Javelin PDM Services Terms & Conditions
Hardware, Software, and Operating System Minimum Requirements
In advance of the scheduled services, customers must ensure that their hardware, software, and operating systems meet the minimum requirements, including SQL licensing requirements as applicable to your project. In the event that your server(s) and/or workstation(s) are not ready when the Javelin consultant meets with you to perform services work, any additional time required by Javelin to help you install or configure your server(s) or workstation(s) may result in additional out-of-scope charges and/or rescheduling fees. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us well in advance of the scheduled services.
Latest system requirements:
- SOLIDWORKS PDM system requirements
- SOLIDWORKS PDM / Manage server hardware requirements
- 3DEXPERIENCE Works projects should meet DS SOLIDWORKS requirements as well as bandwidth and latency criteria
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us well in advance of the scheduled services.
Customer 'Administrator' Team Members
We strongly recommend that the customer assigns two (2) team members to act as primary and secondary "administrator" team members. These primary and secondary administrators are needed to provide guidance and make decisions with respect to the implementation. The secondary contact person should be able to make project decisions if the primary contact person is not available during scheduled activities. Decisions by either of the points of contact will be considered to be the final decisions of the customer.
Customer IT Personnel Participation
In addition to the two (2) administrator points of contact for the project, the customer must involve their IT team members, as required, to ensure availability and access to Windows User accounts that have Administrative and Installation permissions on the customer’s systems when required. Delays waiting for such access may result in additional charges and/or rescheduling fees. If the customer is using an outsourced IT firm, the customer is required to ensure co-ordination with necessary outsource personnel.
NOTE: Does not apply to 3DEXPERIENCE Works Projects.
Project Kick-Off
Upon receipt of a purchase order for Javelin PDM Services, the Javelin Services Operations Manager will be in contact with you to schedule the project activities. Although the project can be kicked off within a week or two of purchase, the full implementation services work is typically scheduled 4-6 weeks (or more) from the date of purchase in order to allow enough time for the customer to get software and hardware upgraded (if required) and team members organized.
Rescheduling or Cancellation
Javelin understands that circumstances sometimes change and scheduled events may need to be canceled or rescheduled. If the customer needs to cancel or reschedule the service call (web/phone/visit) with little advance notice, the following charges may apply:
- Over 10 Days Notice – no charge
- Less than 10 Days and greater than 24 hours - $500
- Less than 24 hours - $1,800 or the entire scheduled days, whichever is greater
Rescheduling of events is subject to our team's existing schedule and availability.
Should Javelin need to reschedule a services call or meeting, we will provide a minimum of 10 days notice unless the situation involves factors outside of our control such as weather, flight cancellations, or similar.
Project Scope
To keep your project on schedule and on budget, Javelin will be adhering to the Project Scope as defined in the Statement of Work and/or Quotation. Should your requirements change during (or after) the project, or should Javelin encounter significant unexpected complications that require more time than estimated, we reserve the right to request more billable time to complete the project. Any necessary scope changes by either party must be tracked, managed, and approved by both parties by way of a written Project Change Request via email or document.
Project Completion Acceptance
When a project is completed by the Javelin Services Team, the customer will be provided with a Work Sign-off Sheet. We request that the customer signs off on the project within 10 business days of receipt in order to acknowledge the satisfactory completion of the work.
During the 10-day period, the customer is responsible for testing and validating that the solution is in compliance with the original Statement of Work (SOW) or Quotation.
If Javelin has not received the completed sign-off sheet and if we have not been notified in writing of some discrepancy with the planned deliverables, we will consider the implementation complete and approved (“signed-off”) by the customer after the 10-day validation period.
Warranty On Services Completed
During the 10-day customer testing and verification period, Javelin will provide maintenance and support for the developed implementation and this includes all issues that are within the scope of work in the Statement of Work or Quotation. Billable services may be required for any new or out-of-scope functionality or for any time required to correct or repair any changes made by any party other than Javelin to the product implementation.
Weekends, Holidays, and After Hours
Javelin projects are based on normal business hours of 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM Eastern Time, Monday through Friday. For project work to be delivered after normal business hours, on Weekends, or on Holidays, an $800 flat fee (per session, up to a day) will be charged in addition to the standard cost of the service.
Travel Time
Most of Javelin’s services are provided remotely. If on-site work is requested additional travel costs will apply and time spent traveling to the customer site is billed/consumed at 0.5 times the normal rate.
Billing Schedule
Javelin will invoice for services on a monthly basis and the services will be billed at the proportion that have been completed to date.
For instance, if two (2) days of five (5) days of services have been completed as of the billing date, an invoice for 2/5 of the total amount will be created.
