Master Professional Services Agreement

"I need a Belgian law Master Professional Services Agreement for my IT consulting company to provide software development and maintenance services to clients in the financial sector, with strong data protection provisions and service level requirements."

Document background
The Master Professional Services Agreement is designed for businesses operating in Belgium that require a flexible framework for engaging professional service providers on an ongoing basis. This agreement is particularly suitable when a company anticipates requiring various professional services over time and wants to establish standardized terms, avoiding the need to negotiate separate agreements for each engagement. It incorporates Belgian law requirements, including mandatory B2B provisions introduced by the April 4, 2019 law, GDPR compliance, and specific provisions regarding language requirements in different Belgian regions. The agreement allows for services to be ordered through individual service orders while maintaining consistent terms for quality standards, liability, intellectual property rights, and data protection across all engagements.
