[New] Contract Face Sheets and General Terms and Conditions
A new set of consolidated and simplified corporate contract templates for the procurement of goods and services have been provided for the following four categories: 1. Contract Face Sheet (Goods and/or Services) for goods/services for/to UNDP; 2. Contract Face Sheet (Goods and/or Services) for goods/services for/to UN Entities (when UNDP is procuring services/good and signing the contract on behalf of another UN Entity); 3. General Terms and Conditions (for Goods and/or Services); and 4. General Terms and Conditions for de minimis contracts (Services only). The new templates replaced the Contract for Professional Services, Institutional Contracts, and Long-Term Agreements (LTAs) but they do not replace the Individual Contract, Purchase Orders, or Contracts for Civil Works. LTAs are now incorporated into the Contract Face Sheet. EXPAND
