ResourceEstimated Time Necessary During Customer Readiness Phase
Project Manager/Coordinator20 hours
Legal/Business Subject Matter Experts60-80 hours depending on requirement complexity
IT/Technical Contact20 hours

Conga guidance is limited to:

  • Two x 1 hour weekly check-in meetings
  • Four x 1 hour consultation meetings
  • One x 2 hour final pre-work review meeting.
  • Additional consulting will require a new SOW.

Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of project.

Plan - A Project kickoff readiness review is conducted. The predefined Project plan is shared and updated as necessary and agreed upon between Customer and Conga, and a kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to section 6.4 for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.

Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase uses agile methodology to configure the defined scope. It consists of three (3) sprints. The scope of the solution offering is shared and explained to the Customer. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 2.3 ‘Use Case Scope’ is reviewed and agreed upon in writing. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements by end of each sprint for the scope of the sprint. The solution is configured, and deployment plan is developed. Conga will test and verify the solution.

UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured according to agreed requirements and design.

Launch/Hypercare - Deployment of the solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment.

Conga will utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Microsoft Project, Confluence, JIRA, Zephyr, Bitbucket.

4. Project Plan 

Conga will contact Customer within three (3) weeks of SOW Effective Date to establish a Project start date. The Project start date will be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties (email sufficient).

Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Readiness Phase and Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.

The Project Plan will be constructed based on the known requirements, estimated effort, and scope set forth herein this Statement of Work. The Project Plan will be confirmed, updated as necessary, and agreed upon with the Customer after the Customer Readiness Phase is completed and during the Plan Phase. If Customer cannot meet the timeline obligations in the agreed timeline and/or delays Conga’s work due to no fault of Conga, Customer agrees to purchase an Accelerator Add-o n 20 Hour Block SKU for each week of delay.

Project Plan duration: The baseline Project Plan timeline is 8 Weeks (7 Weeks from Project Kick-off to Launch plus 1 Week of Hypercare). Any extension beyond the allocated Project Plan of -7 weeks will require a new SOW or purchase of Accelerator Add-on 20 Hour Blocks. Accelerator Add-Ons may increase the timeline of the project as noted in the applicable CLM Accelerator Add-On Amendment Statement of Work and an updated Project Plan timeline will be established and agreed upon between Conga and Customer. Extensions for the project shall not exceed 20 weeks from the project start. A new SOW is required for an extension beyond 20 weeks.

For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays.

4.1 Customer Readiness

The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last up to four (4) weeks, however, this is dependent on the Customer’s state of readiness and ability to provide the data and requirements noted in Section 3.0, and is not included in the Project Plan timeline.

4.2 Kickoff

The Project Kick-off and Project Plan timeline will start upon completion of the Customer Readiness phase.

4.3 Go-Live

“Go-Live” refers to the on-boarding of users to the Conga in the Production environment.

  • A single go-live event is in scope. Additional go-lives are not in scope and any functionality that is mutually agreed to be deferred from the single go-live is no longer part of the scope of this SOW.
  • Go-Live occurs after migration of the Conga solution to the Production environment.
  • Customer will be responsible for Go-live planning with guidance from Conga as outlined in this SOW.
  • Conga assumes Customer’s information technology policies that govern the deployment of Conga solution to the Production environment and the go-live of new information technology, will not extend the Project Plan described herein via a delay in the deployment or Go-Live of the Conga solution.

4.4 Hypercare Period

“Hypercare Period” refers to the period and services following the Go-Live of the Conga solution.

  • For a release of the Conga solution, the Hypercare Period begins at Go-Live and concludes after five (5) business days, i.e. one (1) week.
  • For clarity, issues identified after the Hypercare Period will be addressed per the terms set forth in Customer’s applicable subscription agreement with Conga (i.e. Customer’s purchased level of Technical Support in the MSSA and applicable Order or Order Form).

Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following An (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Appendix B – Glossary of Terms

Agreement Types: And Agreement Type such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.

Page Layout: A Page Layout is a specific view within Salesforce that is specific to an data object and displays relevant meta-data, related lists, actions, and links to other related functions. Within the CLM Accelerator, one page layout will be provided and configured for each Agreement Type in scope.

Process Flows: Process Flows are defined end-to-end flows a contract lifecycle and include pre-configured automated steps to guide a user through the contract process. Flows can contain steps to require approvals, change the process stage, hide/display action buttons, and send email notifications to users to take action. The CLM Accelerator contains three pre-configured Process Flows in scope.

