3. Project Methodology & Delivery Assurance
3.1 Methodology
The following Implementation Methodology will be used for this Project. The Project methodology includes five phases. Conga provides delivery assurance throughout the Project lifecycle as part of the methodology.
The phases are outlined below:
Customer Readiness – This is a critical phase of the overall effort that helps ensure that Conga can implement the solution in the Project Plan timeline. The customer will prepare and provide necessary data and key requirements in order to kick-off the project. Conga will conduct an Introduction and Customer Readiness Kick-off call and provide guidance and templates for the collection of the data and requirements during the Customer Readiness phase.
The key data and requirements are as follows:
Data Preparation and Requirement Item | What Conga Requires from the Customer |
---|---|
Document Volume |
|
Agreement Types and Fields |
|
Sandbox/Environment Details |
|
Sample Documents Review |
|
Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of the project.
Plan - A Project kickoff and readiness review is conducted. The Project plan is shared and updated as necessary and agreed upon between Customer and Conga, and a kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to the table above for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.
Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase is used to define the agreement (contract) types and provisions (terms) that will be processed through CCI and then mapped to the corresponding data structure in the contract management solution. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements and mapping design. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 1.3 are reviewed and agreed upon in writing. The solution is then configured in a test environment per the defined scope and requirements. Conga will test and verify the solution and perform any extract model tuning necessary.
UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured and providing expected extraction results according to agreed requirements and design. Conga will demonstrate and train on use of the solution.
Launch, Production Data Processing & Hypercare - Deployment of the configured CCI solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment. The customer is responsible for processing all documents through CCI and creating agreement records.
Conga may utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Confluence and JIRA.
The customer will need to plan for and allocate the appropriate resources and time to prepare and provide the above noted necessary data and key requirements and validate the extraction results. Typical resources and level of efforts are noted below:
Resource | Activity | Estimated Time Necessary |
---|---|---|
Project Manager/Coordinator | Coordinate customer resources and timeline | 20 hours |
Legal/Business Subject Matter Experts |
| 20-40 hours depending on requirement complexity |
IT/Technical Contact | Support the preparation of documents and loading into the CCI system | 20 hours |
*The CCI data extraction process provides the extracted data in a review state prior to agreement record creation. Customer resources should be prepared to spend time during the testing cycle and during production use of CCI to review and validate the extracted data for each processed document, prior to creation of each agreement record in the applicable Conga contract management solution. The time necessary for the review and validation is dependent on the contract document size, number and complexity of provisions/data fields being extracted, and the legal expertise of the reviewer.
4. Project Plan
Conga will contact Customer within three (3) weeks of Order Form Effective Date to establish a Project start date. The Project start date will be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties (email sufficient).
Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Readiness Phase and Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.
The Project Plan will be constructed based on the known requirements, estimated effort, and scope set forth herein this Statement of Work. The Project Plan will be confirmed, updated as necessary, and agreed upon with the Customer after the Customer Readiness Phase is completed and during the Plan Phase.
Project Plan duration: The baseline Project Plan timeline is dependent on:
The readiness of the Conga contract management solution (CLM, Contracts for Salesforce or Conga Contracts)
The timeline of the in-flight contract management solution implementation project
CCI configuration and contract processing cannot begin until the Conga Contract Management solution is configured to the appropriate state of readiness to accept the agreed upon data fields.
Upon readiness of the contract management solution, it is estimated that the timeline will be as follows:
5 weeks (4 weeks from Project Kick-off to Launch plus 1 week of Hypercare). This does not include Customer Readiness time.
For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays.
4.1 Customer Readiness
The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last up to 2 weeks; however, this is dependent on the Customer’s state of readiness and ability to provide the data and requirements noted in Section 1.3 and is not included in the Project Plan timeline.
4.2 Kickoff
The Project Kick-off and Project Plan timeline will start upon completion of the Customer Readiness phase.
4.3 Go-Live
“Go-Live” refers to the deployment of the Conga solution in the Production environment.
A single go-live event is in scope. Additional go-lives are not in scope and any functionality that is mutually agreed to be deferred from the single go-live is no longer part of the scope of this SOW.
