Contracts help build relationships between buyers and sellers by allocating risks and responsibilities. Contracts can take many forms, such as purchase orders, formal contracts, letters of intent, or memorandums of understanding. The key elements of a valid contract are competent parties, consideration, lawful purpose, certainty of terms, offer, and acceptance. Contentious contract clauses include pricing and payment terms, liquidated damages, liability, warranties, and arbitration.

Standard Terms of Business and Non Standard TermsGary Chambers

This document provides an overview of standard and non-standard contracts from an insurance perspective. It discusses how insurers define the two types of contracts and how the differences affect insurance coverage. Standard contracts typically pass all liability to the hiring company, allowing lower premiums. Non-standard contracts vary and can pass liability back to the recruiting agency, requiring slightly higher premiums. The document outlines important clauses in contracts and insurance policies regarding liability and vicarious liability coverage for non-standard agreements.

This document discusses elements that should be included in contracts for custom software development projects with fixed prices. It recommends including: definitions, parties involved, documents incorporated like requirements specifications, what will be delivered, ownership of intellectual property rights, and procedures for handling changes to requirements. The contract aims to anticipate potential issues, define responsibilities clearly, and provide a framework for resolving disputes. Careful drafting of contracts is important for protecting all parties and avoiding problems down the road.

While large construction bonds can be easier to obtain than smaller ones, the determining factor is the nature of the commitment rather than the dollar amount. Performance and payment bonds ensure a construction project is completed per contract and subcontractors are paid, with the unpaid contract amount providing security even if the contractor fails. In contrast, wage and welfare bonds guarantee future union payments, making them riskier without collateral if the contractor becomes insolvent, as the surety would have to pay claims directly without reimbursement. As such, smaller bonds that ensure future financial obligations like wage and welfare bonds require full collateral due to the difficult nature of the commitment.

Working to a brief pro forma(1)Chris Bailey

The document discusses different types of client briefs that a designer may receive, including contractual, formal, informal, co-operative, negotiated, commission, tender, competition, and my brief. It emphasizes the importance of thoroughly reading and discussing the brief with the client prior to production to ensure both parties understand expectations. The informal brief this designer received provides flexibility while still including specifics to follow. Potential opportunities from working on this brief include self-development, learning new skills, multiskilling, and contributing to a commercial project.

Agile contractsCoachingSaga

The document discusses contract management for agile projects. It begins by noting that using traditional contracts for agile development can cause issues, as agile involves changing requirements throughout the project rather than defining all requirements up front. It then examines various agile contract models, including time and materials, fixed price per iteration, and variable price variable scope progressive contracts. It concludes that the major attributes of agile contracts are similar to traditional contracts but the content and legal approach must account for agile principles like collaboration, learning, and responding to change over following a rigid plan.

Why Outsourcing Deals FailAlex Todd

Most outsourcing deals fail because the trust between the client and outsourcing provider breaks down over time. Trust is essential for successful outsourcing relationships but can be subjective. To mitigate this, organizations should establish trust through objective mechanisms like pilot projects, clear requirements, and independent monitoring rather than solely relying on personal relationships. Taking steps to continuously establish and ensure trust through various mechanisms can help outsourcing relationships succeed in the long run.

The document discusses the legal requirements for excluding or modifying warranties in contracts. Section 2-316 of the Uniform Commercial Code specifies that language excluding implied warranties must be conspicuous to be valid. While lawyers may think using all capital letters automatically makes text conspicuous, the courts look at more factors than just formatting. Terms in small or hard-to-read capital letters buried deep in a document may still not be deemed conspicuous. Bold or larger text size are better ways to ensure terms are conspicuous rather than solely relying on capital letters. Historic practice of using all caps on typewriters does not determine legal standards of conspicuousness today.

A Conceptual Framework For B2B Electronic ContractingLuisa Polanco

This document proposes a conceptual framework for business-to-business contracting support. The framework provides a complete view of the contracting field and allows positioning research efforts in the domain. It identifies four main groups of contracting concepts: Who (parties involved), Where (context), What (content), and How (processes). Each concept group is then elaborated with increasing levels of detail. The framework is used to analyze two current research projects and identify future research areas, particularly related to improving contract enactment processes and cooperation support services.

This document provides an overview and comparison of permanent, contract, and temporary employment options. Contracting typically offers higher pay as contractors are hired for their specialist skills. Benefits of contracting include more flexibility in location, hours, and ability to gain experience by working for different companies. A fixed-term contract is similar to permanent employment but for a defined period, while temporary work involves doing a specific job for a set time and being paid regularly like a permanent employee. Payment terms vary between contracts, fixed-term roles, and temporary work.

Dual Australia, Contract Review ServiceStatewide Insurance Brokers

The document describes Dual Australia's Contract Review Service, which provides insureds with four contract reviews per policy period. The reviews are conducted by a legally qualified member of Dual's in-house claims team. The reviews identify whether contract liabilities are covered by the policy, suggest changes to bring contracts within policy coverage, and identify possible policy enhancements. The reviews also include a brief telephone consultation. Case studies demonstrate how the reviews saved clients costs in a negligence claim and intellectual property infringement exposure. Frequently asked questions provide additional details about the scope and use of the Contract Review Service.

Trust by Design: Rethinking Technology RiskSwatantra Kumar

In society, there is a growing call for trust in technology. Just think about the data leaks and privacy issues that hit the news almost on a daily basis. Organizations tackle these issues through risk management practices and implementing controls and measures to ensure meeting the risk appetite of the organization. But the implications go further, last year the Dutch privacy watchdog stated that organizations should be very careful in using Google cloud services due to their poor privacy practices. This is not only challenging for the vendor but also for the clients using the services. Another example is Apple. They are doubling down on privacy in their iCloud and iOS offerings, so users trust them more as a brand, which increases their market share. This raises several questions: What is trust? When do we decide to trust someone or something? And how can you become trusted? Do we overlook what trust really means, or do we have an innate sense for “trust”? But how does that work for organizations consisting of hundreds or thousands of people and complex business-to-business structures?

The insurance policy is a contract between the insurer and insured (policyholder) that determines what claims the insurer must pay. In exchange for a premium, the insurer promises to pay for losses covered under the policy language. Insurance policies have specific features not seen in other contracts to fulfill particular needs. The policy is generally an integrated agreement that includes all documents associated with the contract between insured and insurer.

The document discusses issues with <Client>'s insurance coverage, including: 1) It is not clear that <Client> has a contract requiring $1 million in completed operations coverage as the endorsement states. 2) The excess insurance policies do not expressly obligate <Client> to maintain the required underlying coverage and could be invalidated. 3) <Client>’s insurance coverage should not depend on contracts with other parties but protect itself, and the three year limit on completed operations could deny claims arising later. 4) A clause suggesting lack of maintenance could invalidate coverage would likely lead to denied claims and complicate matters.

Vue.js slots.pdfCommit University

A volte essere pigri è una qualità, evita (quasi) tutte le richieste di personalizzazioni lasciando "finestre aperte" nei tuoi componenti generici. Gli slots sono un modo per passare il contenuto a un componente in Vue.js. Permettono di definire una sezione nel template di un componente che può essere sostituita dall'esterno. È inoltre possibile assegnare un nome o uno "scope" agli slots, garantendo così maggiore controllo e personalizzazione sul contenuto. I "named slots" consentono di definire più slots nello stesso componente, assegnando dei nomi specifici. Gli "scoped slots" ti consentono di accedere dall'esterno ai dati interni del componente.
