HSConnects Services Agreement
This Agreement(the"Agreement")is made by and between the Board of County Commissioners
of the County of Arapahoe ("Arapahoe County") and the Board of County Commissioners of
Pitkin County(the"Subscribing County") as of the , 2017.
I. Purpose of Agreement This Agreement defines the relationship between Arapahoe County,
the provider of the HSConnects computing platform and other software applications, and the
Subscribing County This is an addendum to the GovPnme Intergovernmental Agreement (the
"GovPrime Agreement") between Arapahoe County and the Subscribing County to define
HSConnects services provided.
2, Definitions Defined terms in the GovPrime Agreement apply to this Agreement.
2.1. Tier 3 Support is support for issues that are due to software defects or environmental issues
related to the functionality of the HSConnects at the SaaS level Tier 3 Support does not
cover issues with the Subscribing County's environment, as those issues are not within
Arapahoe County's control.Tier 3 Support also does not support issues that are a result of
configuration changes in the software made by the Subscribing County that create unde-
sirable results, unless the issue is due to a defect in the software or environment
3 Services Arapahoe County agrees to provide to Subscribing County access to all core func-
tionality to HSConnects as a SaaS.
3.1. Subscription Service HSConnects is a SaaS and this Agreement grants access to the ser-
vices on a named user basis This Agreement does not grant ownership rights to the Sub-
scribing County. The GovPrime Agreement grants a license to the Subscribing County.
3.2 Additional Solutions. Over time, Arapahoe County anticipates building additional solu-
tions that may increase functionality of HSConnects. Because the Subscribing County may
not be interested in these additional solutions,Arapahoe County may opt to exclude these
solutions from the HSConnects SaaS offering in order to prevent the Subscribing County
from paying additional fees for unwanted solutions Therefore, this Agreement only rep-
resents the components that are considered part of the core functionality of HSConnects.

nects from State or third party data sources the Subscribing County may request that its
data be excluded from data imports. Requests will be honored unless there is a compelling
case made that excluding the data from the Subscribing County impacts the ability of the
other subscribing counties to complete their required duties, and that the Subscribing
County would normally have access to this data through common State or third party data
sources

scribing County on a mutually agreeable schedule, to be deter-
mined at the time the Incident is reported.

cases cost for support is included in the subscnption.

sponsible subscribing county should be solely responsible for
the costs . Support costs will be charged at the loaded em-
ployee pay rate for each individual being charged back.
High Severity Normal Support Hours
Description Major functionality is severely impaired for all Users or a sub-
set of users Business functions can continue in a diminished

6.4. Billing for the GovPnme platform and any Provisioned applications will be done quar-
terly. Payment terms are Net 30 days.
6.5. Pursuant to C.R.S § 29-1-110, as amended, the financial obligations of the Subscribing
County as set forth herein after the current fiscal year are contingent upon funds for that
purpose being appropriated, budgeted and otherwise available. This Agreement is auto-
matically terminated on January 1st of the first fiscal year for which funds are not appro-
priated The Subscribing County shall give Arapahoe County written notice of such non-
appropriation and termination in accordance with the provisions of Section 6 of the
GovPrime Intergovernmental Agreement.

subject to the provisions of paragraph 11 hereof, shall continue in full force and effect through
8. Extension or Modification This Agreement shall be automatically renewed for successive
periods of 12 months (each a"Renewal Term"),unless either party notifies the other party that

10 Data
10.1. Ownership All data and documents entered by the Subscribing County,functioning
as an agent of the State, into the HSConnects system shall be considered to be owned by
the State of Colorado, except for any documents or data that the federal government de-
clares ownership of as part of providing services on behalf of the state or the federal gov-
ernment. Resolution of any dispute regarding data ownerships between the Subscribing
County and the State or the federal government shall be the responsibility of the Subscrib-
ing County.
10.2. Data Sharing. Because there is tremendous value to all parties in sharing data re-
lated to the executing the administration of Human Services for the State, there is an ex-
pectation that all subscribing counties participate in data sharing. Arapahoe County will
work with subscribing counties to define what items should be shared between the sub-
scribing counties, and what items should be shared with the State. The other subscribing
counties, Subscnbing County and Arapahoe County will be tasked to create a framework
for sharing that supports each county's execution of local Human Services activities, but
protects the Subscribing County's and its employees'pnvacy and security. The other sub-
scribing counties, Subscribing County and Arapahoe County may also define data to share
with the State,when sharing predefined data with the State helps the subscribing counties
meet State requirements or the Subscribing County's business process.
10 3. Data Retention. Various state and federal programs require the retention of data
that may be uploaded into HSConnects for various durations. HSConnects will have a
mechanism to purge data and files based on state, federal and or community established
retention guidelines. If the Subscribing County needs access to files beyond the scheduled
purged date, it is the Subscribing County's responsibility to secure a copy of all needed
files. This may be accomplished by downloading a copy to the Subscnbing County's
system. In the future, there will be a process to mark files "do not purge unit", but until
that functionality is in place it will be up to the Subscribing County to maintain copies of
files that it needs post purge date.
10 4. Backup and Recovers, HSConnects will be built with functionality to allow Users
to recover deleted files on a single file basis. Arapahoe County also has plans to build the
functionality for versioning. Arapahoe County will provide basic training on the capabil-
ities of file recovery and versioning,but it is the responsibility of the Subscribing County
to understand the limitation of these tools. Arapahoe County will leverage from the Des-
ignated Partner redundant storage to help prevent data loss from hardware or environment
failures. Arapahoe County will also keep a backup copy of files and data for disaster
recovery purposes with a recovery point of no longer than 24 hours old Disaster recovery
copies will be used in the case of major system data loss.
11. Infrastructure Requirements. As requirements change from time to time, Arapahoe County
will make available, upon request, a reference sheet of hardware requirements for using
HSConnects
12. Release Management. Arapahoe County uses an Agile Methodology of development at this
time. As prescribed in Agile Methodology, Arapahoe County will perform frequent releases
Arapahoe County will perform any release that impacts the services during a maintenance win-
dow to be defined and communicated to the Subscribing County at least 72 hours in advance,
unless emergency maintenance is required. Arapahoe County reserves the right to perform off
cycle releases after hours or during business hours if system functionality needs to be restored
In the situation where maintenance is required outside of a maintenance window, Arapahoe
County will give the Subscribing County as much notice as reasonably possible.
13 General Provisions
13 I The Parties agree that in the event that the Subscribing County transitions to a soft-
ware solution other than the HSConnects, the Subscribing County may release the neces-
sary and detailed information solely for the purpose of facilitating the conversion of its
data to the new systems and that Arapahoe County will reasonably cooperate with the
Subscribing in said transition.
13.2. The provisions of Paragraphs 12 and 14-31 of the GovPrime Agreement are incor-
porated herein by this reference as if fully set forth.
