Reliability Run Clause Samples
The Reliability Run clause defines a period or process during which equipment or systems must operate continuously to demonstrate their reliability and performance before final acceptance. Typically, this involves running the equipment under normal operating conditions for a specified duration without significant failures or interruptions, and may require the contractor to address any issues that arise during this time. The core function of this clause is to ensure that the delivered equipment meets agreed-upon reliability standards, thereby reducing the risk of post-acceptance failures and ensuring the buyer receives a fully functional and dependable product.
