If you often propose both consulting / build type of services, alongside support arrangements, we can build a Master Services Agreement that’s perfectly suited to your needs.

All your professional services – including build and consultancy – are covered in a Professional Services Agreement.

It acts as a framework agreement, supported by statements of work. Building an excellent client relationship is easy when you have the right documents and specialist advice.

A statement of work is the first step to defining what you’ll provide for a client.

For all statements of work, it’s important that the terminology and the right information is inserted to marry up the main agreement.

Our expert lawyers can help you write the perfect statement of work.
