General Approach. The ACP States shall determine the development principles, strategies and models of their economies and societies in all sovereignty. They shall establish, with the Community, the cooperation programmes provided for under this Agreement. However, the parties recognise the complementary role of and potential for contributions by non-State actors, ACP national parliaments and local decentralised authorities to the development process, particularly at the national and regional levels. To this end, under the conditions laid down in this Agreement, non-State actors, ACP national parliaments and local decentralised authorities, shall, where appropriate: – be informed and involved in consultation on cooperation policies and strategies, on priorities for cooperation especially in areas that concern or directly affect them, and on the political dialogue; – be provided with capacity-building support in critical areas in order to reinforce the capabilities of these actors, particularly as regards organisation and representation, and the establishment of consultation mechanisms including channels of communication and dialogue, and to promote strategic alliances.

General Approach. The mission of the State business program and initiative being analyzed drives our approach. We understand the unique nature of each project and recognize that our ability to develop solutions from our broad experience is what qualifies us to serve the State under this proposed contract. By approaching each project as an opportunity to collaborate with the Agency/Department, we ensure stakeholder voices are heard and use the experience of State personnel to build our specific approach. Our CPAs and other consultants each have their own industry specializations and expertise, and our exceptional results begin by assembling the best team to meet your specific needs. By combining our skilled project managers and visionaries with our subject matter experts, we ensure technical expertise is embedded at every step of the project. While we can, and do, subcontract with third parties when specific technical expertise outside of our employee base is needed, we are much more than a firm of project managers. 13 The project is planned in consultation with client personnel, and specific milestones and deliverables are established. We assign our personnel and work through the agreed-upon milestones, providing regular updates to the client based on the desires of the contracting party. When obstacles are encountered, we work around them where possible or consult promptly with the client to find the best path forward. Our studies, analyses, scenarios, and reports relating to mission-oriented business programs and initiatives include THF gaining a detailed understanding of the regulatory (and/or statutory) environment within which the program operates, as well as doing our own research into the potential obstacles facing the program or initiative. Our emphasis on quality benefits our State clients greatly. Where called for, written reports by THF are subjected to an internal independent quality control review. Having an experienced, senior professional who is otherwise unaffiliated with the project review the report helps ensure our approach was sound, our findings and recommendations are clear, and all reporting requirements have been met. Where the client’s timeline allows, we also build in enough time for thorough client review of our “draft” findings and recommendations. Under this approach State clients are better able to take ownership of the final study, analysis, scenario, or reported results. We find this increases the buy-in of client personnel and stakeholders n...

General Approach. With the exception of “protects”, as set out above, lay-offs shall be in order of seniority within the disciplines. The Company recognizes its enhanced obligation to employees who have served for extended periods. Pursuant to this enhanced obligation, employees with at least twenty (20) years of service with the Company will be entitled to up to six (6) months training (formal and/or informal) to allow them to displace more junior employees whom they would not otherwise be qualified to displace. The training will be provided in the discipline determined by the Company, in consultation with the employee. If an employee chooses not to be trained, they will be subject to lay- off. The Joint Lay-off Committee will review all such cases. The Parties recognize that employees are deemed proficient in one discipline in accordance with the Discipline Inventory System. For clarity, it is understood that an employee selected for layoff from the Company shall not have the right to displace another employee outside of their recognized discipline.
General Approach. The general approach taken in this model lease is to specify exactly what is to be put on the building in question – typically a cell (or wireless internet) antenna – such that the property owner’s reasonable expectations are met, with changes only allowed with the owner’s written approval. Thus the model lease specifies that the antennas can only be used for cellular (or wireless internet) service and requires that the antennas and equipment enclosure comply with the engineering drawings that are to be attached to the lease as Exhibit B, as well as any photo simulations of the antennas in place (Exhibit D to the lease) that have been provided. This helps prevent the property owner from being told that the antennas will be of a certain type, shape, and color so as to blend with the existing building and be unobtrusive antennas and ending up with something different. By contrast, the first drafts of leases offered by cell companies typically have no restrictions, such that they might claim they could put any type of radio station, TV or communications antennas or antennas on the property in question, and not harmonize with the building, contrary to the property owner’s expectations. Comments on other specific provisions are as follows.

General Approach. The general approach taken in this model lease is to specify exactly what is to be put on the property in question – typically a cell (or wireless internet) tower – such that the property owner’s reasonable expectations are met, with changes only allowed with the owner’s written approval. Thus the model lease specifies that the site and tower can only be used for cellular (or wireless internet) service and requires the tower and site to comply with the engineering drawings that are to be attached to the lease as Exhibit B, as well as any photo simulations of the tower (Exhibit D to the lease) that have been provided. This helps prevent the property owner from being told that the tower will be of a certain type, height and color with only one set of unobtrusive antennas and ending up with something different. By contrast, the first drafts of leases offered by cell companies typically have no restrictions, such that they might claim they could put any type of radio station, TV or communications antennas or tower on the property in question, far in excess of the property owner’s expectations. Comments on other specific provisions are as follows.
General Approach. Ceridian’s general project approach to providing the Implementation Services is based on the concept of shared project responsibility, resulting in a cooperative, hands-on project that is jointly managed by Ceridian and Client. Ceridian works with Client to plan the project – its scope, schedule and resources. During the project planning phase, the Parties will agree upon their respective roles and responsibilities, which will be confirmed in writing and need to be completed in accordance with the agreed upon schedule in order for the Implementation Services to be delivered successfully and within the desired timeline set forth in the project plan. Ceridian will educate Client’s resources on how to maintain the Subscribed Modules so that Client will become self- sufficient with the functionality of the Subscribed Modules.
