2. Can a Company use its Master Services Agreement?
Yes, but only if the Company agrees to pay a review fee of $18,000 that will be invoiced separately. Why the fee? GPTW has quoted to Company the lowest price for its products and services. This low-price quote means accepting the GPTW Order Form and /or SOW and the GPTW Products and Services Agreement found at the website: www.greatplacetowork.com/Products-and-Services-Agreement. The quote does not include what GPTW needs to be compensated for the extra time and personnel required to perform the review and the documentation that must be developed just for your Company. It is important to note that because of the unique products and services being delivered by GPTW, a company’s Master Services Agreement definitely will not properly address Data ownership, Data processing, compliance with global privacy compliance laws, compliance with all Data Protection Laws, compliance with Data security industry standards, etc.

A survey is static in time and may not cover the entire term of the company’s engagement.
5. Will GPTW provide Certificates of Insurance (COI)?
Yes, but only if the Company agrees to pay a review fee of $2,000 that will be invoiced separately. Why the fee? GPTW has quoted to Company the lowest price for its products and services.
