Create alerts for criteria breaches
Provide guidance (in terms of DQ APIs) on specific system integration requirements following Collibra DQ best practices
Guidance on security configuration
Guidance on adding domain specific rules and investigating findings
Provide assistance on configuring the various scorecards and reports
Second iteration of the design
Phase/Task Customer responsibility Collibra responsibility
Based on the discussion at the end of the first iteration, repeat steps above, adding more content, expanding the set-up, specific to the initial use case
  • Based on the demos, conduct a discussion of next steps for expanding the set-up
  • Conduct demos of the updated draft setup
Final Preparation: Testing
Phase/Task Customer responsibility Collibra responsibility
  • Build and prepare test scripts/cases
  • Shadow Collibra during the migration process
Provide support for customer testing in choice of Dev or Test environment for up to five (5) days – should be accelerated based on demos conducted in Dev environment above
Transition
Phase/Task Customer responsibility Collibra responsibility
Participate and shadow Collibra to accelerate knowledge transfer Knowledge Transfer
Participate in engagement close session (key stakeholders and executive sponsor) Conduct an engagement close session reviewing the objectives, deliverables, outcomes, documentation and recommended next steps
Project status
Phase/Task Customer responsibility Collibra responsibility
Ensure short project remains on track Participate in weekly status reviews and remediation planning for any project risks that arise Ensure engagement remains on track and any potential risks or issues are identified early and remedial steps taken

Assumptions

The following are key assumptions for this SOW:

  1. Customer will provide requested information for the analyses, including current procurement process for buying new data sets.
  2. Customer will identify stakeholders representing line-of-business data stewards, procurement and the data office to participate in the project starting at kickoff.
  3. Collibra consultants will make maximum use of out-of-box product capabilities to minimize custom development.
  4. All linear scale testing will be done on a Customer provided cluster in order to prove the application scales as a function of hardware (hence the need for a cluster of hardware). Collibra Team will have access to one or more Customer technical personnel and one or more data SMEs.
  5. The start of the engagement will begin on a mutually agreed upon date between both parties.
  6. The Customer will have collected all functional requirements, roles, responsibilities prior to the start of the project.
  7. The Customer will make available key team members during the installation and implementation.
  8. Customer personnel will shadow Collibra consultants as a learning exercise.
