Statement of Work

Foundation Services Package

Introduction

This Statement of Work (“SOW”) is subject to the attached Order Form with the associated Terms of Service and attachments between Salsify and Customer. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the meaning ascribed to them in the Terms of Service, as the case may be.

SOW Term. The Services shall commence on the date set forth on the Order Form and shall continue until the earlier of: (i) completion of the Services as outlined in the Completion Criteria section, or (ii) the termination date set forth on the Order Form not to exceed twelve months.

Objective

The objectives of this document are the following:

• To gain agreement between Customer and Salsify on the project scope and requirements for the work described in this SOW
• To serve as the blueprint for what will be delivered

Scope of Work

Overview

This service package is designed to provide a Salsify led onboarding focused on the set up and enablement of one of your operating units. The Salsify project team will perform hands-on configuration of the Salsify platform based on the services outlined in this SOW and Customer-defined objectives. At the end of this onboarding period, customers will have centralized product content including digital assets and a foundation to continue importing data, uploading assets, and managing the Customer’s Salsify platform going forward.

Service Activities

Salsify will perform the following services as part of this SOW:

Data Model / Content Import Milestone

Data Model Discovery & Advisory

Following delivery by Customer of a representative data set that consists of all properties required for developing a data model, Salsify will conduct a discovery session to review and consult with Customer on the following topics:

• Perform analysis on Customer-provided data to validate that key data requirements are met and data is complete for onboarding.
• Review and confirmation on product identifiers, data types, category hierarchy, property definitions, property groups, property permissions focused on Customer’s endpoint requirements and filename conventions for digital assets.
• Review and confirmation of Customer’s downstream objectives and requirements for product content and assets.
• Best practice around configuration of a data model within Salsify focused on source data.

Data Model Configuration

Based on the information gathered during the discovery phase, Salsify will configure Customer’s data model within Salsify. The data model will account for properties required to support source data requirements. As part of this milestone, Salsify will configure the following:

• Product Hierarchy
  • One (1) product inheritance hierarchy to be used across all product categories, up to four (4) levels in depth.
• Localization
  • Up to five (5) locales in Customer's Salsify instance. A locale is defined as a language-country combination such as 'English - Canada', and 'French - Canada', or as a language without a country designation such as 'English'.
  • Up to fifty (50) localized properties, inclusive of localized digital asset properties.
• Digital Assets
  • Up to twelve (12) assets per product, across up to twelve (12) digital asset properties; 360 spins are considered a single asset.
• Security
  • Up to five (5) security policy groups. Security policy groups are defined as groups of users (by role) that are able to see various entities such as groups of products, digital assets, and channels in Salsify.
  • Up to ten (10) user groups defined by the level of access that the user should have. User groups are defined as groups of users (by role) that have varying levels of permissions (create, read, updated, delete) throughout Salsify.

Initial Content Loads

Once the data model is complete, Salsify will work with Customer to load content into Salsify from Customer’s sources, including up to three (3) different content sources with up to five (5) files per source such as copy, logistics data, and other data relevant to ecommerce.

In addition to these three (3) content sources, Salsify will perform one (1) manual upload of Customer-provided digital assets and associated metadata from a single source, as needed. As part of the initial digital asset loading process, Salsify will link digital assets to existing products based on a consistent file naming convention inclusive of the product ID, subject to Assumptions defined below. Salsify will link assets based on up to twenty-five (25) variations of the file name.

Ongoing Content Feeds

Salsify will configure an automated / semi-automated feed of product content from an upstream system as long as Customer is able to schedule an export of Salsify-importable data from that upstream system, per the relevant Assumptions and Customer Responsibilities defined below.

Salsify will work with Customer to set up a semi-automated data feed process where Customer can place new or updated product information in a flat file single-tab format (.xlsx or .csv) on a Customer or Salsify SFTP server. This process will consume files placed on the SFTP and add or update product information in Salsify.

Data Model and Content Import Review

Once all configuration has been completed and approved, Salsify will provide one thirty-minute overview session and supporting documentation for Customer. The purpose of this session will be to review key decisions made during the content import milestone and the process designed to import content in an ongoing fashion. This session is in addition to the standard training courses.

Digital Catalog Milestone

Digital Catalog Discovery

Salsify will perform a discovery session with Customer’s project team to determine the required information and set up for a single digital catalog, which may include product data, clickable banners, and digital asset downloads.

Digital Catalog Configuration

Salsify will configure a single digital catalog for Customer containing up to fifty (50) properties, supporting one (1) level of the Salsify product hierarchy, and for one (1) locale, based on the information gathered during the discovery.

Digital Catalog Review

Salsify will provide one overview session with the appropriate Customer personnel. The purpose of this session will be to review key decisions made during the digital catalog milestone. This thirty minute session is in addition to the standard training courses.

Training

Customer’s project team will complete the Salsify Standard Platform Training curriculum, which provides foundational Salsify skills that ensure Customer can configure and administer Salsify on a go-forward basis. The Salsify Standard Platform Training curriculum includes training on modules within the Salsify platform, and is accessible via on-demand recordings (included with Customer’s Salsify subscription).

Project Management and Communication

Project Management

Salsify will assign a Project management resource that works as the primary project coordinator and point of contact for activities related to this project. The project manager will be responsible for:

• Project planning
• Project status reporting

Project Communication Methodology

Throughout the project, Salsify will communicate with Customer on a regular basis. These touchpoints ensure visibility and awareness of project deliverables and timelines. The following are details around the type of communication, frequency, details on what will be covered and duration of the communications.

