Warranty Service Agreement

A Warranty Service Agreement details how defects, repairs, and replacements are handled during a product’s warranty period. This playbook emphasizes negotiating fair remedies, service levels, and liability limitations that align with operational realities.

Termination & Exit Provisions

Why This Matters: Rigid or unclear termination clauses can trap the client in suboptimal arrangements and hinder operational agility.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Customer:

Negotiate for flexible termination rights, including termination for convenience with reasonable notice periods. Ensure transition obligations are clearly defined to minimize disruption.

If you're the Manufacturer:

Aim to secure longer notice periods and potential termination fees to mitigate sudden contract terminations. Ensure compliance with jurisdiction-specific requirements.

Notice Period

Alternative scenarios & positions

High-Risk Projects

In high-risk projects, ensure termination clauses allow for immediate exit in case of significant underperformance or breach.

For long-term contracts, negotiate periodic review clauses to reassess termination terms and ensure they remain aligned with business needs.

Jurisdiction-Specific Compliance

Adapt termination clauses to comply with local laws, which may impose specific notice requirements or restrictions.
