PLAYBOOK TEMPLATES
Material Transfer Agreement (MTA)
An MTA governs the transfer of tangible research materials between organizations. This playbook highlights confidentiality, permitted use, and ownership of resulting data or inventions.
Audit and Inspection Rights
Negotiation strategy
Ensure the audit rights are comprehensive, covering all necessary records and processes. Negotiate for reasonable frequency and scope to avoid excessive disruption.
Limit the audit scope to relevant records and processes. Ensure confidentiality of findings and minimize business disruption during audits.
Essential elements

2
Scope of Audit

3
Confidentiality of Findings

Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits if the audit scope is too broad or lacks confidentiality provisions.
