New Business Request Clause Samples
The New Business Request clause outlines the process by which one party may formally request additional services or work beyond the original scope of an agreement. Typically, this clause specifies the required format for submitting such requests, the information that must be included, and the timeline for the other party to review and respond. For example, a client might use this clause to request a new project or service from a contractor, triggering a review and approval process. Its core function is to provide a clear, structured method for expanding the business relationship while ensuring both parties agree on the terms of any new work.
New Business Request. 2.1 France Telecom also shall be permitted to request the development of new or modified facilities or service options which may not be required by the Act.
