Technology - Agreements

Legal issues are not new or unique to technology, e-commerce, and technology outsourcing contracts. Although the information and technology age has transformed much of what businesses do and how they do it, basic principles of sound commercial contract drafting and negotiation have not changed. It is just as critical in technology transactions as it is in other commercial transactions that a client clearly express in his written agreement who will be doing what, who will own what, and when, how, and to what standard the outsourced work will be performed.  

What has changed in the past few years, however, is the value to businesses of technology, information, and e-commerce processes. Such value has ascended considerably. Clients must take extra care when they deal with functions that involve these "crown jewels." A commercial agreement must clearly address the ownership and protection of these assets, as well as the allocation and management of risks posed by their unauthorized or improper use. Careful drafting and negotiation of technology, e-commerce, and outsourcing contracts are extremely important functions.