Go-Live occurs after migration of the Conga solution to the Production environment.
Customer will be responsible for Go-live planning with guidance from Conga as outlined in this SOW.
Conga assumes Customer’s information technology policies that govern the deployment of Conga solution to the Production environment and the go-live of new information technology, will not extend the Project Plan described herein via a delay in the deployment or Go-Live of the Conga solution.
Go-Live does not include the process of all Customer legacy contract documents through CCI, unless governed by a separate Statement of Work.
4.4 Hypercare Period
“Hypercare Period” refers to the period and services following the Go-Live of the Conga solution.
For a release of the Conga solution, the Hypercare Period begins at Go-Live and concludes after five (5) business days, i.e., one (1) week.
For clarity, issues identified after the Hypercare Period will be addressed per the terms set forth in Customer’s applicable subscription agreement with Conga (i.e., Customer’s purchased level of Technical Support in the MSSA and applicable Order or Order Form). Upon completion of the Hypercare Period, Conga will send Customer a notice (email sufficient) acknowledging SOW Project completion.

Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions
Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions(referred to as “Platform”)
Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.
Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features, and capability provided by the Platform, e.g., the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,
Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development, and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.
Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.
Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices, and policies.
Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.
Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.
Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.
The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:
Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment
While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full- copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.
Appendix B – Glossary of Terms
Agreement Types: An Agreement Type (Contract or Record Type) such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and meta-data and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.
Terms/Provisions: A Term or Provision is a specific meta-data element (data field) within a contract document. Such as Agreement Title, Expiration Date, Start Date, or Renewal Term.
Clauses: A Clause is a section of standard language within a contract document, with the intention of being used repeatedly across contract documents. Such as Limits on Liability or Indemnification clauses. Clauses are also provisions within Conga Contract Intelligence
Risk Rule: A Risk Rule is a functionality within Conga Contract Intelligence that can be configured to drive specific actions (such as email notifications) based on defined input criteria and data extracted from contract documents.
Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

IT/Technical Contact | Support the preparation of documents and loading into the CCI system | 20 hours |
*The CCI data extraction process provides the extracted data in a review state prior to agreement record creation. Customer resources should be prepared to spend time during the testing cycle and during production use of CCI to review and validate the extracted data for each processed document, prior to creation of each agreement record in the applicable Conga contract management solution. The time necessary for the review and validation is dependent on the contract document size, number and complexity of provisions/data fields being extracted, and the legal expertise of the reviewer.
4. Project Plan
Conga will contact Customer within three (3) weeks of Order Form Effective Date to establish a Project start date. The Project start date will be mutually agreed to in writing by the parties (email sufficient).
Project kick-off will be planned on a mutually agreed date, based on Conga and Customer resource availability and completion of the Customer Readiness Phase and Pre-requisite Deliverables defined below.
The Project Plan will be constructed based on the known requirements, estimated effort, and scope set forth herein this Statement of Work. The Project Plan will be confirmed, updated as necessary, and agreed upon with the Customer after the Customer Readiness Phase is completed and during the Plan Phase.
Project Plan duration: The baseline Project Plan timeline is dependent on:
The readiness of the Conga contract management solution (CLM, Contracts for Salesforce or Conga Contracts)
The timeline of the in-flight contract management solution implementation project
CCI configuration and contract processing cannot begin until the Conga Contract Management solution is configured to the appropriate state of readiness to accept the agreed upon data fields.
Upon readiness of the contract management solution, it is estimated that the timeline will be as follows:
5 weeks (4 weeks from Project Kick-off to Launch plus 1 week of Hypercare). This does not include Customer Readiness time.
For the avoidance of doubt, a day is eight (8) hours, Monday through Friday, on Conga’ standard business days, excluding holidays.
4.1 Customer Readiness
The Customer Readiness phase is estimated to last up to 2 weeks; however, this is dependent on the Customer’s state of readiness and ability to provide the data and requirements noted in Section 1.3 and is not included in the Project Plan timeline.
4.2 Kickoff
The Project Kick-off and Project Plan timeline will start upon completion of the Customer Readiness phase.
4.3 Go-Live
“Go-Live” refers to the deployment of the Conga solution in the Production environment.
