Penalties for Non-compliance to Service Level Agreement Where the Supplier/Service Provider fails to deliver the Goods/Services within the agreed and accepted milestone timelines and provided that the cause of the delay was not due to a fault of Transnet, penalties shall be imposed at …………………………………………………… .
MWBE Utilization Plan A. In accordance with 5 NYCRR § 142.4, Bidders are required to submit a completed Utilization Plan on Form MWBE 100 with their bid.
B. The Utilization Plan shall list the MWBEs the Bidder intends to use to perform the Contract, a description of the Contract scope of work the Bidder intends the MWBE to perform to meet the goals on the Contract, and the estimated or, if known, actual dollar amounts to be paid to an MWBE. By signing the Utilization Plan, the Bidder acknowledges that making false representations or including information evidencing a lack of good faith as part of, or in conjunction with, the submission of a Utilization Plan is prohibited by law and may result in penalties including, but not limited to, termination of a contract for cause, loss of eligibility to submit future bids, and/or withholding of payments. Any modifications or changes to the agreed participation by New York State Certified MWBEs after the Contract award and during the term of the Contract must be reported on a revised MWBE Utilization Plan and submitted to OGS.
C. By entering into the Contract, Bidder/Contractor understands that only sums paid to MWBEs for the performance of a commercially useful function, as that term is defined in 5 NYCRR § 140.1, may be applied towards the achievement of the applicable MWBE participation goal. When an MWBE is serving as a broker on the Contract, only 25 percent of all sums paid to a broker shall be deemed to represent the commercially useful function performed by the MWBE.
D. OGS will review the submitted MWBE Utilization Plan and advise the Bidder of OGS acceptance or issue a notice of deficiency within 30 days of receipt.
E. If a notice of deficiency is issued; Bidder agrees that it shall respond to the notice of deficiency, within 7 business days of receipt, by submitting to OGS a written remedy in response to the notice of deficiency. If the written remedy that is submitted is not timely or is found by OGS to be inadequate, OGS shall notify the Bidder and direct the Bidder to submit, within 5 business days of notification by OGS, a request for a partial or total waiver of MWBE participation goals on Form BDC 333. Failure to file the waiver form in a timely manner may be grounds for disqualification of the bid or proposal.
F. OGS may disqualify a Vendors Submission as being non-responsive under the following circumstances:
(a) If a Bidder fails to submit an MWBE Utilization Plan;
(b) If a Bidder fails to submit a written remedy to a notice of deficiency;
(c) If a Bidder fails to submit a request for waiver; or
(d) If OGS determines that the Bidder has failed to document good faith efforts.
G. If awarded a Contract, Contractor certifies that it will follow the submitted MWBE Utilization Plan for the performance of MWBEs on the Contract pursuant to the prescribed MWBE goals set forth in clause IV-A of this Section.
H. Bidder/Contractor further agrees that a failure to submit and/or use such completed MWBE Utilization Plan shall constitute a material breach of the terms of the Contract. Upon the occurrence of such a material breach, OGS shall be entitled to any remedy provided herein, including but not limited to, a finding of Contractor non- responsiveness.
Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning):
1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises.
2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated.
3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch.
4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch).
2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases.
2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
Project Monitoring Reporting and Evaluation The Recipient shall furnish to the Association each Project Report not later than forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar semester, covering the calendar semester.

Service Level Agreements If a Service or a Plan includes a Service Level Agreement (SLA):
(a) we are liable for any remedy or rebate specified by the SLA; and
(b) subject to clauses 40 to 42, and to the express terms of the SLA, our liability for breach of the SLA is limited to such remedy or rebate.
Service Level Agreement 6.1 NCR Voyix will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Service available to you at or above the Availability Rate set forth at xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/support/aloha-sla. If NCR Voyix does not meet the Availability Rate, you are entitled to request a service-level credit subject to the terms of this Agreement. This credit is calculated as a percentage of the monthly recurring bill (or monthly pro rata share of billing, if billing does not occur monthly) for the Service for the month in which the Availability Rate was not met. The Availability Rate is determined by: (a) dividing the total number of valid outage minutes in a calendar month by the total number of minutes in that month; (b) subtracting that quotient from 1.00; (c) multiplying that difference by 100; and (d) rounding that result to two decimal places in accordance with standard rounding conventions. The number of outage minutes per day for a given service is determined by the lesser of the number of outage minutes.
6.2 Unavailability due to other conditions or caused by factors outside of NCR Voyix’s reasonable control will not be included in the calculation of the Availability Rate. Further, the following are expressly excluded from the calculation of the Availability Rate: (a) service unavailability affecting services or application program interfaces that are not used by you; (b) cases where fail-over to another data center is available but not utilized; (c) transient time-outs, required re-tries, or slower-than-normal response caused by factors outside of NCR Voyix’s reasonable control; (d) Scheduled Downtime, including maintenance and upgrades; (e) force majeure; (f) transmission or communications outages outside the NCR Voyix- controlled environment; (g) store-level down-time caused by factors outside of NCR Voyix’s reasonable control; (h) outages attributable to services, hardware, or software not provided by NCR Voyix, including, but not limited to, issues resulting from inadequate bandwidth or related to third-party software or services;
(i) use of the Service in a manner inconsistent with the documentation for the application program interface or the NCR Voyix Product; (j) your Point of Sale (“POS”) failure or the failure to properly maintain the POS environment, including updating the POS firmware or version of the software running on the POS as recommended by either NCR Voyix, a third-party POS reseller or servicer; and (k) issues related to third party domain name system (“DNS”) errors or failures.
6.3 To obtain a service-level credit, you must submit a claim by contacting NCR Voyix through the website at xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/support/aloha-sla Your failure to provide the claim and other information will disqualify you from receiving a credit. NCR Voyix must receive claims within 60 days from the last day of the impacted month. After that date, claims are considered waived and will be refused. You must be in compliance with the Agreement in order to be eligible for a service-level credit. You may not unilaterally offset for any performance or availability issues any amount owed to NCR Voyix. If multiple Services experience an outage in a given month, the total credit for that month will be the highest credit allowed for any single Service which failed; there is no stacking of credits.
6.4 The remedies set forth in the Section are your sole and exclusive remedies for performance or availability issues affecting the Services, including any failure by NCR Voyix to achieve the Availability Rate.
