    Project Overview and Objectives

    The objective of this project is to provide the CUSTOMER with a detailed assessment of a customer’s site as it relates to the possibility of installing a WaterCompass product in one or more locations. The result of this will be in the format of a WaterCompass Site Assessment Report (WC SAR). HydroPoint will provide the WC SAR directly to the CUSTOMER, and will also use the information gathered to identify and prioritize opportunities to propose WaterCompass installations and services.

    Scope of Work

    The CONTRACTOR shall document thoroughly each potential installation location on each site by answering all questions in the WC SAR form. The CONTRACTOR shall take clear and usable photos of each element where required.  When adding notes and descriptions, the CONTRACTOR shall use verbiage that is clear and understandable by non-irrigation or plumbing personnel.

    Project Administration

    Work Orders

    After this scope of work has been signed and accepted by the CONTRACTOR, and prior to the project starting, the Project Manager will issue a work order for each site to be assessed by the CONTRACTOR.   The work order shall include specifics for each site, including the number and locations of each site to be assessed, specific timing requirements, and pricing specifics.   

    Any adjustments to the scope of work to be performed, whether initiated by HydroPoint or as a result of site conditions discovered before or during the site assessment, must include an amended or additional work order, as determined by the Project Manager. All adjustments to the scope shall be communicated in writing.  

    Pricing

    Pricing for this project will be based on the pricing schedule included with the Work Order. Any expense above or beyond the pricing detail in the Work Order must have a request submitted to and approved by the Project Manager.

    Invoicing

    Invoices should be sent to apbilling@hydropoint.com; copying the Project Manager. Invoice approval is subject to verification of work completed and HydroPoint’s receipt of a valid SAR. Payment terms are NET30 from date of invoice approval. 

    Invoices must reference the work order for each site when submitted to HydroPoint for payment. Invoices will not be paid unless a work order is referenced for each site on the invoice. Example Invoice:
