- Pre Installation and Related Issues. The parties recognize and acknowledge that some quoted products may include client software for Customer that may be installed on Customer’s computers that are at the same time running other imaging or business applications such as PACS. While the Seller will provide specifications for computers running supplied client software, due to possible conflicts and problems, Seller nor manufacturer can or will guarantee that client software on Customer’s computers with other simultaneous applications. To help minimize any potential unexpected problems or delays, Customer strongly recommends (and Customer hereby acknowledges it understands and will act upon such strong recommendation) that whenever feasible and allowed by manufacturer) Customer’s IT staff shall perform software validation of all critical client stations by using loaner client software and/or a trial server. The parties recognize that normally this would involve doing trial installations of client software and then thereafter validating proper operation while using other computer applications in differing scenarios. Customer agrees to uninstall all client software and return the loaner server after such testing, and assumes responsibility for correcting immediate and future operational problems of client software that are not attributable to a design or manufacturing defect. If the Customer determines that the software does not perform reliably on its own business computers, Customer’s sole remedy will be to purchase dedicated computers to run system software from Seller or from another third party.
- Installation Plan / Lay Out and Training. Once the Customer has accepted Seller’s offer in writing, Seller may prepare a detailed installation, training, and lay out / configuration plan. If Seller elects to do the foregoing, Seller will ask for Customer’s written approval before accepting Customer’s order. It is possible that this detailed plan may uncover issues previously not addressed by the parties, and the Seller may have to prepare a revised quotation for Customer. If this occurs, Customer agrees to help Seller by giving Seller site and other related information as requested by Seller. Customer’s help may include but not be limited to providing photographs, drawings and measurements of Customer’s installation facility, obtaining technical information about power, wiring, internet access, telephone, air conditioning, structural details of the building and any other technical information determined by Seller in its sole discretion to be necessary in order to carry out a successful installation. Customer hereby promises Seller that Customer shall be responsible for any additional installation costs Seller suffers as a result of incorrect, inaccurate, or incomplete information provided by Customer to Seller.
- Seller, or any agent authorized by Seller, shall be responsible to install and test Equipment hardware and software. Seller shall either install client software on dedicated computers sold by Seller to Customer or assist / train Customer’s IT staff to install client software if the software is to be installed on Customer’s business computers. Pursuant to Seller’s recommendations referenced above for validation of client software, Customer hereby promises that it is Customer’s responsibility to correct any problems with the client software resulting from the hardware or operating system not meeting published specifications, from malfunction of hardware or co-resident software, and conflicts with other software.
- Installation Schedule Overview / Parameters / Expedite Fee. Customer recognizes and acknowledges that the installation of the Equipment is not an exact science. There are many factors outside of Seller’s control that affect installation. Therefore Seller cannot guarantee delivery dates or installation time estimates. To minimize unexpected problems and in order for Seller to make every reasonable effort to meet Customer’s expectations, Customer must provide Seller with at least 14 calendar day’s advance written notice from the confirmed installation date. The confirmed installation date is the date on which all installation variables, as determined by Seller, will be satisfied. Should Customer be unable or unwilling to provide Seller with at least 14 calendar day’s advance written notice, then Customer hereby recognizes, acknowledges, and promises to pay Seller an expedite fee of at least $500. For example, and by illustration only, should Customer on December 1st ask Seller in writing to install Equipment on December 15th or later and should Seller determine that all installation variables will be met by December 15th, then Customer shall incur no expedite fee. However, in the foregoing example, should Customer ask for installation on or before December 14th in writing, then Customer would owe Seller an expedite fee of $500. Finally, should Seller have to re arrange travel arrangements already made for a scheduled installation because Customer needs to postpone an already scheduled installation, Customer hereby promises to pay Seller for any costs Seller incurs in having to re arrange travel and/or lodging.
- Training Schedule. Training will be arranged by mutual written consent. However, when on location training is planned, Customer agrees to help lessen Seller’s (or Seller’s agents) travel and training time by having all required personnel available at the same time for training in a particular aspect of system operation.

Seller is responsible during Seller’s warranty period for supplying all freight costs and labor to make repairs or corrections under these third party warranties but Seller is not otherwise a party to such warranties and Seller makes no warranties, either express or implied, with respect to these third party warranties.
