Change Control Changes to the scope of the Services shall be made only in a written Change Order signed by both parties. LCI shall have no obligation to commence work in connection with any change until the fee and /or schedule impact of the change and all other applicable terms are agreed upon by both parties in writing. The following list provides a detailed process to follow if changes to components within the scope of this SOW are required. • A Change Order (CO) will be the mechanism used for communicating change. The CO must describe the change, the reason for the change, effective date, and the effect the change will have on the Project. • The designated Project Manager of the requesting party will review the proposed change and determine whether to submit the request to the other party. • Both Project Managers will review the proposed change and approve it for further investigation. LCI will specify if there will be any charges for such investigation, which may be incorporated into the CO. The investigation will determine the effect that the implementation of the CO charge will have on price, schedule, and other terms and conditions of this SOW. • A written Change Order must be signed by both parties to authorize the implementation of the changes. Project Assumptions To execute the Project successfully, several key assumptions have been made. Any change in these assumptions may result in a change in scope, which will be addressed through the Change Order process, and may result in additional charges and /or delay of the completion of the Project. • All Services will be performed at LCI's site or Customer's site (as applicable) by LCI's technical resources, as agreed by LCI and Customer. • All discussions of Project duration are dependent upon a timely reception of requisite POs and other Customer - generated paperwork necessary to launch the Project or move forward to the next phase. • LCI will not be able to start work until after this SOW has been signed and a Purchase Order received. Resources can only be allocated and scheduled once a copy of the signed SOW is received by LCI. • While scheduling changes do not generally result in a billable change of scope, they could affect the availability of resources for both LCI and Customer and delay the completion of the Project. • Services provided by LCI or its subcontractors will be provided during normal business hours (8:00 am to 5:00 pm) Monday through Friday excluding LCI recognized holidays. Services provided outside of LCI standard business times and hours will be considered out of scope and will be handled as a change order at standard overtime rates if Customer requests it.
