Bpo And Cloud Computing Contract Structure

Bpo And Cloud Computing Contract Structure There will be provision of a well-defined scope that includes proper identification of each proposed process. The contract should have a defined timeframe for how long the contract will be in effect, acknowledgment of project risks and how much it can run the company, whether there is flexibility in the budget and will we be guided by the scope or budget. With all these factors being addressed, the pricing structure most suitable for the proposed processes is the Unit-cost contract.

Technical capability – the vendor will have the responsibility of providing strong the highly required strong technical support associated with data centers. Reputation/Experience/References – A company’s reputation is one of their strongest attributes. After we do our due diligence, we will determine that the vendor’s record can uphold to what we are seeking. Production capacity – Productivity along with efficiency is the key. The vendor should be able to produce a quality service. Business size and type – We need to analyze the business size and type to also ensure that they are qualified to carry our data weight.
