Improved competitiveness Clause Samples
The "Improved competitiveness" clause is designed to address situations where one party gains a competitive advantage, often through better pricing, technology, or service offerings, during the term of an agreement. Typically, this clause allows the other party to request adjustments to the contract terms—such as price reductions or enhanced services—if they can demonstrate that similar offerings are available elsewhere under more favorable conditions. Its core practical function is to ensure that both parties remain on fair and competitive terms throughout the contract, preventing one side from being disadvantaged by market changes or advancements.
