Procurement Master Purchase Agreement
A Procurement Master Purchase Agreement defines the terms for purchasing goods or services at scale, streamlining vendor relationships under one umbrella contract. This playbook focuses on commercial leverage, service levels, and compliance mechanisms that drive long-term value.
IP Ownership & Licensing
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that all IP created during the contract is owned by the Company. Negotiate for broad licenses to use any necessary IP from the Contractor to support business operations.
Retain ownership of pre-existing IP and negotiate for fair compensation for any IP developed during the contract. Limit the scope of licenses granted to the Company to protect proprietary technology.
Essential elements
1
Ownership Clause
Defines IP ownership rights.
2
License Grant
Outlines scope of IP licenses.
3
Confidentiality
Protects IP confidentiality.
Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits if the ownership or license terms do not align with strategic goals.
EDIT
Reject clauses that fail to protect pre-existing IP or impose unreasonable restrictions.
ADD
Add clauses to address future innovations and confidentiality if missing.
PRO TIP
Always ensure IP clauses are clear and align with your business strategy to avoid future disputes.
