SLOWDOWN Clause Samples
The SLOWDOWN clause defines the procedures and consequences when work on a project is intentionally reduced in pace, rather than stopped entirely. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which a party may request or enforce a slowdown, such as due to funding delays, changes in project scope, or external factors affecting progress. It may specify how work schedules, payments, and resource allocations are adjusted during the slowdown period. The core function of this clause is to provide a structured approach for managing reduced activity, minimizing disputes, and clarifying the rights and obligations of each party during periods of decreased productivity.
