WWT’s contract management tool, COMET, provides our customers with a web-based
interface that gives them visibility to their Cisco SMARTnet contracts. The customer can
search for information by various forms of data, such as serial number, contract number,

specific needs, site location, service level, end of support items, etc. and then export your
information into excel reports. Customers can make change requests from within
COMET, which will alert your dedicated SMARTnet contract manager and who will
monitor the request for validation and completion. A demo of the tool can be provided for
more detailed information and functionality.

associated support services to resolve any issues that may arise. Typically leveraging OEM
extended maintenance is the most cost effective means of meeting the requirements of most of our

SERIAL 16076-RFP
WWT always stands behinds the solutions we are selling to our customers in parallel with our
OEM partners. The OEMs stand behind their technologies, and WWT stands behinds the
consumption methods and agreed upon SLAs. A key component of the inception of the
relationship is to map out the engagement and escalation process. Our dedicated vendor alliance
teams are able to drive significant cost out of our customer’s support models through our
involvement in the management of maintenance programs.

The Contractor shall have and maintain a local factory authorized service facility within the

component parts, troubleshooting, repairing and maintaining the material(s). Minimum service
hours shall be from 8:00 A.M. through 5:00 P.M., Arizona Time, Monday through Friday.
WWT does not maintain a local factory authorized service facility. We believe that is it is more
cost effective for Maricopa County and other clients to purchase onsite service warranties for
computer and printing equipment to provide for end-user location visits for repair. In our
experience, this is more cost effective and less disruptive to end users and ensures shorter
downtime. We can supplement this with on-site or traveling staff who can perform maintenance
tasks (for example, on printers); in addition, we can cross ship spare computers overnight to end
users to do a swap out of equipment when parts are not available or remote diagnostics are not
conclusive as to what parts are defective. We successfully provide for many large clients similar
services based out of our St. Louis ITC’s Reverse Logistic Facilities.

The Contractor shall furnish the County a usage report upon request delineating the acquisition
activity governed by the Contract. The format of the report shall be approved by the County.
