Software Development Contract: Types and Main Points to Include

By signing a software development contract, you can protect your business from some setbacks. If you don’t do it right, you may be wasting time in litigation. But don’t worry. A contract is your best defense against inevitable conflicts on issues such as:

  • Intellectual property rights. Who stores the software and code?
  • Stages of work. How do you determine how much work needs to be done at each stage of the project?
  • Payment. What kind of payment terms are acceptable to both parties?
  • Copyrighted material. Who owns the copyrighted material used in software development?
  • Characteristics. This is one of the most important parts of the contract. Well-written specifications define exactly what the finished product will be like.
