This SOW, executed in accordance with the terms of that certain Microsoft Master Vendor Agreement (MMVA) (the “Agreement”) dated October 10, 2012 between Microsoft and Vendor, is entered into by the parties and effective as of the SOW Effective Date above.

1.
Description of Services

 
Pursuant to and in conformance with any standards and/or specifications which may be provided by Microsoft to Vendor from time to time, Vendor Personnel shall deliver to and/or perform for Microsoft the following goods, services and/or other items or materials as a work made for hire (collectively, the “Services”).
 
MCorp will assist the Microsoft Information Technology organization (MSIT) and the Connected Customer Experience team (CCE) to embed an “outside-in” customer perspective into the organization through the development a robust customer experience design, improvement and management competency. MCorp will apply its proven approach across a multitude of projects within Microsoft Learning (MSL) to transfer its knowledge and capabilities to the CCE team. Specifically, MCorp will assist MSIT to:
§
Develop ways to define, understand and improve customer experience (CX)
§
Leverage IT to change how customers navigate the Microsoft hierarchy to be easier, more enjoyable and useful to them
§
Improve how customers interact with the company as a whole
§
Build a repeatable CX management capability that may be scaled and consistently applied across the entire IT organization.
 
MCorp will engage in a “co-creation” approach with MSIT, working side-by-side with MSIT as a team to accomplish the engagement objectives. MCorp will do so by first modeling behaviors and work activities, followed by mentoring and then guiding MSIT/CCE team members in the same work.
 
Our approach will guide the joint identification, strategic framework development and experience design of end-to-end customer journeys through a Microsoft certification for three high-profile MSL personas, including:
§
MS Certified Professional (external)
§
MS Certified Trainer (external)

§
MS Manager – someone who is managing the certification of their product (internal)
 
This “macro” focused engagement will both inform and be informed by the multiple initiatives recently completed, in flight or getting underway across MSL.

Through each phase of work the CCE team will shadow the MCorp team, focusing on a series of “secondary” personas (selected in Phase 1 of the engagement).
