We’re happy to tell that today Acne, B-Reel, North Kingdom, Perfect Fools and Unit9 together took another step towards making life easier for digital producers on agencies and production companies. How? By adding a boiler plate master service agreement to stndrd.org, the open source approach to digital creative production.

In the spirit of Swedish collectiveness we have used united experiences and best practices to put together a basic MSA – Master Service Agreement – to be used as is, or paragraph by paragraph to add to a conflicting contract. Or to be used as a boiler plate to add to.

Basic thought is, as for stndrd.org in general, to make processes between vendors and clients in the digital world easier by building de facto standards in an open source environment.

The 6 page contract and easy-reader notes are easily accessible at http://www.stndrd.org.
