What data is required for Which contracts should we review?

The following data is required about contracts in order to have meaningful results:

• Every contract should have the Start Date, End Date, and Review Date attributes defined. If contract items are defined for contracts, the Start Date, End Date, and Review Date attributes should also be defined.
• Every contract (or its contract items) should have contract deliverables defined. The specification of each contract deliverable should include the Architecture Element which indicates the application or component as well as the volume of licenses that is being bought.
• The applications and components specified as architecture elements should have the Start Date and End Date attributes defined as well as their lifecycle statuses defined.
• Ideally each contract also has a predecessor contract specified so that it is clear what dependencies exist between predecessor and successor contracts.

Go to the Data Quality page and resolve the issues to ensure that the data is complete.

Go to the Data Source page to review the vendors, contracts, applications, and components that are used to answer the business question. The data source is a list report and cannot be edited.
