Data Center Life Cycle Services Statement Of Work Critical Facility Operations Critical Facility Operations Data Center Operations Table of Contents 1.0 Executive Summary 2.0 Core Competencies 3.0 Scope of Responsibility 4.0 Activities Performed 5.0 Deliverables 6.0 Exclusions 7.0 Mobilization 9.0 Terms & Conditions 1.0 Executive Summary The outsourcing of the Facility Operations & Maintenance (O&M) function is a common and cost effective method used to ensure the optimum performance of mission critical technical facilities such as a data centers. The benefits of outsourcing include increased uptime, better capacity utilization, auditable program standards, longer asset life and increased energy efficiency. All of this translates into increased business continuity and a lower Total Cost of Operations (TCO). The following are common reasons why companies consider outsourcing their critical facility O&M: Lack of internal resources with adequate expertise and current knowledge of industry best practices, trends and initiatives. Lack of an internal standards-based program to mitigate risk, ensure uptime and meet corporate and statutory energy efficiency requirements. A need to focus on corporate core competencies while still meeting stringent business continuity and operational cost requirements. A need to bring innovative, experience-based solutions to bear in an evolving competitive market. Schneider Electric s Critical Facility Operations (CFO) offering is a specialized facility management program that has been created to meet the demanding requirements of the mission critical facility environment. This interdisciplinary program brings facility O&M practices into alignment with IT change management standards, while providing a framework for optimizing facility performance, reliability and efficiency. The methodology employed in the FO program consistently delivers both high system availability and a reduction in the total cost of operations. Schneider Electric s FO program achieves its goals through the integration of people, process and technology. We provide skilled and experienced managers, engineers and technicians that have at their disposal a highly evolved set of processes and procedures, and provide them with specialized tools, systems and training. Our quality system ensures that each program implementation is tailored to our customer s needs, successfully applied in a wide variety of circumstances and continuously improved. Program oversight and management is provided by a support team that is technically skilled and has a broad knowledge of industry solutions and best practices at their disposal. Their role is to provide ongoing hands-on support of the site teams and to partner with customer management to deliver high value services and advanced solutions. There are two principle categories of engagement; the assumption of services at an existing operational facility (Transition Service), or the initial implementation of services at a newly constructed or renovated facility (Mobilization Service). Each has its own initial path, but the eventual sustained operational service model is identical. Schneider Electric www.schneider-electric.com 1 of 6 02/22/18

5.0 Deliverables 1. On-Site Staff Schneider works with its customers to develop a staffing model which is specific to their facility systems, business functions and operational mandates. The important factors in determining staffing levels are customer coverage specifications (e.g. weekday only, 24x7), emergency response requirements, maintenance activity workload, project supervision needs, and the operations budget. Schneider Electric analyzes the maintenance scope of each facility and determines how many man-hours of maintenance are required, factoring in administrative time for change management and training tasks. The objective is to right-size the staff for normal operations, and to augment it with subcontractor personnel for peak maintenance and project work. Schneider will typically staff a facility as follows: a. Critical Facility Manager (CFM). Schneider will provide one (1) CFM on-site at the Facility working 40 hours per week on a shift to be determined by the customer and Schneider. The CFM is the main point of contact for the customer on-site personnel and manages the on-site Schneider staff. b. Facility Technical Staff. Schneider will provide an agreed upon number of Critical Facility Technicians (CFT) at the Facility working 40 hours per week on a shift schedule to be determined by the customer and Schneider. The CFTs consist of subject matter experts and experienced industry technicians that are trained to operate and maintain the facility systems. The on-site technical staff continuously develops, refines, implements, manages and maintains written procedures related to operating, maintaining and recovering the facility systems. c. Other Facility Staff. As needed, Schneider will provide staff on a permanent or temporary basis to manage facility projects, provide contractor escorts, provide specialized administrative support, or for other functions as requested. 2.

Shipping and Receiving 7.0 Mobilization Mobilization (transition) activities include staff hiring, site surveys by support personnel, training program development, training delivery, procedure development, and mobilization project management. During the mobilization (transition), a high level of support is provided for both Schneider and customer personnel. The support staff works with customer personnel and their contractors to understand and document facility functionality, and to develop Key Performance Metrics for service delivery. The On-Site Staff will receive training on Schneider s systems, work process, critical facility work rules and safety procedures, as well as customer policies, processes and procedures. During the mobilization (transition) the CMMS is loaded with the asset data, PM schedules established and programmed into the system. A dedicated site is created in the EDMS for the facility documentation, lists, schedules, calendars, etc. For newly constructed facilities, Schneider believes that it is crucial for operations personnel to be brought on board to witness the construction and commissioning of the data center. In particular, commissioning allows the data center operations personnel to witness the data center systems operating in conditions that they will not be able to simulate once the date center is in live operation. Schneider Electric www.schneider-electric.com 5 of 6 02/22/18

At existing operational facilities, Schneider s Transition Team works with the on-site personnel to create the EOPs, MOPs and SOPs that will be required to properly operate and maintain the facility infrastructure. The process includes the review and modification of existing procedures as well as the creation of new procedures. All MOPs and SOPs to be used in the facility will undergo Schneider s Quality Assurance reviews. Schneider then conducts a planning meeting with the Customer team to present, review and modify the Schneider-generated maintenance program and documents. Schneider understands that the number of on-site staff needs to adjust to the needs of the customer s business, particularly as the site ramps up from the start of operations with a minimal occupancy to the sustained operating capacity. Schneider will work with the customer to develop a flexible staffing plan that aligns to and changes with the actual occupancy rates or other business drivers. 8.0 Terms and Conditions Schneider Electric standard terms and conditions apply. 2013 Schneider Electric.
