Production and supply agreements

Assurance on production, delivery, and quality

When having custom products manufactured or making arrangements for regular deliveries of goods, a production or supply agreement is essential. These contracts form the legal basis for your supply chain and provide certainty about what is delivered, when, and under what conditions.

It is crucial for producers, suppliers, and buyers to establish clear agreements regarding expectations, obligations, and risks. This helps prevent delays, defects, or legal disputes.

What does a production or supply agreement regulate?

A well-drafted agreement includes, among other things:

• Specifications of the product and any quality standards
• Delivery deadlines, delivery schedules, and logistical arrangements
• Price agreements, payment terms, and currency (in the case of international contracts)
• Liability for damages or defects
• Purchase obligations or production quotas
• Warranties, inspections, and complaint procedures
• Force majeure, suspension, and termination
• Intellectual property in custom manufacturing

In many cases, additional provisions are also included, such as exclusivity, penalty clauses for delays, or agreements regarding raw material prices. Depending on the type of product and the country involved, incoterms may also play a role.
