Document background
The Subconsultant Agreement is essential in professional services arrangements where specialized expertise or additional resources are required to fulfill client obligations. This document is commonly used when a primary consultant needs to engage external expertise while maintaining control over client relationships and project delivery. Under Pakistani law, particularly the Contract Act 1872, this agreement establishes clear lines of responsibility, payment terms, and performance standards. It's crucial for protecting intellectual property, maintaining confidentiality, and ensuring compliance with local tax and regulatory requirements. The agreement typically includes detailed specifications of services, quality standards, delivery timelines, and commercial terms, while addressing risk allocation between parties.
