  5. Gartner Service Definition —Cloud Transformation Capability Maturity Road Map • Reasons Why Others Use Gartner • Gartner created the IT Research industry 32 years ago, and our reputation speaks for itself. Gartner Research is the only IT research informed by both the technology end user and provider’s perspectives. We use our research as the basis for our Consulting solutions, methodologies and tools; and, we leverage our research and our industry leading analysts, as needed, throughout our Consulting engagements. So, when our clients buy Gartner Consulting, they are buying Gartner Research • Articulating a clear ICT Value Proposition that is framed such that cloud opportunities are highlighted appropriately is a foundational pillar in approving and executing change. Without evidenceto secure informed consent to an updated ICT Value Proposition there is a danger that Cloud opportunities are missed, or pursued for inappropriate reasons • A clear view of what changes to make to ensure the organisation is better able to recognise, evaluate, decide and execute on Cloud initiatives (and the rationale for making such changes) • Prerequisites • There are no prerequisites to this service Any Additional Information • There is no additional information related to this service

This session will also include the review of best practices and is expected to be 3 hours in duration • Gartner will conduct a Midpoint Review of the maturity improvement road map with the client. This session is expected to be 2 hours in duration • Gartner will conduct a review session to discuss, confirm and finalise the improvement recommendations and maturity improvement road map. This session is expected to be 3 hours in duration • Offices, phones, printing/copying and Internet access will be available to Gartner at client locations • Gartner will use Microsoft Office for the production of any engagement documentation • Any requests for additional information and/or deliverables(beyond the details described in this service definition) that are made will be considered a change in scope and will be handled accordingly (see Changes to Scope). This does not apply to clarification questions • Changes to Scope • The scope of the engagement is defined herein. All client requests for changes must be set forth and explained in writing. As soon as practicable, Gartner shall advise of the cost/schedule implications of requested changes and any other necessary details to allow both parties to decide whether to proceed with the requested changes. The parties shall agree in writing upon any requested changes prior to Gartner commencing work • As used herein, “changes” are defined as work activities or work products not originally planned for or specifically defined by this service definition Assumptions • The client will designate a project manager as primary point of contact who will work closely with Gartner as needed and will: (a) approve priorities/task plans/schedules; (b) facilitate scheduling of interviews with personnel; (c) notify Gartner in writing of project issues and assist in their resolution • Client will review and approve documents within five business days. If no formal approval/rejection is received within that time, the deliverable is considered accepted • Client personnel will be made available per the schedule agreed in the kickoff meeting • The due diligence (as‑is) data are reasonably available via interviews and documentation review • Client provides timely access to personnel to be interviewed.
