Contract Creation And Management Simulation
...Introduction
The authors of this paper will present the layout and actual contract made between two parties. One party represents the company who will be designing the software and the other party represents the company who needs the software. Several types of contracts exist; therefore, understanding the importance of keeping ones word; knowing how to write up a contract and making necessary changes; and understanding the law are some important elements individuals/businesses need to know before entering into a contract.

Span and Citizen-Schwartz have entered into a contract, which both parties have made promises and have agreed upon. The following are basic concepts, which will guide both parties in developing a contract: 1) Contract law in private enterprise; 2) Sources of contract law; 3) Contractual classifications; 4) Contractual enforcement terminology; 5) Contractual performance terminology; 6) Breach of contract; 7) Offer to contract; 8) Acceptance of contract; 9) Consideration; 10) Capacity of parties to contract; 11) Lawful purpose; 12) Written contracts; 13) Interpretation of contracts; 14) Assignment of contracts; 15) Contracts benefiting a third party; 16) Performance of contracts; 17) Discharge of contracts; 18) Trends in contract law and 19) Contractual ethics, (Reed, O., & Shedd, P., & Morehead, J., & Corley, R., 2005).
