At a Glance

Software development occurs when a client hires a consultant, either an individual or a company, to create software specifically for their use.  There are two main aspects to this transaction: the consultancy and the software development.

The consultancy is no different from consultancy in other types of expert services and the precedents relating to consultancy agreements can be used.

The development of software involves the creation of intellectual property to order. The software development agreement handles all aspects of the process from the definition and specification of the client’s specifications through development and testing to delivery of the end product.  The scope of service to be supplied by the developer and ownership of the new intellectual property created are precisely defined in the agreements.

A Software Development Agreement is a legally structured document that defines the relationship between a software developer and a client, ensuring clear terms regarding development, delivery, intellectual property ownership, and payment. This agreement provides both parties with legal protection by setting expectations on project scope, timelines, and confidentiality. It is an essential tool for businesses, developers, and legal professionals looking to secure a structured and enforceable software development arrangement.
