Frequency of SPG Cycles Clause Samples
The 'Frequency of SPG Cycles' clause defines how often SPG (Service Performance Guarantee) cycles occur within the context of an agreement. Typically, this clause will specify a set interval—such as monthly, quarterly, or annually—at which the service provider's performance is measured against agreed standards. For example, if the cycle is monthly, performance metrics are reviewed and reported every month. This clause ensures regular and consistent monitoring of service levels, allowing both parties to address issues promptly and maintain accountability throughout the contract term.
