Emily, Kathy, Lynn, all,
Please find attached the draft contract for User Insight, Inc., in ICANN format. It was sent as draft today to the company for their review and approval, while highlighting that a contract should be agreed upon by Tuesday 23 August.
Now, please note that we need your scrutiny and approval as well!
In the draft contract, please note in particular:
- they report to the Chair and Vice-Chair (in line with how it was done for ATRT’s Berkman contract)
- the start date is set to 23 August and the finish date as 30 September based on their 5 weeks plan, but I have highlighted that the finish date is a placeholder and that preferred delivery date is 19 September, urging them to carefully consider if that’s doable.
- as you have seen in their proposal already, they require appointment of an “executive sponsor” and a “project sponsor” from your side – probably worthwhile to consider right away.
Looking forward to any questions, comments or edits from you on this.
Very best regards
Olof
