What is a MLA?

What are MOUs?

MOU—An MOU (memorandum of understanding) documents the intentions of two or more parties to enter into a binding agreement, or contract, and is sometimes used between an informal handshake and the legally binding signatures on contracts. The MOU can be helpful in pushing along contract negotiations and in defining specific concerns of each party, but it is usually not a legally binding document, does not grant extensive rights to either party, provides no legal recourse, and is not intended to provide thorough coverage of the agreement to come.

What is RFP?

RFP—An RFP (request for proposal) is a request to vendors to submit a proposal for a product or service your company wants to purchase. Key parts of an RFP include why your company requires the product or service, how the product or service will be used, how and when the proposals will be evaluated, and a list of items a vendor should include in its proposal (for example, a detailed description of its product or service, technical support, user training, and initial and ongoing costs).

Details specified might include contract duration (minimum or maximum), guaranteed uptime, problem management, performance benchmarks, and termination options. West, Jill.

What is SOW?

SOW—An SOW (statement of work) documents in detail the work that must be completed for a particular project, and includes specifics such as tasks, deliverables, standards, payment schedule, and work timeline.