Hours and Timing

Hours by Resource

The services listed in this SOW will be conducted on a time and materials basis. The hours required for tasks and deliverables defined in this document are estimates based on Salsify’s experience with past projects. Salsify will strive to deliver within these estimates. To the extent that hours spent exceed estimates, Salsify will invoice actual hours plus up to 10% of total estimated hours without approval. Hours above such 10% will follow the Change Control process that will result in one of three outcomes: additional funding, change in scope or the reallocation of hours form other tasks (if available).

Timing

This project is estimated at 2 - 3 months from project kick-off to Go-live. This project timeline is an estimate based on the activities outlined above. The assigned Salsify Consultant will create a detailed project schedule upon project initiation based on actual assigned resource availability and project dependencies. While Salsify will try to adhere to the estimated project timeline, many factors such as delays in Customer providing deliverables or changes in scope can affect both the individual task dates and the projected go-live date.

Testing

A Salsify engineer/consultant will validate that the functionality delivered meets the completion criteria as defined in this SOW.

Following successful Salsify testing, it is expected that a Customer resource will also test and validate that the delivered functionality meets the requirements as defined in this SOW or provided use cases. All feedback will be reported to Salsify so that resolution of defects can be tracked and resolved.

Completion Criteria

The following completion criteria have been defined and agreed to by Customer and Salsify. Salsify will ensure the delivered functionality meets the criteria as defined below. Customer will have five (5) business days of each milestone delivery to provide Salsify feedback identifying and describing in reasonable detail any defects within the delivered functionality. The functionality shall be considered complete upon the later of the five day feedback period and the update of the requested modification.

• Data model configured to support Customer’s source data
  • Initial data imported from content sources
  • Ongoing feeds of content configured, if applicable
  • Initial asset upload and linking complete, if applicable
  • Security groups and user groups configured, if applicable
• Data model and imported content overview completed
• One fully configured digital catalog

Warranty for Services

Customer must report any deficiency in Services to Salsify in writing within ten (10) business days upon completion of the Services as defined in the Completion Criteria (the “Warranty Period”). Salsify will promptly remedy and support any deficiency in the Services reported to Salsify during the Warranty Period; Salsify will have no obligation to provide, remedy or support any requirements or functionality which are outside the scope of this Statement of Work.

Following the expiration of the Warranty Period, Salsify will use commercially reasonable efforts to remediate any bugs or defects in the Services for so long as Customer is covered by an active paid subscription to Salsify’s proprietary Salsify Platform.

Customer Responsibilities

As part of this engagement, Customer is responsible for:

• Availability of key personnel (“Project Team”) for the duration of the Services Period. This includes:
  • A primary point of contact that can align necessary resources as required in order to complete any tasks determined as part of the scope of services defined in this SOW.
  • Organization of a core Project Team, including at least one Salsify administrator to drive ongoing administration of Customer’s Salsify account, including additional configuration beyond the initial implementation configuration outlined in this package.
  • Completion of Salsify training.

• Content Import Milestone:
  • Providing content extracts in a CSV or single-sheet tabular XLSX file export for up to three (3) content sources that are representative of Customer’s content and properties; this will be used to define and configure Customer’s data model, and populate the content in Salsify.
  • Identifying a unique product ID or set of potential unique product IDs that exist within each content source per each relevant level of the product hierarchy.
  • Defining product identifiers, data types, category hierarchy and taxonomy, and properties.
  • A consistent naming convention across assets that reference a consistent product identifier and property identifier.
  • Providing digital assets as files (i.e. .tiff, .png, .jpeg, .mp4), file archives (i.e. .zip), or as publicly accessible URLs in a CSV or single-sheet tabular XLSX format.
  • Additional configuration of localized properties beyond the initial fifty (50).
  • Additional manual content and asset loads following the three (3) initial loads.
  • If Customer requires ongoing feed(s) for this project, Customer must have one of the following capabilities; if these are not feasible, Customer will be responsible for either manually importing updated data on an ongoing basis, or building an automated process to import from an upstream system:
    • Ability to schedule an export of Salsify-importable data from the upstream system, delivered to Salsify's SFTP server.
    • If Customer is unable to deliver source data to Salsify's SFTP server, but is able to deliver a Salsify-importable file to a Customer owned SFTP server, Customer will ensure that:
      • The file is named consistently and without any date/timestamp or other variation.
      • Credentials to access relevant directory on Customer’s SFTP server are provided.
      • The file will be delivered on a regular cadence (daily, weekly, etc.).
      • The delivery cadence will be shared with Salsify for configuration purposes

Assumptions

Salsify will deliver the services described in this document subject to the assumptions listed in this section. Invalidation of these assumptions may alter the scope of services required for successful implementation/administration of the Salsify platform and may require a change order or an additional SOW, where the change process will be followed as described in the “Change Control Process” section of this document.

• Each data source file will consist of up to two hundred (200) columns, and will have up to three hundred (300) unique data points across all three (3) content sources.
• Customer will provide Digital Assets with a consistent file naming convention across assets that adhere to the best practices defined below:
  • A product identifier that is available in Salsify and unique across all products -- for instance, Customer’s internal product SKU number or UPC/EAN.
  • A consistent delimiter to support programmatic linking of assets to products, such as an underscore
  • Specification of the property / shot type to which the asset should be assigned (i.e. ‘Front’, ‘Back’, ‘Nutrition’, ‘Ingredients’, etc.)
  • If Customer plans to have more than one image per property / shot type, the name should include an index (i.e. 012345_FRONT_01.jpg)
• Digital catalogs will be configured utilizing a public URL
• Configuration of digital catalogs will not require computed fields

Risks

In addition to those mentioned elsewhere in this SOW, the following risks have been identified that may impact the timing or success of this project (this is not necessarily a complete list):
