Technology Support Contract Introduction This technology support contract describes the services that Barry Eaton Health Department ( Client ) will receive from Eaton County Technology Services ( Contractor ) as authorized by the Eaton County Board of Commissioners. Purpose Client depends on its computer systems and software to provide a wide array of public health services. Historically, support for these systems has been provided by Client staff and/or noncounty third parties. This contract describes how the Contractor will provide technology support services to maximize end-user access to Client computer systems and software, including consultation, design, planning, and monitoring services as further described in the following section(s). Scope Client wishes to contract for technology support services provided by Contractor that address the five broad areas listed below. Additional examples can be found in Appendix A. Administration (i.e., consultation, planning/design, project management, purchasing, inventory, auditing, and related tasks). Infrastructure (i.e., management of network switches, routers, firewalls, wireless access points, and related devices). Network Servers (i.e., specifications, design, configurations, software updates, and related tasks). Digital Storage and Backups (i.e., monitoring storage pool(s), monitor/administer scheduled backups of digital datasets, and related tasks). End-User Support (i.e., help desk services, hardware and software troubleshooting and corrective action, and related tasks). Dates and Reviews This contract shall take effect on September 1, 2015 and remain in effect for 12 months and will automatically expire at the end of the term. It may be reviewed from time to time and, upon mutual agreement, be changed to reflect changes and deletions in the scope of work. The timeliness and quality of services provided by Contractor will be reviewed by both parties as needed. Not less than 90 days prior to contract termination, Client and Contractor will review the quality and conditions of service to determine if the contract will be renewed for another 12 months. If such a review does not occur, and/or Client does not believe the timeliness and quality of services are adequately meeting Client needs, the contract will end on the scheduled
end date, and Client understands that they solely are responsible to identify and contract with another technology support provider to ensure ongoing sustainability of Client computer systems. Exclusions As this contract is written in a spirit of cooperation and partnership, Contractor will make the best, possible, effort to provide support, remedy problems, and provide technology guidance as desired by Client. Client acknowledges that public resources of any kind are routinely constrained and the same is true with regards to Contractor s technology staff. Therefore, services are offered and will be provided on a best-effort basis. Additionally, some technology exclusions are noted below: Contractor does not have the requisite skills to terminate fiber optic cable and therefore shall not provide this service. Contractor shall not configure a firewall (or similar network security device), network switches, routers where required skills are not present with Contractor staff. Contractor shall not provide computer parts, consumable products, cabling, and related items to Client. Client is solely responsible for the cost of such items but Contractor can help coordinate purchases to an extent authorized by Client. Contractor shall not provide technical support for any computing device or software application that is personally-owned by an employee of the Client, whether that device is used for Client or personal work. Contractor may not provide technical support outside of Eaton County s normal business hours, unless the problem is determined to be of a critical nature. In such an instance, support will be provided consistent with any other county operation reporting a similar situation requiring urgent remedy. When situations arise whereby Contractor cannot adequately provide the service (i.e., configuring a firewall), Client shall with or without assistance of Contractor, identify and hire a third party to perform the service to the Client s satisfaction.
