    1. Pre-Ordered Blocks: Licensee may purchase Professional Services in advance in bundles, to be used towards Professional Services at a later date.
    2. Specific Projects:
      1. Defining Scope of Project: Licensee may retain Licensor to provide Professional Services on a particular project. Licensee and Licensor will analyzed Licensee’s needs and mutually determine the scope of the Professional Services to be provided (“Project”).
      2. Within a reasonable period of time following the parties’ determination of the Project’s scope, Licensor will create a quote, which will detail the deliverables (“Deliverables”), project timeline and estimated costs for the project (“Quote”). Such Quote will be attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
      3. Change Requests: Should Licensee seek to change the scope of the Project, Licensee will notify Licensor and Licensor will create a revised Quote, which may include additional charges. Any changes to the scope of the Project must be approved in advance by both Licensor and the Project Sponsor (defined below).
      4. User Acceptance Review.
        1. Acceptance. Within three weeks of Licensor’s completion of the Project, Licensee will review the Deliverables and communicate to Licensor whether such Deliverables reasonably meet the specifications in the Quote. If the Deliverables reasonably meet the Quote’s specifications, the Project is deemed accepted (“Acceptance” or “Accepted”).
        2. Revision. In the event the Project is not Accepted, Licensor will promptly make reasonable changes to the Deliverables to conform with the Quote’s specifications.
        3. Failure to Review Deliverables. In the event that Licensee fails to review the Deliverables within the three-week period described above, Licensor reserves the right to reschedule any follow-up work required, as well as reassign the Implementation Manager. In the event that Licensee fails to review the Deliverables with three months of Licensor’s completion of the Project, Licensor reserves the right to cancel any further obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee will be responsible for paying Licensor for all work already performed.
    3. Professional Services may be retained via other methods, which can be discussed with your dedicated Implementation Manager.
