Model Contract for Web Projects: A Briefing

---

We are sorry, but this event has been CANCELLED.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED. If you have already booked, please contact 020 7468 2272 for further details. Thank you.

In this evening presentation, Paul Randle will present a guide to the Model Contract for web projects that his company has developed in conjunction with NMK, ISBA and the IPA. Paul will describe how to customise the contract to fit your own requirements, and answer questions from the audience.

NMK's own Zoe Black will be introducing the talk, and providing advice on the steps to take before reaching the contract stage.

The talk is followed by an informal networking session, at which refreshments will be served.

The recently launched contract provides a template for web developers, interactive agencies and their clients to pick and choose legal clauses tailored to their relationships.

The contract is designed to be flexible, so that companies can adapt the terms to suit their circumstances and the details of specific projects. In his presentation, Paul will provide guidance on customising the contract, and will give advice on negotiating terms that are acceptable to both clients and developers.

The aim is to enable all parties to develop sound commercial agreements easily, cheaply and quickly, thereby encouraging good business practice and reducing the risk of conflict and disagreements between agencies and their clients.

Paul believes that "contract negotiation can discourage a smooth and effective transfer from the briefing process to specification" in web projects. "The Model Contract is specifically designed to address this area and so promote good relationships between web development agencies and clients,” he says.
