FE professionals will be directed by the County’s Project Manager or their <br />designee according to the assignments to be performed. The scheduling of FE <br />resources will be mutually agreed upon based on the needs of the County and <br />the availability of the specific FE consultants. <br />2. This proposal assumes that FE will perform tasks called out in Section 2 <br />(excluding any optional tasks or services). The deletion of a task or significant <br />change in the scope of one or more tasks may affect the overall price. Optional <br />tasks can be priced at the County’s request and added to this SOW via a <br />mutually agreeable contract modification. <br />3. FE will provide draft and final deliverables electronically to the County. <br />4. This SOW assumes that County’s Project Manager will schedule meetings, <br />provide meeting facilities, notify attendees, and arrange for onsite visits. <br />5. Any optional or additional tasking will be authorized by mutual agreement of the <br />County and FE. Such tasking will be performed on a time and materials basis in <br />accordance with the rates in Schedule A or on a fixed price basis as mutually <br />agreed to in an additional task order by the County and FE. <br />6. FE will notify the County should additional funding be required to complete the <br />approved tasks. The authorized funding will be increased by a written <br />modification to this task duly executed by both the County and FE. <br />7.

This SOW assumes an annual allocation of funding to support the County’s <br />VIPER implementation. <br />9.