Out of the Box (OOTB): Out of the Box is defined generally as immediate usability or functionality of a newly purchased software. Conga CLM provides vast functionality that is immediately usable or can be usable with only Administrative enablement or configuration. For example, Conga CLM provides a button for generating Agreement Document using a template based on customer business needs. Conga will configure the correct template to be used. This functionality of document generation and saving the generated document attached to the Agreement record is considered as "out of the box".

Agreement Activation: Agreement activation is Conga CLM functionality which allows the end-user to purge or save redlined versions and identify the executed Agreement for Storage & Search. Users can use a wizard to manually to go through screens and decide which Agreements to keep, or use automation logic which is included in the Accelerator. This automation reduces the cycle time and manual steps.

Customer Branding: "Customer Branding" is image/logo, signature format, and additional verbiage such as a confidentiality statement with certain sizing that is to be included in the email template header/footer. The email body has relevant Agreement details pre-configured for Accelerator.

Notify Only: This is a type of email notification specifically for Approval processes. A “Notify Only" email allows additional recipient(s) to be informed for the Approval process initiated. No action is expected from the recipient.

Signature Tag: eSignature software provides for a signature block that contains specific data fields(tags) that are necessary to be shown on the contract for each signing party.

Delivery Assurance: Delivery Assurance is a Conga Professional Services internal review process to assure our projects are following the Conga Implementation Methodology (CIM). CIM is comprised of phases, artifacts, governance, and deliverables based on a structured project plan applicable for the CLM Accelerator.

Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

ResourceEstimated Time Necessary During Customer Readiness Phase
Project Manager/Coordinator20 hours
Legal/Business Subject Matter Experts60-80 hours depending on requirement complexity
IT/Technical Contact20 hours

Conga guidance is limited to:

  • Two x 1 hour weekly check-in meetings
  • Four x 1 hour consultation meetings
  • One x 2 hour final pre-work review meeting.
  • Additional consulting will require a new SOW.

Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of project.

Plan - A Project kickoff readiness review is conducted. The predefined Project plan is shared and updated as necessary and agreed upon between Customer and Conga, and a kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to section 6.4 for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.

Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase uses agile methodology to configure the defined scope. It consists of three (3) sprints. The scope of the solution offering is shared and explained to the Customer. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 2.3 ‘Use Case Scope’ is reviewed and agreed upon in writing. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements by end of each sprint for the scope of the sprint. The solution is configured, and deployment plan is developed. Conga will test and verify the solution.

UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured according to agreed requirements and design.

Launch/Hypercare - Deployment of the solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment.

Conga will utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Microsoft Project, Confluence, JIRA, Zephyr, Bitbucket.

4. Project Plan 

Conga will contact Customer within three (3) weeks of SOW Effective Date to establish a Project start date. The Project start date will be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties (email sufficient).

Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Readiness Phase and Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.

The Project Plan will be constructed based on the known requirements, estimated effort, and scope set forth herein this Statement of Work. The Project Plan will be confirmed, updated as necessary, and agreed upon with the Customer after the Customer Readiness Phase is completed and during the Plan Phase. If Customer cannot meet the timeline obligations in the agreed timeline and/or delays Conga’s work due to no fault of Conga, Customer agrees to purchase an Accelerator Add-o n 20 Hour Block SKU for each week of delay.

Project Plan duration: The baseline Project Plan timeline is 8 Weeks (7 Weeks from Project Kick-off to Launch plus 1 Week of Hypercare). Any extension beyond the allocated Project Plan of -7 weeks will require a new SOW or purchase of Accelerator Add-on 20 Hour Blocks. Accelerator Add-Ons may increase the timeline of the project as noted in the applicable CLM Accelerator Add-On Amendment Statement of Work and an updated Project Plan timeline will be established and agreed upon between Conga and Customer.

For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays.

4.1 Customer Readiness

The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last up to four (4) weeks, however, this is dependent on the Customer’s state of readiness and ability to provide the data and requirements noted in Section 3.0, and is not included in the Project Plan timeline.

4.2 Kickoff

The Project Kick-off and Project Plan timeline will start upon completion of the Customer Readiness phase.

4.3 Go-Live

  • A single go-live event is in scope. Additional go-lives are not in scope and any functionality that is mutually agreed to be deferred from the single go-live is no longer part of the scope of this SOW.
  • Go-Live occurs after migration of the Conga solution to the Production environment.
  • Customer will be responsible for Go-live planning with guidance from Conga as outlined in this SOW.
  • Conga assumes Customer’s information technology policies that govern the deployment of Conga solution to the Production environment and the go-live of new information technology, will not extend the Project Plan described herein via a delay in the deployment or Go-Live of the Conga solution.

