I. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
1. Introduction
The Agency has an on-premise installation of Claris FileMaker Server v13 software. The Agency needs to recover administrative-level user access to this software and then port the database running on it to FileMaker Cloud. This project would occur in three successive phases.
In Phase 1 of the project, project staff will recover administrative-level user access to FileMaker Server v13. Project staff will then create new administrative-level user access credentials for the Agency. Finally, project staff will create two (2) backups of the database running on the FileMaker Server software.
In Phase 2 of the project, project staff will create a new database for the Agency on the FileMaker Cloud platform. This database will be identical to the structure (schema) of the Agency's existing on-premise FileMaker database.
In Phase 3 of the project, project staff will upload a copy of the Agency's on-premise FileMaker database to the new FileMaker Cloud database created in Phase 2. Project staff will then verify the success of the database transfer to the cloud via a series of verification checks.
2. Background
The Agency desires to modernize its database infrastructure by moving to FileMaker Cloud. To do this, the Agency needs project staff to access its instance of FileMaker Server v13 and backup the database running on it, create a new instance of its database on the FileMaker Cloud platform, and then transfer a copy of its existing on-premise FileMaker database to FileMaker Cloud.
The Agency's existing on-premise database has approximately 7,300 records. Each record has the same forty-five (45) fields:

• 25 Text fields
• 9 Number fields
• 4 Date fields
• 4 Calculation fields
• 3 Summary fields

The database does not appear to have any container fields. The Agency already has a subscription to FileMaker Cloud.
3. Scope of Work
3.1. Phase 1: Recover Admin-Level Access to FileMaker Server
Project staff will gain administrative-level user access to the Agency's on-premise instance FileMaker Server v13 and create a new set of administrative-level access credentials for the Agency. Project staff will then create two local backups of the Agency's FileMaker database.
3.1.1.Recover administrative-level user access to FileMaker Server v13.
3.1.2.Create one (1) set of administrative-level user access credentials to FileMaker Server.
3.1.3.Create two (2) backups of the database running on FileMaker Server.
3.2. Phase 2: Create New Database in FileMaker Cloud Identical in Structure to Existing On-Premise Database
Project staff will create a new (unpopulated) database on the FileMaker Cloud platform that duplicates the structure (schema) of the Agency's existing on-premise FileMaker database.
3.2.1.Create new database on FileMaker Cloud duplicating the existing on-premise database structure and function.
3.3. Phase 3: Transfer a Copy of the On-Premise FileMaker Database to FileMaker Cloud
Project staff will upload a copy of the Agency's on-premise FileMaker database to the new FileMaker Cloud database created in Phase 2. Using the existing on-premise database as a reference, project staff will then verify that the new cloud database is accurately populated and fully functional.
3.3.1.Verify readiness of on-premise FileMaker database copy for upload to FileMaker Cloud
3.3.2.Remediate any pre-upload issues (if necessary)
3.3.3.Upload database copy to FileMaker Cloud
3.3.4.Verify cloud database functionality and accuracy by...
3.3.4.1. Ensuring all records have successfully uploaded
3.3.4.2. Ensuring all record data fields function properly
3.3.4.3. Selecting at least 350 nonsequential records and comparing them to the same record in the on-premise database to ensure all data fields have properly populated
3.3.4.4. Certifying the above to the Agency
Note: Task 3.3.3 may be adjusted to uploading a sample of individual records should no backup copy of the Agency's entire database be successfully created during Phase 1. A modified version of Task 3.3.4 would then follow. The Agency and project staff will mutually agree upon a revised sample size for Task 3.3 and verification process for Task 3.4 if Phase 1 work cannot be completed.
Deliverables
