Details

Whether you are a legal adviser, IT supplier or IT purchaser, this fully updated edition of Drafting and Negotiating IT Contracts (formerly Drafting and Negotiating Computer Contracts) will ensure you have the edge in your negotiations. Covering a wide variety of IT contracts, each chapter provides an outline of the structure and contents of the contract, followed by sample clauses and drafting notes and key-point checklists.

Uniquely, this enables you to develop a contract from scratch by focusing on key points and producing a skeleton draft before a fully worked draft. No other book brings you such a useful and practical approach.