4.4 Hypercare Period

“Hypercare Period” refers to the period and services following the Go-Live of the Conga solution.

  • For a release of the Conga solution, the Hypercare Period begins at Go-Live and concludes after five (5) business days, i.e. one (1) week.
  • For clarity, issues identified after the Hypercare Period will be addressed per the terms set forth in Customer’s applicable subscription agreement with Conga (i.e. Customer’s purchased level of Technical Support in the MSSA and applicable Order or Order Form).

Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions

Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions (referred to as “Platform”)

Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.

Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features and capability provided by the Platform, e.g. the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,

Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following An (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Appendix B – Glossary of Terms

Agreement Types: And Agreement Type such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.

Page Layout: A Page Layout is a specific view within Salesforce that is specific to an data object and displays relevant meta-data, related lists, actions, and links to other related functions. Within the CLM Accelerator, one page layout will be provided and configured for each Agreement Type in scope.

Process Flows: Process Flows are defined end-to-end flows a contract lifecycle and include pre-configured automated steps to guide a user through the contract process. Flows can contain steps to require approvals, change the process stage, hide/display action buttons, and send email notifications to users to take action. The CLM Accelerator contains three pre-configured Process Flows in scope.

Out of the Box (OOTB): Out of the Box is defined generally as immediate usability or functionality of a newly purchased software. Conga CLM provides vast functionality that is immediately usable or can be usable with only Administrative enablement or configuration. For example, Conga CLM provides a button for generating Agreement Document using a template based on customer business needs. Conga will configure the correct template to be used. This functionality of document generation and saving the generated document attached to the Agreement record is considered as "out of the box".

Agreement Activation: Agreement activation is Conga CLM functionality which allows the end-user to purge or save redlined versions and identify the executed Agreement for Storage & Search. Users can use a wizard to manually to go through screens and decide which Agreements to keep, or use automation logic which is included in the Accelerator. This automation reduces the cycle time and manual steps.

Customer Branding: "Customer Branding" is image/logo, signature format, and additional verbiage such as a confidentiality statement with certain sizing that is to be included in the email template header/footer. The email body has relevant Agreement details pre-configured for Accelerator.

Notify Only: This is a type of email notification specifically for Approval processes. A “Notify Only" email allows additional recipient(s) to be informed for the Approval process initiated. No action is expected from the recipient.

Signature Tag: eSignature software provides for a signature block that contains specific data fields(tags) that are necessary to be shown on the contract for each signing party.

Delivery Assurance: Delivery Assurance is a Conga Professional Services internal review process to assure our projects are following the Conga Implementation Methodology (CIM). CIM is comprised of phases, artifacts, governance, and deliverables based on a structured project plan applicable for the CLM Accelerator.

Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

ResourceEstimated Time Necessary During Customer Readiness Phase
Project Manager/Coordinator20 hours
Legal/Business Subject Matter Experts60-80 hours depending on requirement complexity
IT/Technical Contact20 hours

Conga guidance is limited to:

  • Two x 1 hour weekly check-in meetings, two x 2 hour consultation meetings and one x 2 hour final pre-work review meeting. Additional consulting will require a new SOW.

Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of project.

Plan - A Project kickoff readiness review is conducted. The predefined Project plan is shared and updated as necessary, and kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to section 6.4 for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan Phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.

Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase uses agile methodology to configure the defined scope. It consists of three (3) sprints. The scope of the solution offering is shared and explained to the Customer. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 2.3 ‘Use Case Scope’ is reviewed and agreed upon in writing. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements by end of each sprint for the scope of the sprint. The solution is configured, and deployment plan is developed. Conga will test and verify the solution.

UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured according to agreed requirements and design.

Launch/Hypercare - Deployment of the solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment.

Conga will utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Microsoft Project, Confluence, JIRA, Zephyr, Bitbucket.

4. Project Plan 

Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.

As of the Effective Date, the known requirements, estimates effort, and scope the following Project Plan (“Project Plan”) is anticipated for Conga solution delivery. The Project Plan will be confirmed after the design phase. Any adjustments to the Project Plan (e.g. change in agreement type; scope changes) may require a new SOW.

Project Plan duration: The baseline Project Plan timeline is 6-8 Weeks (6-8 Weeks from Project Kick-off to Launch plus 1 Week of Hypercare). Any extension beyond the allocated Project Plan of -8 weeks will require a new SOW. The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last between 2 to 4 weeks, however this is dependent on the Customer’s state of readiness and ability to provide the data and requirements noted in Section 3.0 and is not included in the Project Plan timeline. Accelerator Add-Ons may increase the timeline of the project as noted in the applicable CLM Accelerator Add-On Amendment Statement of Work and an updated Project Plan timeline will be established.

