Key Requirements PROMPT example:

Intermodal Agreement

"I need an Intermodal Agreement for transporting automotive parts from Rotterdam to Munich, combining road and rail transport, with special provisions for just-in-time delivery and handling of sensitive electronic components, to commence from March 2025."

Document background
The Intermodal Agreement serves as a crucial legal framework for companies engaged in complex multimodal transport operations within and from the Netherlands, one of Europe's primary logistics hubs. This document is essential when parties need to establish clear terms for transportation services involving multiple modes of transport, typically combining road, rail, sea, and/or inland waterway transportation. The agreement addresses the unique challenges of multimodal transport, including transfer of liability between different transport modes, documentation requirements, and coordination between various service providers. It incorporates relevant Dutch legal requirements, EU regulations, and international transport conventions, making it particularly suitable for operations centered in or passing through the Netherlands. The document is designed to provide comprehensive coverage of operational procedures, risk allocation, and liability regimes while maintaining flexibility to accommodate specific commercial requirements.
