Changes, disputes and termination
Changes to this SLA or the service scope need written agreement from both parties, after we assess feasibility, risk and impact. Each party nominates a contact for disputes. If they can't resolve a dispute in 14 days, it goes to executives, then to the process in your MSA. This SLA runs for the term of your contract and ends under the terms of that contract.
