  • Present all implementation proposals to Customers using the Solution Design Document (SDD) and Scope of Work (SOW) template approved by Simetrik.

7. Intellectual Property

All rights in Simetrik‘s SaaS Platform, methodologies, and tools remain solely with Simetrik.

Simetrik reserves the right to:

  • Conduct audits, surveys, and client feedback assessments.

  • Intervene or reassign a project if the Partner’s performance jeopardizes Customer satisfaction or Customer agreement continuity.

Responsibility for Implementation Quality and Customer Success – The Partner will sign a separate agreement directly with the Customer to deliver implementation services for Simetrik’s SaaS Platform. Because the quality of implementation can affect how the Customer uses and values Simetrik, Simetrik reserves the right to monitor how those services are delivered.

If the Partner:

  • seriously breaches its agreement with the Customer,
  • causes that agreement to end early due to its own actions or failures, or
  • negatively affects Simetrik’s relationship with the Customer or the Customer’s use of Simetrik,

then Simetrik may:

  • step in by assigning another Partner or an internal Simetrik team to continue the project with the Customer, and
  • charge the Partner for the costs we incur in doing so, up to the full amount the Partner originally quoted the Customer for that project.

Before Simetrik takes these steps, it will notify the Partner in writing and give them ten (10) business days to fix the issue, unless the situation requires urgent action to protect the customer relationship. 

If this happens, Simetrik may also review the Partner’s participation in other projects or in the Simetrik Partner Program.

9. Limitations

  • The Partner may not subcontract, assign, or transfer any implementation obligations or services without Simetrik’s prior written approval.
  • Simetrik is not responsible for collections or client payments related to the Partner’s services.
