Document background
This Long Term Supplier Agreement template is designed for use in establishing strategic supply relationships under Australian law where parties anticipate an ongoing commercial relationship requiring detailed governance and operational frameworks. It is particularly suitable for arrangements involving regular or continuous supply of goods or services, significant commercial value, or critical business operations. The agreement incorporates key requirements under Australian legislation including the Competition and Consumer Act 2010, various state-based security of payment acts, and industry-specific regulations. It provides comprehensive coverage of commercial, operational, and risk management aspects while maintaining flexibility for relationship evolution. The document structure supports both straightforward supply arrangements and complex service delivery models, with optional provisions and schedules that can be adapted based on specific requirements.
