What is a Facility Management Agreement?
A facility management agreement is a verbal or written agreement between a client and service provider that intends to provide facility services. The agreement specifically states what services are being procured, what the compensation rate for the work is, and how long the services are being procured for. This ensures that both parties understand their unique roles and responsibilties at the beginning of their business relationship.
The facility management agreement is also a great tool to use to determine the scope of a facility service project. There can also be provisions built in for one-off projects as well as payment schedules, fees, and more.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
