Examples include: Staff augmentation services; Time and material services; Web hosting; Automated network monitoring or any other service provided principally through an automated process; Hardware maintenance and support; Software maintenance and support; Ongoing maintenance and support; Services priced on a per asset basis; Services priced on a contingency basis; Equipment maintenance; Prepackaged training courses; E-Learning; Managed services; Acquisition of equipment (hardware) Acquisition of software, either Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software or pre-existing software; Acquisition of non-consulting services, such as network provisioning, voice services (local, long- distance), or video bridging; Cloud based or “As a Service” offerings, including but not limited to SaaS, IaaS, PaaS, and XaaS; Any offering that is a combination of equipment, hardware, software, cloud or “as a service offerings”; and Consulting or other installation work which is considered Public Works is excluded from purchase under the scope of this Contract. Historically, the New York State Bureau of Public Works has maintained that installation, maintenance and repair of equipment attached to any wall, ceiling or floor or affixed by hard wiring or plumbing is public work. In contrast, installation of a piece of equipment which is portable or a “plug-in” free-standing unit would not be considered public work. Thus, this Contract does not authorize installation where the equipment becomes a permanent part of the building structure, or is otherwise incorporated into the fabric of the building (i.e. installation on a wall, ceiling or floor in a fixed location, or affixed by hard- wiring or plumbing). See Appendix A, Clause 6, Wage and Hours Provisions. For questions about whether a proposed work constitutes public work, please contact the New York State Department of Labor’s Bureau of Public Work District Office in a specific area.
