Model Software Development Agreement With CommentsSoftware Development Agreement • November 5th, 2021 • Massachusetts
This Model Agreement is intended as a reference for Harvard personnel who intend to license an off-the-shelf software system that will require modifications that will involve the writing of customized software for Harvard. Because of its complexity, it will be the rare Harvard client who will use this Model Agreement without assistance from the OGC. This Model Agreement assumes that the vendor will perform every conceivable task related to software licensing such as writing code, providing maintaince, and training our staff. It is not necessarily the case, however, that a single consultant will perform all these tasks, so this Model Agreement might have to be divided into different contracts for different consultants. Also, a consultant may insist on using its form contracts for all or parts of the transaction. In this case, this Model Agreement can be used to compare the rights and obligations set out in the consultant's forms with those deemed acceptable to Harvard.
