Contract Performance Security Clause Samples
The Contract Performance Security clause requires one party, typically the contractor or service provider, to provide a financial guarantee—such as a bond, letter of credit, or cash deposit—to assure the other party of their commitment to fulfill contractual obligations. This security is usually submitted before work begins and may be held until the contract is completed or certain milestones are met. Its core function is to protect the client or project owner from losses due to non-performance, delays, or default by the contractor, thereby allocating risk and incentivizing proper contract execution.
