Service Framework Agreement

"I need a Service Framework Agreement under Swiss law for providing IT infrastructure and cloud services to multiple European clients, with strong data protection provisions and flexibility to add new services through service orders starting March 2025."

Document background
The Service Framework Agreement is designed for business relationships where one party will provide services to another on an ongoing basis, with specific services to be defined through separate service orders. This contract type is particularly useful for long-term business relationships where the scope and nature of services may evolve over time. The agreement complies with Swiss law requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations, and includes essential provisions for service delivery, intellectual property rights, data protection, and risk allocation. It serves as a master agreement that streamlines the procurement process by establishing standard terms that apply to all subsequent service orders, reducing negotiation time and ensuring consistency across multiple service engagements while maintaining flexibility to accommodate specific service requirements.
