“We engaged SES to protect our commercial arrangements with a long-standing supplier to ensure that all material required for our continued use and development of the products being provided by our supplier (e.g., source code, product designs, files, drawing, schematics and reports etc) was secured against the supplier failing to meet its commitments under the service contract.
SES worked with us to provide bespoke contractual arrangements that addressed our concerns and provided validation services to test the effectiveness of our protections. Working with SES and their validation process afforded us a far greater insight into our supplier relationship than previously possible. As a result, we now have improved our processes for supplier management. I would be happy to recommend SES and their business continuity solutions.”
Mitsubishi Electric wished to collaborate with SES Secure's experts to identify the best Software Escrow solution for verifying that a licensed application was complete, accurate, and fully capable of being redeployed in the event of supplier failure.
Following a thorough evaluation of Mitsubishi Electric's needs and preferences, SES Secure proposed an Individual Software Escrow Agreement as the most suitable option. As part of this process, SES delivered a Remote Source Code Validation exercise which ensured that in the event of a release, the application and data can be redeployed in a third-party environment.
As an outcome of the Software Escrow process with SES Secure, Mitsubishi Electric have complete peace of mind that what is held under Software Escrow is complete, accurate and can be redeployed using SES’s comprehensive Remote Code Validation testing report which provides a complete and documented Audio and Visual build report.