A single go-live event is in scope. Additional go-lives are not in scope and any functionality that is mutually agreed to be deferred from the single go-live is no longer part of the scope of this SOW.
Go-Live occurs after migration of the Conga solution to the Production environment.
Customer will be responsible for Go-live planning with guidance from Conga as outlined in this SOW.
Conga assumes Customer’s information technology policies that govern the deployment of Conga solution to the Production environment and the go-live of new information technology, will not extend the Project Plan described herein via a delay in the deployment or Go-Live of the Conga solution.
Go-Live does not include the process of all Customer legacy contract documents through CCI, unless governed by a separate Statement of Work.
4.4 Hypercare Period
“Hypercare Period” refers to the period and services following the Go-Live of the Conga solution.
For a release of the Conga solution, the Hypercare Period begins at Go-Live and concludes after five (5) business days, i.e., one (1) week.
For clarity, issues identified after the Hypercare Period will be addressed per the terms set forth in Customer’s applicable subscription agreement with Conga (i.e., Customer’s purchased level of Technical Support in the MSSA and applicable Order or Order Form). Upon completion of the Hypercare Period, Conga will send Customer a notice (email sufficient) acknowledging SOW Project completion.

Appendix A – Salesforce Platform Assumptions
Salesforce Lightning Platform Assumptions(referred to as “Platform”)
Language
The user interface can only support the languages that are supported by the Platform.
Platform Limitations
Conga is 100% native to the Platform. The Conga solutions are subject to the constraints, limitations, features, and capability provided by the Platform, e.g., the limitation of uploaded files to twenty-five (25) megabytes,
Advanced Configuration
“Advanced Configurations” refer to Conga Solution components composed of the Salesforce and software development technologies listed here: salesforce Apex, salesforce Visualforce, salesforce triggers and JavaScript, Conga callbacks and APIs. Conga will make all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the design, development, and testing of Advanced Configurations. Customer will be responsible for the maintenance of all Advanced Configurations following Go-Live unless appropriate Conga Managed services are procured. Conga Services will achieve a code coverage of eighty (80) percent for Conga code exclusively. The Services included herein will not require the modification of third-party code in Customer’s salesforce environments.
Customer Salesforce Procured Lightning Platform Org Assumptions:
For clarity, the assumptions below apply only in situations where Customer has procured Salesforce Lightning Platform Org Licenses independent of Conga for the purposes of Conga to deliver its product and services. If Conga has procured the Org Licenses, then the below does not apply.
Platform Dependencies
As the Conga Solution is 100% native to the Platform, the execution of this SOW is dependent on the Customer’s configuration and management of Customer Salesforce instances in so far as the readiness of these instances support the following standard Salesforce features, practices, and policies.
Cumulative Code Coverage
Cumulative code coverage in Customer's Salesforce environment cannot be guaranteed by Conga. In the event that Customer’s code coverage impacts the deployment of the Conga Solution, Customer will remediate code coverage in a timely manner.
Customer Procured Third-party Apps and Configured Objects
Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.
Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.
The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:
Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment
While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full- copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.
Appendix B – Glossary of Terms
Agreement Types: An Agreement Type (Contract or Record Type) such as NDA, MSA or SOW is the classification within Conga CLM that is used as a container of configuration and meta-data and represents the end-to-end lifecycle of a contract request to contract execution. The various configurations included for implementation of one Agreement Type include data structures, workflow rules, validations, notifications, field/button display, approvals, templates. Within the Accelerator the parameters for each of the configuration items are a fixed scope.
Terms/Provisions: A Term or Provision is a specific meta-data element (data field) within a contract document. Such as Agreement Title, Expiration Date, Start Date, or Renewal Term.
Clauses: A Clause is a section of standard language within a contract document, with the intention of being used repeatedly across contract documents. Such as Limits on Liability or Indemnification clauses. Clauses are also provisions within Conga Contract Intelligence
Risk Rule: A Risk Rule is a functionality within Conga Contract Intelligence that can be configured to drive specific actions (such as email notifications) based on defined input criteria and data extracted from contract documents.
Standard Reports: Standard Reports" are a library of pre-built reporting templates provided by Conga CLM for reporting Agreement data. They are standard since they are based on Salesforce standard reporting capabilities and address common reporting needs for CLM processes.

