Commitment to collaborate Clause Samples

Commitment to collaborate. All parties agree to work together in a constructive manner to meet SGMA requirements based on a locally driven approach. No one is to benefit at the expense of others, and all parties agree to negotiate in good faith – communicating their interests, honoring commitments and acting consistently across different forums. • Strive for consensus. SGMA demands close collaboration and coordination among the GSAs if the subbasin is to develop a credible and effective GSP. To ensure broad support, parties recognize the imperative to reach broad agreement among all parties and will strive for consensus throughout the process. • Rely on credible process. To ▇▇▇▇▇▇ effective dialogues, parties agree to mutually support a transparent and inclusive process where parties: (1) have a voice through balanced representation and effective meeting protocols; (2) commit to rely on credible data and clear criteria to inform decision-making; (3) draw on the advice of a technical advisor(s) selected by the Working Group to support its development of a GSP; and (4) commit to resolve differences but include mechanisms to avoid impasse. Additionally, the convening/facilitation team is to work in service of all parties. • Build progress through incremental agreements. Participants will use preliminary agreements on issues as the basis for progress towards final agreement. The Working Group will revisit preliminary agreements when new information emerges and again when finalizing overall recommendations.

Commitment to collaborate. The Parties wish to fully embrace the principles of collaboration in the performance of the Work of this Project.

Create a culture of open and honest communication throughout the course of the Project; B. Resolve disputes at the lowest possible level; C. Integrate the design and construction team (including key specialty contractors and trade partners) as early as possible into the design process; ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ lean construction methods efficiently and effectively; ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ a collaborative environment where all parties have the opportunity to contribute their best efforts for the benefit of the Project as a whole rather than to the benefit of individual parties; and ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ business terms that allow for equitable shared risk and reward for the parties who are members of the Design-Build Team.
