What is a Master Service Agreement?
A Master Service Agreement is a legally binding contract in which two parties, a customer and a service provider, agree on the terms and conditions governing all long-term transactions between them. Agreements like these are essential in industries that require many interactions between a service provider and a consumer and may include a different statement of work for each.
Advantages of Master Service Agreement
Faster Process Than Standard Contract Negotiations
When a company creates a contract, it is frequently time-consuming and costly. It is in both parties’ best interests to reach an agreement as soon as possible. A master services agreement allows you to agree on the essential elements, which speeds up the negotiation process. A comprehensive master services agreement can be written in a few weeks or even days faster than most contract negotiations.
Protection For Both Parties
Even if you are not going through a traditional contract negotiation, the MSA nonetheless establishes an agreement. If a disagreement arises, the agreement will determine who is at fault. A master services agreement is simple to check, which reduces the likelihood of the two parties going to court, saving money and time.
Blueprint For Future Agreement
If you like the master services agreement you write, you can use it as a template for future negotiations. Of course, each transaction requires unique specifics, but you will have a framework that helps both sides focus on crucial parts of the conversation.
