Continuous Improvement Initiatives. The NSSC adopted Lean Six Sigma (L6S) as its formal approach and methodology for continuous improvement. The L6S approach to improving the performance of shared services processes is enabling the NSSC to transform service performance, enhance customer satisfaction, and improve the “bottom line.” The emphasis on rigorously establishing and then aligning towards customer requirements is particularly significant for shared services. In order to reduce operational costs, the NSSC must introduce innovation and employ consistent processes to provide cost-effective services. During FY16, the NSSC will continue to employ innovation and continuous improvement methodologies to improve and enhance service experience as well as to identify cost drivers and other factors that drive the most efficient and cost effective methods for delivering services. Key areas of opportunity in FY16 include: (1) efforts to optimize Information Technology (IT) Infrastructure support operations— ServiceNow Migration stabilization, ServiceNow enhancements for continuous service improvement, and Data Center optimization, (2) Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) e-Invoicing capability implementation within the accounts payable process in partnership with the NEACC, (3) leveraging the Enterprise Service Desk (ESD) investment by transitioning/integrating Center Help Desks, (4) Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) transition, and (5) continuing to enhance the customer experience through greater use of mobile technologies.

  • Substantial Completion “Substantial Completion” means the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work, or designated portions thereof, may still require minor modifications or adjustments but, in the Owner’s opinion, the Work has progressed to the point such that all parts of the Work under consideration are fully operational and usable for intended purposes, as evidenced by a Certificate of Substantial Completion approved by the Owner. If a Certificate of Occupancy is required by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work, said certificate shall be issued before the Work or any portion thereof is considered substantially complete. When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor shall notify Owner’s Designated Representative (sometimes referred to as the “ODR”) and request a determination as to whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the ODR does not consider the Work substantially complete, the ODR will notify the Contractor giving reasons therefore. Failure on the Owner’s part to list a reason does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. After satisfactorily completing items identified by Owner’s Designated Representative, the Contractor shall then submit another request for the ODR to determine Substantial Completion. If The ODR considers the Work substantially complete, The ODR will prepare and deliver a certificate of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial Completion, shall include a punch list of items to be completed or corrected before final completion and final payment, shall establish the time within which the Contractor shall finish the punch list, and shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and the Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work, warranty and insurance. Failure to include an item on the punch list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The certificate of Substantial Completion shall be signed by the Owner and the Contractor to evidence acceptance of the responsibilities assigned to them in such certificate. Substantial Completion (as defined in this agreement) for all stages of the Work shall be achieved on or before the following Substantial Completion date: DATE FOR SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION: TBD Under no circumstances will the time for Substantial Completion exceed this date without a written amendment to this Agreement.

If the total cost of Tenant’s Work exceeds Forty-Five Dollars ($45) per rentable square foot of the Additional Premises, then Tenant shall pay the overage as and when due.
