1. Requirement gathering – Customer will explain the requirement, learning objective, learner profiles, and expectations around the module/project.
2. Query resolution and output format – Customer will address Mindtickle’s queries and brainstorm to finalize the desired output format to meet the training objectives.
3. Content walkthrough – Customer provides a walkthrough of the content, addresses Mindtickle’s queries, and provides a go ahead to start with the development.

4. Assumptions for hourly bundle engagement

1. The total number of CaaS Hours shall be specified in the Order.
2. Mindtickle will maintain timesheets that will be shared regularly with the Customer to provide visibility on the hours consumed as well as the balance number of hours.
3. The total number of consumed hours will not exceed the total CaaS Hours agreed in the Order, except with the Parties’ mutual agreement as set forth in a separate Order or a change order as executed by the Parties.
4. The Customer will provide the required subject matter expert support and the source content required for any content development project.
5. For any project that will require professional voice-over recording services:
   1. Mindtickle will provide sample(s) to the Customer. Once Customer approves the voice-over sample as well as the voice-over script, Mindtickle will proceed with the recording.
   2. If there are any errors in the pronunciation and these are highlighted within 3 working days of voice-over delivery, the same will be re-recorded by the voice-over artist at no additional cost. However, re-recording resulting due to any changes to the voice-over script will require additional effort investment and additional Fees would be charged.

5. Assumptions for dedicated resource engagement

1. The maximum hours per working week shall be based on the FTE count specified in the Order. The term FTE means a dedicated ‘Full Time Employee’ providing not more than 40 hours of CaaS services per week. Accordingly, the maximum number of hours for a 1/2 FTE, 1/3 FTE and 1/4 FTE specified in the Order shall be prorated to 20 hours a week, 14 hours a week and 10 hours a week, respectively.
2. Any balance unused hours shall not be carried forward to the next day or week.
3. The dedicated resource/ FTE shall provide an estimate of the time required for completing the work post content analysis phase. The development plan shall continue as per the provided estimates, unless there is a change in the scope of work or re-prioritization of work by the customer.
4. The dedicated resource / FTE shall be entitled to personal time off for 2 days every month.

6. Project timelines for hourly bundle engagement

1. On sharing a requirement, the Customer will provide Mindtickle, with a lead time of 5 working days to start working on the requirement.
2. The timeline for every project/task will be defined and communicated to the Customer by Mindtickle following the “Query Resolution and Output format” step of the process.
3. For projects/tasks with fixed, predefined timelines by the Customer, the Customer will notify Mindtickle at the earliest date possible. Mindtickle will then analyze the requirement, complete the “Query Resolution and Output format” step, and share the projected timeline to complete the project/task. If the projected timeline shared by Mindtickle does not meet the target timeline required by the Customer, Mindtickle and Customer will discuss and agree upon one or combination of more than one of the below options:
   1. Explore the possibility of adding an additional resource on the project to pull the expected timeline for completion. This can be explored only if:
      1. There is an available lead time of minimum fifteen (15) business days before a resource needs to be added; and
      2. The duration for which the additional resource is required is fixed and agreed upon.
   2. Decide on the minimum viable output to be delivered within the target timeline
   3. Explore the possibility of changing the output format in order to reduce the time investment required in development
4. All timelines communicated by Mindtickle will be based on budgeted Customer review timelines and project steps as set out in the project schedule.
