Manufacturing agreement
A manufacturing agreement for use where a customer commissions a manufacturer to produce finished products. This standard document is drafted for situations where the customer owns the intellectual property but lacks the internal manufacturing capacity. It outlines key terms governing the manufacture and supply of products, including the ordering process, quality control standards, delivery and acceptance protocols. The agreement also addresses commercial arrangements such as minimum purchase obligations, price review mechanisms and volume discounts. The agreement is drafted to be broadly neutral between the manufacturer and the customer.
