Production Readiness Clause Samples
The Production Readiness clause establishes the requirements and standards that a product, system, or service must meet before it is considered ready for deployment in a live or operational environment. Typically, this clause outlines necessary testing, documentation, security checks, and performance benchmarks that must be satisfied prior to launch. For example, it may require successful completion of user acceptance testing or compliance with specific regulatory standards. Its core function is to ensure that the deliverable is fully prepared for real-world use, minimizing the risk of failures or disruptions after deployment.
Production Readiness. Subject to the circumstances described in Section 2(b) of this Agreement or the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the Orbital ATK Group shall maintain production readiness and the capacity necessary to fulfill any Binding FY Order or Additional Order accepted by LLC pursuant to paragraph (d) above.
