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.
Liability and Indemnification
Negotiation strategy
Negotiate a liability cap that reflects the total fees paid and ensure indemnity obligations are mutual. Clearly define indemnity triggers to protect against unforeseen claims.
Advocate for a reasonable liability cap and ensure indemnity obligations are reciprocal. Clarify indemnity triggers to avoid unexpected liabilities.
Essential elements
1
Liability Cap
Limits total financial exposure.
2
Indemnity Triggers
Defines events triggering indemnity.
3
Reciprocal Indemnification
Mutual protection against claims.
Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits if liability caps are too high or indemnity triggers are unclear.
EDIT

ADD

PRO TIP

Real-world examples
FAVORABLE
Preferred Liability Cap
"The total aggregate liability of either party under this Agreement shall not exceed the amount paid or payable by the Buyer to the Seller under this Agreement during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim."
NEUTRAL
Reciprocal Indemnification
"Both parties agree to provide reciprocal indemnification to each other for any third-party claims arising from the actions or omissions of the indemnifying party, provided that such claims are not due to the indemnified party's negligence or willful misconduct."
UNFAVORABLE
Unlimited Liability
"Neither party shall have any cap on liability, exposing both to unlimited financial risk."
Alternative scenarios & positions
High-Risk Projects
In high-risk projects, ensure liability caps are adjusted to reflect potential exposure and indemnity triggers are comprehensive.
International Contracts
For international contracts, consider jurisdiction-specific indemnity clauses to ensure compliance with local laws.
Startup Agreements
In startup agreements, negotiate lower liability caps to protect limited resources and ensure mutual indemnification.
