FAQ
What are contracts and memoranda of agreement? The greatest difference between a contract and a memorandum of agreement is that a contract is a legal document and is enforceable in court, whereas a memorandum of agreement is neither.
While MSAs are the broad, foundational contract arrangements that outline the relationship between entities working with one another, the SOW is a far narrower agreement. A statement of work is often attached or appended to a master service agreement.
At its most basic, an MSA is a contract between two or more parties that establishes what terms and conditions will govern all current and future activities and responsibilities. MSAs are useful because they allow the parties to plan for the future while also speeding the ratification of future agreements.
Contracts address the specific details of a particular project, transaction, or engagement. Think of the master agreement as the foundation or umbrella under which contracts operate. It sets the general terms, while contracts focus on the specific details and scope of each individual project.
If they conflict, the terms of an MSA will generally supersede that of an SOW—unless the parties agree and state otherwise. Also, parties can terminate an SOW without it affecting other SOWs and the MSA the terminated SOW is under.
A master service agreement, sometimes known as a framework agreement, is a contract reached between parties, in which the parties agree to most of the terms that will govern future transactions or future agreements.
A contract is an agreement, but an agreement is not always a contract. An agreement can be informal or it may be written; a contract may be verbal or written, but a contract will always be enforceable if it contains certain requirements.
In the IT sector, internal and external relationships are often governed by legal or quasi-legal documents. In IT and ITSM, the terms "Master Service Agreement" and "Service Level Agreement" are often used interchangeably.
Both MSAs and SOWs are used in regulating the relationship between parties in a service contract. In a typical service transaction, you'll need to draw up both an MSA and an SOW. Both documents help parties to define the rights and obligations they have to each other.
An SOW is usually created under the framework of an MSA. While the MSA sets the general terms and conditions for the overall relationship, the SOW focuses on the particulars of a single project.
