A service provider agreement, also known as a provision of services agreement, is a contract between at least two parties in which one party agrees to provide services in exchange for compensation. For example, a homeowner may execute a service provider agreement with a contractor for home repairs.

A SLA is not a contract. The SLA document should be seen as a list of targets, rather than a legal binding agreement. The parties should be aware that the SLA itself does not guarantee that the expected service levels will always be met or that penalties will be imposed if they are not met.
