A contract is a legally binding agreement in different forms like MSA, NDA, PSA etc which is executed between two or more parties that defines what to do (along with how to do and how not to do) and what not to do (along with exceptions). If a party fails to fulfill its obligations under a contract, the other party may have legal remedies, such as seeking damages or specific performance (compelling the breaching party to fulfill their contractual obligations).

Services agreements are frequently less formal and might include a wide range of terms and conditions. On the other hand, contracts are frequently more precise and necessitate specialised formalities.
