists, Monday through Friday, and will take action to resolve client issues within one business day of request for Services as mutually agreed by Client and VASKE, exclusive of VASKE holidays.
___ 5x9 VASKE shall be available between the hours of 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM in the time zone where the covered equipment exists, Monday through Friday, and will take action to resolve client issues, on the same business day as request for Services, at a time mutually agreed by Client and VASKE, exclusive of VASKE Holidays.
___ 5x11 VASKE shall be available between the hours of 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM in the time zone where the covered equipment exists, Monday through Friday, on the same business day as request for Services, at a time mutually agreed by Client and VASKE, exclusive of VASKE holidays.
__ 7x24 VASKE shall be available between the hours of 8:00 AM to 8:00 AM (24 hour coverage), Monday through Monday, on the same day as request for Services, at a time mutually agreed by Client and VASKE, including VASKE holidays.
Extended service hours and priority response coverage, are available and may be subject to additional cost for services performed outside of the selected PPM. Rates for service provided outside of PPM are available to Client upon request.
d. Preventative Maintenance: Preventative maintenance may be performed at no additional charge to Client if made during PPM for Equipment and as specified according to manufacturer service recommendations.
Vaske Computer, Inc., dba Collier IT GSA Contract #GS-35F-535BA Contract Period: Sept. 26, 2014 – Sept. 25, 2029 2310 West County Road D, Suite 100, St. Paul, MN 55112 Telephone: 651-366-6446 Website: www..collier-it.com
e. Crash Dump Analysis (CDA): When an abnormal event occurs during system operation, many systems will perform a crash dump. Access to these dump files may be required to complete troubleshooting and determine repair procedures. Such data is to be made available to VASKE. A CDA can result in a recommendation for a hardware repair or replacement or can result in a recommendation for a non break-fix solution.
___ If indicated on Exhibit __ and accepted with a corresponding check mark here, this Agreement includes a provision for consultation services to provide quick response CDA on the SOLARIS operating environment. This analysis will be performed and relayed to the client within a 72 hour period. This 72 hour period commences upon the successful receipt of the crash dump files and if applicable, additional diagnostic tool data such as the “sun explorer”.
In the event that a CDA reveals a repair recommendation that is out of the scope of services provided for in Exhibit __, the client affirms that regardless of the designation for expedited service, a diagnosis may result in a billable event.
2. Time and Materials Services:
a. On-call service performed at Client’s request, which is outside of designated PPM shall be on a time and transportation basis at VASKE prices in effect at the time such Services are performed. For equipment listed in Exhibit __, there is no applicable charge made for parts.
b. For equipment not listed in Exhibit __, on-call service performed at Client’s request shall be made on a time, materials, and transportation bases at VASKE prices in effect at the time such services are performed.
c. For equipment not listed in Exhibit __, CDA services are also available to the Client on a Time and Materials basis, offered at the rates as periodically published by VASKE on their Service Rates Schedule.
d. VASKE shall be allowed to invoice Client for any on-site or after hour service call, at VASKE prices in effect at the time such Services are requested, if the CE demonstrates that the cause for request of Service is not related to any covered Equipment failure.
3. Maintenance Software and Hardware Documentation
Client agrees to maintain at the Equipment site where Services are to be performed and make available to VASKE CE’s all maintenance documentation and diagnostic materials, related CD’s, and other materials which are provided by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) for the Equipment and which are normally made available for use by service personnel. Upon completion of our efforts, if the Equipment failure is determined to be originated in software or firmware, Client agrees that those services are provided outside of the scope of this Agreement. Further, Client authorizes VASKE to invoice Client, at VASKE published rates, for the efforts to research and discover the cause for failure. In addition, VASKE may bill for any specifically pre-approved efforts to rectify the failure, once discovered. Client assumes all responsibility for any required re-licensing or re-registration of software or hardware in conjunction with hardware servicing.
4. Authorization Client hereby warrants that Client is authorized to enter into this Agreement by owner, or lessee or end-user of the Equipment specified in this Agreement. Client agrees to indemnify and hold VASKE harmless for any and all claims arising out of Client ’s misrepresentation of any acts of errors or omissions which relate to VASKE’s performance of Services under this Agreement.
5. Parts and Systems
All system components that are replaced from VASKE inventory shall be on an exchange basis and such exchanged components become the property of VASKE. Parts provided by VASKE in performance of services may be new, used, or refurbished parts which are functionally equivalent, or better than the replaced parts. Parts may or may not be sourced from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the base component or system that is being repaired. VASKE may, from time to time, replace a client part with a VASKE part for expeditiousness with full intent to repair the client part and return/replace it at a later date. Therefore:
All full system swap performed by VASKE shall be on a temporary basis until such time that VASKE has either completed repairs on the original system or provides a permanent replacement thereof. If the Client wishes to retain the replacement system, rather than wait for repair of their original system, Client agrees that VASKE shall be allowed to invoice Client for a reasonable replacement cost of that system.
6. Environment Client or Client’s end user shall, at no cost to VASKE, prepare and maintain the Equipment site in accordance with the operat ing environment specifications as established by the OEM of the Equipment. Client assumes full responsibility to back-up and/or otherwise protect their data against loss, damage or destruction before Services are performed. Client also agrees to permit prompt access to Equipment and/or software consistent with Client’s standard security protocol and to provide reasonable assistance and facilities so as to expedite the performance of services.
