Any and all necessary adjustments will be limited to the hours contracted by the CLIENT, in the absence of sufficient hours the CLIENT may deliberate, within 72 hours, to additionally contract the missing hours to complete the necessary adjustments, under penalty of the Project being considered delivered without any requested adjustments. After this validation, the process will be ready to be used.

The Resource will be made available within 30 days from the date of purchase (set-up period). The Resource is part of the Personnel, as defined in the Agreement, and nothing in this Annex I shall constitute an employment relationship between the CLIENT and the Resource.

    3.2. Ways of Contracting: The Dedicated SE service is marketed by the quantity of Resources, as stated in the Purchase Order, and for a minimum period of 12 (twelve) months per Resource. The Resource will act exclusively alongside the CLIENT, except for internally allocated hours for alignments, training, and internal routines of the Resource with PIPEFY, which may vary between 60 and 80 hours per month.

    3.2.1. Additional Hours: If it is found that the CLIENT’s demand exceeds the Monthly Work Limit feasible for one person, unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties, the CLIENT acknowledges and agrees to be obligated to pay for the additional hours verified per Resource, as well as for reimbursement for any additional hours (night/overtime), as applicable. The charges will be made in the month following the determination of exceeded hours.



    3.3. Absences: The CLIENT is aware and agrees that the contracted Resource(s) is part of the Staff, and, although available on business days and hours, will continue to be subject to the employer’s calendar; the Resource(s) will be entitled to 30 (thirty) days of absence per year due to vacations, and may also occasionally be justifiably absent. During these periods, PIPEFY will replace the Resource(s), however, it is noted that such substitute support will not be exclusive, and will require a learning curve regarding the CLIENT’s processes and information.


    3.4. Adjustment: The values of the Resource(s) will be annually adjusted according to the percentage of the collective bargaining agreement of the category. Adjustments will be previously communicated to the CLIENT in writing, becoming effective on the renewal date of the subscription. Changes exceeding 7% (seven percent) will be previously communicated to the CLIENT in writing, becoming effective on the renewal date of the subscription. The price changes are deemed accepted if the CLIENT continues using the Services of the Resource(s). The CLIENT has the right to reject price changes exceeding 7% (seven percent) by canceling the Services, without charges or penalties.



    1. Proof of Concept Service “POC”

    4.1. Description: The Proof of Concept (“POC”) aims to enable the CLIENT to perform a compliance analysis of the functional, technical, and quality requirements of the PIPEFY Solution. Through the execution of the POC, PIPEFY will anticipate some steps of the Onboarding Services of the Solution, aiming to enable the CLIENT to effectively test the Solution, as per the need and scope defined between the Parties.


    4.2. Contracting Method: The Proof of Concept (POC) service is marketed through weekly sprints and scoped based on the estimated effort for the defined scope between the Parties. The total value of the service and the payment terms will be specified in the Purchase Order to be signed by the CLIENT for the hiring of the services.

    4.2.1.  The Purchase Order may also contain any specific conditions agreed upon between the Parties, such as the minimum number of Pipefy Solution licenses to be contracted by the Client after the completion of the POC, discounts, or other exceptional conditions, with the Parties being bound to such provisions.

    4.3.1. Deliverables


    (i) Planning: (before the project starts) Deadlines and responsibilities will be defined according to the complexity of the process documentation and user mapping that will be sent with the scope survey.
