Exhibit "A''
STATEMENT OF WORK
IrHl\lG Su PO
In addition to the change management activities included in the original Statement of Work, the
following services outline the activities that will be needed to support the project's implementation
team as well as the City's business teams.
• Project Team Training Support: Work with the City and the software vendor to ensure
adequate training is provided to all the subject matter experts as well as the more casual
users of the system. Participate in the training to capture any relevant discussions that
may impact business process decisions, provide business process guidance during
training, determine if knowledge is being transferred to the City personnel, track any
homework/assignments that are given to the City personnel and begin to formulate
training content strategy.
Deliverables: Updated Training Plan
Training Participation (up to 80 hours, billed on hourly basis)
• Project Team Testing Support: Work with the City to support the remaining testing
efforts to ensure that the test cases, procedures and data for each software module reflect
the business processes of each department, but also requirements identified during the
vendor evaluation phase to ensure the City is not left with major functional gaps. Support
includes working with the business users to complete the testing process and assist with
script and other testing documentation updates.
Deliverables: UAT Testing Support (up to 40 hours available, billed on hourly
basis)
• Custom documentation/job aides: Because the vendor documentation is developed
with all clients in mind, it may not contain the same terminology used by the City and does
not fully reflect the business processes of the City. Asian Consulting will work closely with
the City to modify vendor documentation so it makes sense to the users at the City. The
modified documentation will be simplified to include screen shots, step-by-step
instructions that reflect the unique business workflows and change management topics
identified during the project. Another area of documentation is the development of
customized test scripts that mimic each of the processes encountered by the City's
departments on a daily basis. These scripts can later be refined and used as desktop
reference manuals to assist users as they continue to become more familiar with the
system. They can also be used to aide in new user/employee training. To date, system
documentation has been developed, our team will incorporate any relevant business
processes and job aides.
Deliverables: Custom documentation including test scripts (up to 10 business
unit processes)
Job Aides (up to 10 business unit processes)
Business Process Review (up to 80 hours, billed on hourly basis)
Business Process Training (up to 80 hours, billed on hourly basis)