For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays.

7. Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions

Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions (referred to as “Platform”)

Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.

Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features and capability provided by the Platform, e.g. the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,

Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following An (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Appendix B – Glossary of Terms

Agreement Types: And Agreement Type such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.

Page Layout: A Page Layout is a specific view within Salesforce that is specific to an data object and displays relevant meta-data, related lists, actions, and links to other related functions. Within the CLM Accelerator, one page layout will be provided and configured for each Agreement Type in scope.

Process Flows: Process Flows are defined end-to-end flows a contract lifecycle and include pre-configured automated steps to guide a user through the contract process. Flows can contain steps to require approvals, change the process stage, hide/display action buttons, and send email notifications to users to take action. The CLM Accelerator contains three pre-configured Process Flows in scope.

Out of the Box (OOTB): Out of the Box is defined generally as immediate usability or functionality of a newly purchased software. Conga CLM provides vast functionality that is immediately usable or can be usable with only Administrative enablement or configuration. For example, Conga CLM provides a button for generating Agreement Document using a template based on customer business needs. Conga will configure the correct template to be used. This functionality of document generation and saving the generated document attached to the Agreement record is considered as "out of the box".

Agreement Activation: Agreement activation is Conga CLM functionality which allows the end-user to purge or save redlined versions and identify the executed Agreement for Storage & Search. Users can use a wizard to manually to go through screens and decide which Agreements to keep, or use automation logic which is included in the Accelerator. This automation reduces the cycle time and manual steps.

Customer Branding: "Customer Branding" is image/logo, signature format, and additional verbiage such as a confidentiality statement with certain sizing that is to be included in the email template header/footer. The email body has relevant Agreement details pre-configured for Accelerator.

Notify Only: This is a type of email notification specifically for Approval processes. A “Notify Only" email allows additional recipient(s) to be informed for the Approval process initiated. No action is expected from the recipient.

Signature Tag: eSignature software provides for a signature block that contains specific data fields(tags) that are necessary to be shown on the contract for each signing party.

Delivery Assurance: Delivery Assurance is a Conga Professional Services internal review process to assure our projects are following the Conga Implementation Methodology (CIM). CIM is comprised of phases, artifacts, governance, and deliverables based on a structured project plan applicable for the CLM Accelerator.

Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

conga-contracts-accelerator-sow-methodology

The phases are outlined below:

Customer Readiness – The customer will prepare and provide necessary data and key requirements in order to kick-off the project. Conga will provide guidance and templates for the collection of the data and requirements during the Customer Readiness phase. Conga guidance is limited to:

  • Two x 1 hour weekly check-in meetings, two x 2 hour consultation meetings and one x 2 hour final pre-work review meeting. Additional consulting will require a new SOW.

Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of project.

Plan - A Project kickoff readiness review is conducted. The predefined Project plan is shared, and kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to section 6.4 for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan Phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.

Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase uses agile methodology to configure the defined scope. It consists of three (3) sprints. The scope of the solution offering is shared and explained to the Customer. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 2.3 ‘Use Case Scope’ is reviewed and agreed upon in writing. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements by end of each sprint for the scope of the sprint. The solution is configured, and deployment plan is developed. Conga will test and verify the solution.

UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured according to agreed requirements and design.

Launch/Hypercare - Deployment of the solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment.

Conga will utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Microsoft Project, Confluence, JIRA, Zephyr, Bitbucket.

4. Project Plan

Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.

As of the Effective Date, the known requirements, estimates effort, and scope the following Project Plan (“Project Plan”) is anticipated for Conga solution delivery. The Project Plan will be confirmed after the design phase. Any adjustments to the Project Plan (e.g. change in agreement type; scope changes) may require a new SOW.

Maximum Project Plan duration: 6 Weeks (5 Weeks to Launch plus 1 Week of Hypercare). Any extension beyond the allocated Project Plan 6 weeks will require a new SOW. The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last 2 weeks, however this is dependent on the Customer and is not included in the Project Plan timeline. Accelerator Add-Ons may increase the timeline of the project as noted in the applicable CLM Accelerator Add-On Amendment Statement of Work.

For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays. 

4.1 Kickoff

Conga will contact Customer within three (3) weeks of SOW Effective Date to establish a Project start date. The Project start date will be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties (email sufficient).

4.2 Go-Live

“Go-Live” refers to the on-boarding of users to the Conga in the Production environment.

