delivery requirements
Definition
Delivery requirements are the specific rules in a contract that spell out exactly how, when, and where one party must hand over goods, documents, or services to the other party. These rules can cover everything from the deadline for delivery to the acceptable method of shipping to who pays for transportation.
Example
If you sign a contract to supply 500 custom mugs to a retail store, the delivery requirements might state that you must ship the mugs via FedEx ground service and have them arrive at the store's warehouse by the first of the month.
Watch Out
Missing a delivery requirement, even a small one like using the wrong shipping carrier, can put you in breach of contract and expose you to financial penalties.
