Common use of Team Structure Clause in Contracts

Team Structure. A Guidewire team generally consists of at least one functional and one technical consultant. At times there are additional functional and technical consultants assigned to a project. One functional consultant will be named the Guidewire Project Manager and one technical consultant will be named the Guidewire Technical Lead. The Guidewire Project Manager is responsible for all Guidewire recommendations and decisions related to the project, considering input from Guidewire team members, customer team members, and other Guidewire colleagues as appropriate. The Guidewire Project Manager reports to a Program Manager who is responsible for several Guidewire projects. Guidewire technical consultants report to a Principal Integration Architect who is responsible for the technical aspects of several Guidewire projects. At times the Program Manager and the Principal Integration Architect may be assigned to the project for several days a month, as approved by the customer. In addition, specialized consultants in areas such as infrastructure or conversion may also be assigned to the project on a part-time or full-time basis. The Preliminary Consulting Estimate includes a suggested budget for these consultants, which may be refined during the Project Inception phase. Program Managers, Principal Integration Architects, and specialized consultants are only assigned as agreed upon by the customer and Guidewire. The dedicated Guidewire team generally works on the customer site for a majority of their days on a project and works at a Guidewire location or a home office on the remaining days.
