Construction companies, freelancers, independent marketing specialists, and even engineers—all these entities survive on project-based sources of income. What this means is that these are often hired by an individual or an entity to perform specific tasks for a certain duration of time that a project is still being carried out to its fruition. In a way, these project-based service providers and suppliers are essential components of a project team.

If you are involved in providing services per project, then you must learn how to create a proper project contract.

What Is a Project Contract?

This contract is created in order for one party to hire another to fulfill certain obligations within the duration of time that a project’s goals are still being executed. To desist from being too abstract, here are examples of instances when a project contract is necessary:

  • It helps construction companies establish specific terms for a construction project that they are hired to finish.
  • It helps artists such as interior designers, painters, and sculptors to engage in business with their clients in a manner that secures their right to adequate compensation and professional fee.
  • It helps business owners to make an agreement with a manager or specialist to create and implement management proposals that can
    • increase profits,
    • improve employees’ productivity, and
    • increase company’s exposure.

Speaking of contract agreements, we also have a collection of production contract templates that you may use if you are involved in manufacturing certain parts, equipment, or products for a distributing business or retailer. Furthermore, our website also offers development contract templates for those who provide development services to various entities.

Tips in Creating a Project Contract

  • Project Proposal. Before any contract can be created, the initial step would be the project proposal. This proposal can be made through verbal or written form.
  • Negotiation. After the project proposal, both parties of the contract must convene or communicate in order to discuss all the necessary specifics of the project. This detailed description of the actions to take in the realization of a project would serve as a basis for the formulation of the terms of the project contract.
  • Drafting the Contract. When writing the terms of project contract, make sure that you include the following:
    • the duration of the project
    • the obligations of all parties
    • the deadline for each step of the project
    • the consequences should one party fail to perform his/her part of the project contract
  • Signing the Contract. Finally, as all the necessary information of the contract have been stipulated, the contract cannot be considered as an effective one without the affixed signature of all contractual parties.
