Third-Party Testing Oversight Clause Samples

The Third-Party Testing Oversight clause establishes the requirement for an independent entity to monitor, review, or verify testing processes or results related to the contract. Typically, this clause applies when products, services, or systems must meet specific standards or regulatory requirements, and it mandates that a neutral third party conducts or supervises the necessary tests. By involving an external party, the clause ensures objectivity and credibility in the testing process, thereby reducing conflicts of interest and increasing trust in the results.
