{{Business Context Area<br />
|context=ArchiSurance uses providers of external services (so called "Cloud services"). ArchiSurance uses these external services for support of innovative projects and sales events. Although ArchiSurance does not manage these facilities itself, it should impose proper Quality Demands on the service offerings of external/cloud providers in order to safeguard important business processes.<br />

|accountability=MP<br />
|accountability reason=When using external resources, service providers should supply "pay per use" as one of the drivers to obtain these services externally. Business units incurring them should be charged according to the use they make of these services, in order to put a brake on intractable consumption of these offerings.<br />
|availability=Medium<br />
|availability reason=Providers should at least take care of a "Medium" availability level, for sales events a "High" availability level is advisable.<br />
