The Design Retainer Contract serves as a comprehensive legal framework for establishing and maintaining an ongoing design service relationship. It is particularly suitable for businesses requiring regular design work without the need for separate contracts for each project. This agreement, governed by Singapore law, typically includes provisions for service scope, payment terms, intellectual property rights, confidentiality, and quality standards. It ensures compliance with Singapore's Contract Act, Copyright Act, and other relevant legislation while providing clarity and protection for both parties.
