(c) All implemented MACs shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement as it relates to TBCCCS. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that certain MACs may necessitate changes by the Customer to its network and connectivity and those changes may impact the delivery interval.
12. Professional Services
(a) Each professional services (“
PS
”) engagement for initial delivery of the TBCCCS or subsequently during the term are subject to a statement of work to be mutually agreed upon between the parties ahead of the work to be performed (the “SOW
”). Each SOW will include among other things, description of PS, phases, fees, acceptance criteria and acceptance procedure, Customer responsibilities and any property and facilities that Customer is required or responsible to provide to TELUS in order for TELUS to perform the PS, change order procedure, and other information and terms and conditions applicable to the particular SOW. The terms and conditions in a SOW do not apply to the PS in any other SOW. Once executed by the parties, the SOW forms part of, and is governed by, this Agreement.
(b) Changes to any applicable SOW shall be made only in a mutually executed written change order between TELUS and Customer (a “
Change Order
”), outlining the requested change and the effect of such change on the professional services, including without limitation the fees and the timeline as determined by TELUS in its reasonable discretion. TELUS has no obligation to provide any professional services outside the scope of an SOW. TELUS will have no obligation to commence work in connection with any change order until the change order is agreed upon by both Parties in writing.
(c) Customer Sites and Site Visits. In the event the parties agree that the PS must be performed at one or more Customer facilities (each a “
Site
”), the Site will be separately identified in the applicable SOW. Each visit to a separate Customer Site will be considered a separate “Site Visit”. When so stipulated in the SOW, each Site may constitute a phase (a “Project Phase
”). Customer will follow these obligations and accordingly agrees that for failure to meet any of the following obligations, Customer shall incur (at the time of cancellation or failure) and be liable for, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to the number hours spent by TELUS for any Project Phase up to cancellation or failure the at TELUS then-current Time and Materials (“T&M
”) Services hourly rate, as well as any expenses incurred by TELUS for Customer’s failure to meet any of the following obligations:
- (i) Customer will maintain and ensure safe working conditions at each Site and shall promptly inform the TELUS project manager of any known hazardous conditions at any Site prior to any visit by any TELUS personnel;
- (ii) Customer shall ensure that all Site hardware and network environment meets or exceed the requirements set forth in the SOW;
- (iii) Customer shall provide TELUS with all reasonable information, cooperation, and assistance that TELUS requests in connection with performing the PS, including without limitation providing TELUS with access to Customer’s systems and networks and related system and network administrators. Any failure on the part of Customer to provide the cooperation requested by TELUS, or to provide the information or hardware and software environment required, may result in the need for a Change Order with additional fees and extended timelines to accommodate Customer’s failure to do so; and
- (iv) Customer shall ensure that at least ten (10) business days prior to a Site Visit or as otherwise agreed in the applicable SOW, the Customer project manager shall provide to the TELUS project manager the following information for the Site to be visited:
- 1) the first and last name, extension number, and email address for delivery of message notification emails of each End User for which the professional services are to be implemented at the Site and any other information that TELUS requests to configure the digital lines that are part of such Services to be implemented (this information needs to be in the form of a Microsoft Excel file suitable for use with the plan service’s bulk configuration utility);
- 2) written or illustrated diagrams of Customer’s current and proposed dial plans and data and call flows; and
- 3) information related to configurations, equipment, and deployment requirements for the Site, as requested by TELUS.
- (v) Late Site Visit Change. The parties acknowledge and agree that Customer’s cancellation or change of the dates of a Site Visit at any time during the ten (10) business days immediately prior to the date that the Site Visit is scheduled to take place (a “Late Site Visit Change”) will cause TELUS to incur expenses and losses (including without limitation TELUS’s costs in rescheduling the Site Visit and/or loss of opportunity for other business during the period during which such Site Visit was to take place). Accordingly, Customer agrees that for each Late Site Visit Change, Customer shall incur (at the time of cancellation or change) and be liable for, as liquidated damages, an amount equal to eight (8) hours of TELUS T&M Services at TELUS’s then-current T&M Services hourly rate, as well as any Service Expenses that have already been expended by TELUS. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this amount is a fair, reasonable, and appropriate pre-estimate of the losses that TELUS will incur as a result of any single Late Site Visit Change.
(d) PS Acceptance. Each applicable SOW will identify the specific criteria required for the completion of each Project Phase (“
Completion Criteria
”). Unless otherwise agreed between the parties in the applicable SOW, upon TELUS’s completion of the professional services for each Project Phase, TELUS will review the Completion Criteria with Customer and will present to Customer the PS Project Completion Signoff Form (“PCF
”) for that Project Phase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any SOW, TELUS’s obligations under any Project Phase are deemed accepted and the professional services under such Project Phase shall be considered completed in full and billable upon any of the following (“Acceptance
”):
- (i) Customer executes the PCF.
- (ii) If TELUS presents Customer with the PCF and the Customer fails to execute the PCF within three (3) days, unless the Customer provides to TELUS, within those three (3) days, with a detailed description of the items that are outstanding or that are materially non- conforming with the Completion Criteria applicable to the specific Project Phase. If TELUS timely receives a rejection notice, then TELUS will complete or re-perform any portion of the non-conforming professional services and re-submit the PCF for the Project Phase to Customer for Acceptance as described above. If TELUS timely receives from Customer a second rejection notice, and TELUS, in its reasonable discretion determines that the professional services for the Project Phase were properly completed in accordance with the Completion Criteria, acceptance of the Project Phase will be deemed to have been occurred.
- (iii) Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the Parties, production use will constitute Acceptance for all purposes of this Agreement.
- (iv) Acceptance for T&M Services, if applicable and used in an applicable SOW, is deemed to have occurred upon performance.
(e) Additional Fees
- (i) In addition to the fees and expenses set forth in the applicable SOW, Customer agrees to reimburse TELUS for its fixed travel, meal, and lodging expenses incurred in connection with any Site Visit (“Service Expenses”). Travel, meal, and lodging expenses shall be invoiced upon Acceptance of each Project phase, alongside all other amounts due under this Agreement, on a per-trip/per resource basis. TELUS shall, after Customers’ request, provide information verifying the deployment of on-site resources and expenditure of Service Expenses.
- (ii) Customer agrees to incur and be liable for any additional fees or other amounts not provided for in the applicable SOW.

(f) SOW Termination
- (i) Either Party may terminate the applicable SOW, in whole or in part, with thirty (30) days’ advance written termination notice to the other Party. Unless otherwise specified in the termination notice, the termination of one SOW or Project Phase shall not necessarily result in the termination of, or otherwise affect, any other SOW or Project Phase.
- (ii) In the event that a SOW, or a Project Phase is terminated, in whole or in part, for any reason other than for TELUS’s material breach of this Agreement, Customer shall be obligated to pay TELUS for:
- 1. any professional services and T&M Services that have been rendered up until the effective date of the termination;
- 2. all applicable expenses incurred; and
- 3. fifty percent (50%) of the fees for any other professional services not yet performed, due under the Project Phase(s) being cancelled, if termination of the Agreement, applicable SOW, or a Project Phase occurs within one hundred and eighty (180) days of execution of the applicable SOW. If termination occurs after one hundred and eighty (180) days of execution of the applicable SOW, Customer shall owe all outstanding fees for any professional services not yet performed pursuant to the SOW, due under the Project Phase being cancelled.
