These are review headings, not default contract terms. Fixed availability, response, damages, liability, price, payment, escalation, qualification, term and cure values must be supported and agreed for the project.
1. Asset and service boundary
List the plant, equipment, site areas, interfaces and excluded work. Separate module supply, EPC defects, grid matters, security, vegetation, cleaning and specialist services rather than assuming one party owns every task.
2. Baseline and handover evidence
Identify accepted drawings, asset register, commissioning records, manuals, serial data, warranties, open defects, software access and the condition at service start. Record how later changes are controlled.
3. Monitoring and data governance
Define sensors, data quality, access rights, retention, alarms, analysis, reporting and system administration. A monitoring standard can guide measurement; it does not create a commercial performance promise.
4. Planned and corrective maintenance
Build the task plan from equipment instructions, system design, site conditions, failure history, warranty duties and applicable rules. State who approves work and how records, tools, spares and changes are managed.
5. Events, escalation and decision rights
Classify events, notification routes, access, investigation, temporary controls, restoration authority and closeout evidence. Agree project-specific response and cure mechanisms instead of copying public time values.
6. Performance mechanism
If the parties use availability, energy, performance ratio or another KPI, define the calculation, data hierarchy, baseline, exclusions, degradation treatment, weather treatment, disputes and consequences in the accepted contract.
7. Warranty, insurance and spares interfaces
Map notice duties, evidence, access, replacement authority, labour, freight, customs, storage, ownership and recovery between the owner, O&M contractor, EPC, supplier, warrantor and insurer.
8. Safety, people and legal framework
Define site control, hazards, permits, competence, subcontracting, emergency planning, environmental duties and incident records under the project jurisdiction. Governing law and professional review remain project-specific.
