Timeline for Snyk Jumpstart Basic delivery

Snyk Jumpstart Basic delivery is a 30-day engagement that begins with the Jumpstart Basic Kickoff call.

For customers starting their journey with Snyk, Jumpstart Basic includes initial Platform Configuration and each product module that has been purchased.

If the Jumpstart Basic project is for an existing Snyk customer, the Platform Configuration content is adjusted to reflect this, with the Snyk consultant providing a ‘healthcheck’ review of the existing configuration, before working through the onboarding of new features or products.

Additional terms

The fees for this project will be a fixed price. Services will be invoiced in full at the time of purchase and are non-refundable.

Upon purchase, the Snyk implementation team will coordinate a pre-engagement call at a time that works for both parties. Note that Jumpstart Basic services expire 60 days after our consultant's first outreach, regardless of customer engagement. All Jumpstart Basic Services automatically conclude either upon project completion or 30 days following the kick-off call, whichever occurs first.

Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing, a) services must be scheduled as agreed prior to the Kickoff call; b) product modules will be delivered consecutively; and c) all services will occur during normal business hours.

All services will be performed remotely.
