Why You Need This Template
A legally sound agreement is the foundation for smooth collaboration. Our Operations Consulting Agency Agreement helps you:
- Define the consultant’s deliverables and responsibilities clearly from the outset.
- Protect confidential information and respect intellectual property ownership.
- Establish fair and transparent compensation and expense reimbursement terms.
- Set expectations around the termination process, limiting future disputes.
- Ensure the relationship is recognized as that of an independent contractor, not an employer–employee, safeguarding both parties from misclassification risks.
(Similar templates, including for consulting services, emphasize legal clarity and contractor status to mitigate risk.)