  • A single go-live event is in scope. Additional go-lives are not in scope and any functionality that is mutually agreed to be deferred from the single go-live is no longer part of the scope of this SOW.
  • Go-Live occurs after migration of the Conga solution to the Production environment.
  • Customer will be responsible for Go-live planning with guidance from Conga as outlined in this SOW.
  • Conga assumes Customer’s information technology policies that govern the deployment of Conga solution to the Production environment and the go-live of new information technology, will not extend the Project Plan described herein via a delay in the deployment or Go-Live of the Conga solution.

4.3 Hypercare Period

“Hypercare Period” refers to the period and services following the Go-Live of the Conga solution.

  • For a release of the Conga solution, the Hypercare Period begins at Go-Live and concludes after five (5) business days, i.e. one (1) week.
  • For clarity, issues identified after the Hypercare Period will be addressed per the terms set forth in Customer’s applicable subscription agreement with Conga (i.e. Customer’s purchased level of Technical Support in the MSSA and applicable Order or Order Form).

7. Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions

Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions (referred to as “Platform”)

Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.

Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features and capability provided by the Platform, e.g. the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,

Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following An (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Appendix B – Glossary of Terms

Agreement Types: And Agreement Type such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.

Page Layout: A Page Layout is a specific view within Salesforce that is specific to an data object and displays relevant meta-data, related lists, actions, and links to other related functions. Within the CLM Accelerator, one page layout will be provided and configured for each Agreement Type in scope.

Process Flows: Process Flows are defined end-to-end flows a contract lifecycle and include pre-configured automated steps to guide a user through the contract process. Flows can contain steps to require approvals, change the process stage, hide/display action buttons, and send email notifications to users to take action. The CLM Accelerator contains three pre-configured Process Flows in scope.

Out of the Box (OOTB): Out of the Box is defined generally as immediate usability or functionality of a newly purchased software. Conga CLM provides vast functionality that is immediately usable or can be usable with only Administrative enablement or configuration. For example, Conga CLM provides a button for generating Agreement Document using a template based on customer business needs. Conga will configure the correct template to be used. This functionality of document generation and saving the generated document attached to the Agreement record is considered as "out of the box".

Agreement Activation: Agreement activation is Conga CLM functionality which allows the end-user to purge or save redlined versions and identify the executed Agreement for Storage & Search. Users can use a wizard to manually to go through screens and decide which Agreements to keep, or use automation logic which is included in the Accelerator. This automation reduces the cycle time and manual steps.

Customer Branding: "Customer Branding" is image/logo, signature format, and additional verbiage such as a confidentiality statement with certain sizing that is to be included in the email template header/footer. The email body has relevant Agreement details pre-configured for Accelerator.

Notify Only: This is a type of email notification specifically for Approval processes. A “Notify Only" email allows additional recipient(s) to be informed for the Approval process initiated. No action is expected from the recipient.

Signature Tag: eSignature software provides for a signature block that contains specific data fields(tags) that are necessary to be shown on the contract for each signing party.

Delivery Assurance: Delivery Assurance is a Conga Professional Services internal review process to assure our projects are following the Conga Implementation Methodology (CIM). CIM is comprised of phases, artifacts, governance, and deliverables based on a structured project plan applicable for the CLM Accelerator.

Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

conga-contracts-accelerator-sow-methodology

The phases are outlined below:

Customer Readiness – The customer will prepare and provide necessary data and key requirements in order to kick-off the project. Conga will provide guidance and templates for the collection of the data and requirements during the Customer Readiness phase. Conga guidance is limited to:

  • Two x 1 hour weekly check-in meetings, two x 2 hour consultation meetings and one x 2 hour final pre-work review meeting. Additional consulting will require a new SOW.

Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of project.

Plan - A Project kickoff readiness review is conducted. The predefined Project plan is shared, and kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to section 6.4 for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan Phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.

Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase uses agile methodology to configure the defined scope. It consists of three (3) sprints. The scope of the solution offering is shared and explained to the Customer. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 2.3 ‘Use Case Scope’ is reviewed and agreed upon in writing. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements by end of each sprint for the scope of the sprint. The solution is configured, and deployment plan is developed. Conga will test and verify the solution.

UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured according to agreed requirements and design.

Launch/Hypercare - Deployment of the solution to production and one week of Hypercare

Conga will utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Microsoft Project, Confluence, JIRA, Zephyr, Bitbucket.

Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions

Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions (referred to as “Platform”)

Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.

Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features and capability provided by the Platform, e.g. the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,

Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following An (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions

Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions (referred to as “Platform”)

Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.

Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features and capability provided by the Platform, e.g. the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,

Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following three (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.

Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live, unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.

Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.

Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices and policies.

Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.

Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.

Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.

The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following three (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:

  • Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
  • Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
  • Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment

While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full-copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.
