The Subconsultant Agreement is essential in professional service arrangements where specialized expertise or additional resources are required to fulfill project obligations. This document, governed by South African law, is typically used when a main consultant needs to engage additional professional support while maintaining control over the primary client relationship. The agreement ensures clear delineation of roles, responsibilities, and obligations while protecting intellectual property and confidential information. It incorporates requirements from various South African legislative frameworks including the Companies Act, Labour Relations Act, and professional body regulations. The document is particularly crucial for complex projects requiring multiple areas of expertise or when scaling service delivery capacity.
