Onboarding and Implemenation Terms

Onboarding & implementation terms 2025

These terms apply solely to onboarding and implementation of the CareMaster Platform. They do not replace the CareMaster Master Subscription Agreement or Platform Terms, which govern ongoing access, licensing, and use.

Section 1 — Guided onboarding

Guided onboarding

  • Regular check-ins from the Customer Success Team
  • Ability to book 1:1 time with the Customer Success Team
  • Access to digital learning resources — videos, articles, templates, and pathways

  • Actively engaging with onboarding tasks
  • Consuming and applying digital education materials
  • Completing configuration steps for their CareMaster environment
  • Providing timely responses and progress updates
Delays or failure to complete onboarding tasks do not pause or delay subscription billing. Billing begins from the date of signing, regardless of onboarding progress.

1.3 Support channels

CareMaster provides support primarily through digital channels:

  • Online learning materials, tutorials, help articles, and FAQs
  • Platform-integrated support documentation
  • Customer Care and Customer Success teams via online support channels in-platform

This is consistent with CareMaster's published Platform Terms: 24/7 self-help resources and business-hours support for administrators.

  • Allocate internal project resources, including SMEs and decision-makers
  • Attend or view required training content and complete assigned action items

Failure to meet these responsibilities may extend project timelines or result in additional fees.

2.3 Data access & confidentiality

2.3.1 Purpose-based access only

  • CareMaster and partners access customer systems solely for implementation purposes
  • Partners may only access the customer tenancy with customer approval
  • No partner receives direct backend access to CareMaster production systems

2.3.2 Handling of imported or accessed data

Customer data remains the exclusive property of the customer and is treated as confidential. Partners must:

  • Store and transmit data securely
  • Avoid exporting or retaining data outside the authorised implementation tenancy
  • Destroy or return all data at the end of the implementation period

2.3.3 Partner confidentiality obligations

Partners must not disclose customer data or CareMaster intellectual property. Breaches may result in immediate termination of access.


2.3.4 Customer data return / purge rights

Upon completion or written request, customers may request:

  • Return of data supplied for implementation (CSV files, configuration documentation)
  • Deletion of data loaded during onboarding
  • Removal of partner access to their tenancy

2.4 Additional fees

Services outside agreed scope — including extra training, re-implementation, or delays caused by customer inaction — are billed at an agreed hourly rate, quoted at the time of the additional work based on scope and complexity.

Unused hours are non-refundable.

2.5 Go-live criteria

A customer is considered ready for go-live once:

  • Platform configuration is complete
  • Core data is uploaded
  • Training sessions in the package have been delivered
  • The customer can commence day-to-day operational use
Billing for contracted licences begins regardless of whether go-live is achieved on schedule.

2.6 Relationship to platform terms

These Managed Implementation Terms apply only to the implementation project and do not alter or replace the CareMaster Platform Terms, which govern:

  • Licensing
  • Subscription billing
  • Ongoing support
  • Use of the CareMaster Platform

During a software demonstration for NDIS, the primary goals are:

Highlighting NDIS-specific features: The software demonstration should emphasise how the platform aligns with the requirements and guidelines of the NDIS scheme. It should showcase features that cater to the specific needs and workflows of NDIS Participants and service Providers.

Demonstrating core functionality: The demonstration should cover the core functions of the software, such as participant management, plan management, billing and invoicing, reporting, and compliance tracking. This helps potential users understand how the software can streamline their processes and enhance their efficiency.

Addressing participant and provider needs: The demonstration should demonstrate how the software addresses the needs of NDIS Participants, enabling them to manage their plans effectively. It should also showcase the benefits for service Providers, simplifying service delivery, documentation, and reporting.

Ensuring compliance and security: Demonstrations should highlight the software’s compliance with NDIS regulations and security measures to safeguard sensitive participant information and maintain data privacy.

Answering questions and concerns: The demo should be an interactive session where attendees can ask questions and seek clarification on specific features, workflows, pricing, and support services.
