General Information

COMPRO/ENCORE offers a selection of maintenance plans designed to meet the growing demands of today's customers.  In addition to standard package offerings, any standard service program can be custom-tailored to meet unique requirements.

 

For standard programs, the rate is determined by the equipment configuration and proximity to a COMPRO/ENCORE Service Office location.  Rates apply to coverage during the Principal Period of Maintenance (PPM), which is 8:00 AM through 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays.

 

Support plans are available at fixed monthly rates to simplify budgeting.  The minimum period of performance is one year.

 

TeleDiagnostic Modules (TDM's) supplied as part of a hardware support contract are COMPRO/ENCORE property, and must be returned to COMPRO/ENCORE upon contract expiration.

Annual Support Contract Cancellation Policy

          Requirements

 

                    All annual support contracts require 90-day written notice, signed by an authorized customer representative.

 

                    Cancellation notification must be delivered to Compro via postal service or fax.  Email is not acceptable.

 

                    Cancellation effective date must be 90 days prior to the period-of-performance end date.

 

                    Multi-year contract cancellation will be addressed on an individual basis.

 

          Cancellation fee for materials-only support contracts (e.g., Repair/Exchange, SUS, Configuration Management)

 

                    All applied discounts will be rescinded retroactively from the starting period-of-performance date, and shall be payable in full on the cancellation date.

 

          Cancellation fee for contracts with support labor (e.g., TSS, SSS, PSS, RHS, PHS, MHS, CLDS)

 

                    The cancellation fee is calculated as follows:

 

                    Cancelled Days = (period-of-performance end date) - (cancellation date)

 

                    Cancelled Daily Rate = (annual NON-discounted rate) / 365

 

                    Cancellation Fee = ((Cancelled Days) x (Cancelled Daily Rate)) x 50%

 

                    The cancellation fee shall be payable in full on the cancellation date.

 

Model Number and Ordering Information

All COMPRO/ENCORE products are identified by unique model numbers.  Service program model numbers are the same as product model numbers with the addition of a two-digit prefix.  The first digit of this prefix denotes a Customer Service product (F) and the second digit denotes the type of service (i.e., Premier, Standard, SUS, etc.). The breakdown of these prefixes are as follows:

 

• FL = Premier Hardware Support (PHS)
• FD = Standard Hardware Support (SHS)
• FU = Software Update Service (SUS)
• FP = Premier Software Support (PSS)
• FS = Standard Software Support (SSS)
• FR = Remote Hardware Support (RHS)
• FM = Mature Software Support (MSS)
• ES = Total System Support (TSS)

 

Note: All 91 Series computer systems bundle the operating system and other software products with the system price.  As a result, there is a separate price for hardware and software maintenance.  The software maintenance price will appear in the software section and the hardware maintenance price will appear in the hardware section of the Customer Services Price List.  The base part number will remain the same but the service two-digit prefix will change.

 

All contract maintenance service pricing is represented in Monthly Maintenance Rate (MMR) dollars, except Software Update Service (SUS) and Mature Software Support (MSS) which are represented in Annual Support Rate (ASR) dollars.
