5.3 Change Order.

Failing such agreement, the scope shall remain as provided in the SOW as amended by any last agreed Change Order.

This advanced notice is needed to provide WNDYR with enough time to allocate appropriate resources to start the project on time. During the term further sessions may be scheduled by WNDYR following not less than 1 calendar week’s written notice.

6.5 Delays resulting from Customer’s inability to meet agreed project assumptions and its obligations pursuant to this SOW will be defined as “Project Delays.”  WNDYR Services that are not delivered within twelve (12) weeks of the Project Start Date as a result of Project Delays will be deemed delivered and completed.