The following Implementation Methodology will be used for this Project. The Project methodology includes five phases. Conga provides delivery assurance throughout the Project lifecycle as part of the methodology.
The phases are outlined below:
Customer Readiness – This is a critical phase of the overall effort that helps ensure that Conga can implement the solution in the Project Plan timeline. The customer will prepare and provide necessary data and key requirements in order to kick-off the project. Conga will conduct an Introduction and Customer Readiness Kick-off call and provide guidance and templates for the collection of the data and requirements during the Customer Readiness phase.
The key data and requirements are as follows:
Data Preparation and Requirement Item | What Conga Requires from the Customer |
---|---|
Document Volume |
|
Agreement Types and Fields |
|
Sandbox/Environment Details |
|
Pre-work must be completed before moving into Plan phase of the project.
Plan - A Project kickoff and readiness review is conducted. The Project plan is shared and updated as necessary and agreed upon between Customer and Conga, and a kickoff is held where clear Project objectives are established. Refer to the table above for the list of prerequisite deliverables from Customer prior to starting the Plan phase. These deliverables will be reviewed as part of the kickoff readiness review.
Define, Design, Configure & Test – This phase is used to define the agreement (contract) types andprovisions (terms) that will be processed through CCI and then mapped to the corresponding data structure in the contract management solution. Customer is required to confirm the defined requirements and mapping design. Any changes within the scope defined in Section 1.3 are reviewed and agreed upon in writing. The solution is then configured in a test environment per the defined scope and requirements. Conga will test and verify the solution and perform any extract model tuning necessary.
UAT - Customer to confirm that system is configured and providing expected extraction results according to agreed requirements and design. Conga will demonstrate and train on use of the solution.
Launch, Production Data Processing & Hypercare - Deployment of the configured CCI solution to production and one week of Hypercare, starting after production deployment. The customer is responsible for processing all documents through CCI and creating agreement records.
Conga may utilize one or more of the following tools to support the implementation efforts. The tools are templatized for fast and consistent implementation results. The client Project team may be granted access for the duration of the Project. The tools that may be utilized during the Project are Confluence and JIRA.
The customer will need to plan for and allocate the appropriate resources and time to prepare and provide the above noted necessary data and key requirements and validate the extraction results. Typical resources and level of efforts are noted below:
Resource | Activity | Estimated Time Necessary |
---|---|---|
Project Manager/Coordinator | Coordinate customer resources and timeline | 20 hours |
Legal/Business Subject Matter Experts |
| 20-40 hours depending on requirement complexity |
IT/Technical Contact | Support the preparation of documents and loading into the CCI system | 20 hours |
*The CCI data extraction process provides the extracted data in a review state prior to agreement record creation. Customer resources should be prepared to spend time during the testing cycle and during production use of CCI to review and validate the extracted data for each processed document, prior to creation of each agreement record in the applicable Conga contract management solution. The time necessary for the review and validation is dependent on the contract document size, number and complexity of provisions/data fields being extracted, and the legal expertise of the reviewer.

Conga will not be responsible for servicing any third-party App running on the Salesforce platform and servicing any Customer configured Objects, unless specified in the SOW.
Salesforce Environments
Customer must provide all necessary Platform environments, including sandboxes, to enable the performance of the Project as described herein. Customer is required to license all required Platform environments, including sandboxes, directly from Salesforce. Failure to do so will alter the expected duration and cost of the Project implementation and require a Change Order.
The Project is dependent upon Customer’s applicable Platform environments. Customer and Conga will conduct all Solution configuration, testing and deployment activities in the following (3) salesforce environments, as licensed from Salesforce by Customer and managed by Customer, unless specified otherwise in the SOW:
Build – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (Developer Pro)
Test – one (1) Salesforce sandbox environment (bare minimum Partial Sandbox, ideal would be the full sandbox)
Production – one (1) Salesforce production environment
While lesser varieties of salesforce sandbox environments are available, the storage capacity of a full- copy sandbox is required for the Conga Solution. Please consult salesforce materials at help.salesforce.com for additional sandbox details.
