ITPEC IP April 2022 — Question 57 of 100

At contract signing, the customer and vendor should agree in writing on deliverables and the procedure for specification changes. Clear contractual definitions establish responsibilities, acceptance expectations, and how later changes will be requested, assessed, approved, priced, and scheduled. This is particularly important when an overseas vendor is involved.

Answer (d)

Why not others:
- (a) cannot unilaterally impose work outside the contract after acceptance

- (b) omitting intellectual-property provisions creates ownership and usage risks

- (c) scope, specifications, and work content should be agreed before development starts, not afterward

Key rule: Procurement terms should define scope, deliverables, rights, acceptance, and change control in writing before contracted work begins.
