SLA aims to establish a basis and framework for providing high-quality services that meet the requirements and needs of AL DAWAA.
SLA is applicable for incidents and service requests only.
The Contractor shall provide and present the Service Level Agreement in a clearly defined manner that prevents confusion or misinterpretation of controls and bases upon which the service shall be provided as well as the obligations of SLA parties towards each other.
SLA shall also specify the time periods for responding and processing requested services as well as the technical and functional escalation mechanism, service availability, and importance levels, along with indicating how to measure service performance levels. SLA shall include at least the following:
Service Availability:
The timing at which the service shall be made available. The productivity period shall include at least the provision of service throughout the year.
Importance Levels:
Requests shall be categorized into several levels of importance, given the type of service recipient (job position), the overall impact of service on business (Impact) and urgency (critical times when service shall not be interrupted as test times or payment times).
Importance classification shall be like the following:

1. Critical.
2. High.
3. Low.
Critical: Showstopper. Application breakdown/crash. Has serious implications on running the production server and has impacted all business-critical process. It has affected or may affect more than %50 of the users’ community will be classified as Critical. Only production server/network devices can be classified under this category. For example: Users can’t login to the system, payroll can’t be run in the system, POs can’t be issued from the system, leave request can’t be created, etc.
High: Serious degradation in the application performance. Has impacted majority of the business process but still been able to continue the operations with the system limitations. May have serious implications on the data integrity. It has affected or may affect from10% to 50% of the user community. For example: leave balance is incorrect for certain employees, finance team has some incorrect figures in GL, etc.
Low: Moderate degradation in the application performance No implications on the data integrity. Has no impact on the normal operations/day-to-day working. For example: the employee’s name is not showing in some forms, some data is missing in specific forms, etc.
Response and Processing Period:
Response Period: (The period starting from receiving the recipient’s request which is duly submitted until initiating any action on the service by the team). The Contractor shall determine the response period of the first support team for service requests at different levels. The shorter the period is, the more likely is Contractor’s efficiency and ability to provide better service.
Processing Period: (The period starting from initiating action on a service request, including escalating the same to a higher level until the completion of the due provision of service to the recipient). The Contractor shall specify such period at all levels. The shorter the period is, the more likely is Contractor’s efficiency and ability to provide satisfactory service and the more likely is the chance to accept its bid. Response and processing period by which the Contractor shall abide shall be specified by filling a table like the below table:
Escalation Management:
To ensure interest in processing the recipient’s request, the request or issue shall be technically or functionally escalated to a higher processing level to be determined by the Bidder in accordance with request priority.
Technical Escalation:
Processes requiring higher technical capabilities shall be escalated by the support officer at a certain level to a higher level according to the escalation matrix.

The Bidder shall specify the escalation destination in the escalation matrix (such as Bidder’s engineer or expert) until the issue is processed, noting that the processing period at the higher level to which the issue is escalated is within the processing period of the escalating level as per the originally specified processing period, not a new period.
Functional (Administrative) Escalation:
When the service is delayed, at different levels of support, beyond specified response or processing period, or when the response level or solution provided by the technical support team is inconsistent with the established policies and regulations, the issue shall be escalated to a higher level according to the Functional Escalation Matrix.
The Contractor shall specify the entity/officer to which/whom the issue shall be escalated.
Service Performance Level Assessment:
To ensure that the service is provided satisfactorily, the Contractor shall be assessed by AL DAWAA through the Service Performance Indicators Table below. The assessment shall be based on determining the contractor’s entitlement to payments:
Determining the percentage of due payments based on the results performance rate and its score for specified segments. If the Contractor receives a performance percentage of less than 90%, a Low-level Service Record shall be executed indicating the reasons for such a decline in service below the acceptable percentage.
The service level agreement between AL DAWAA and Contractor shall be reviewed if deemed fit by AL DAWAA, and additions or deletions may be made thereto.
The performance score will be determined on a monthly basis at the monthly performance review meeting with the designated team lead. In addition, the performance review will be aggregated on a quarterly basis in order to be reflected on the payment.
