Silicon Valley Business Law Blog’s Kristie Prinz recently sat down for an interview with Beau Fernald, Fractional COO and Principal of Aware Insights LLC to discuss the topic of software implementation–a subject which is responsible for many business contract disputes across the software and digital health industries. Why does software implementation cause so many business disputes? One of the most common contract drafting mistakes businesses make in the software and digital health industries is failing to sufficiently define the parties’ mutual expectations for a software implementation. Most digital health and software contracts, in fact, are completely silent on the issue, regardless of the time, financial or other requirements of the implementation, which may be extensive. While Beau is not a business contracts lawyer and brings a different operational perspective to the issue of software implementation, he offers some additional insight on software implementation mistakes that SaaS, software, and digital health companies make, the consequences of those mistakes, and best practices on how to avoid them altogether. Beau strongly agrees the contention that software implementation understandings need to be articulated and memorialized in a writing to avoid subsequent misunderstandings that may result in a legal dispute.

I am excited to announce that my firm is adopting a number of new options for working with our clients. We received feedback asking for new fixed rate and subscription packages for specific business scenarios, and in response to that feedback we have designed a variety of new packages designed around those requests. These options are available for viewing upon request. Existing clients who are working with us already under another billing arrangement will be able to switch to a new plan at any time upon request. I am confident that these new options will address new business needs of the technology and life sciences communities we serve. If you have an idea for a billing arrangement that the firm has not yet developed, we invite you to submit your ideas for consideration at kprinz@prinzlawoffice.com.

Special: Free Viewing Click here to view If your small business is not in the life sciences or high technology industry, then you may think that your company has no intellectual property that you should be concerned about. However, the reality is that most small businesses today have intellectual property, regardless of the industry that they are in. This program was created to educate small businesses on what types of intellectual property they may have in their business and some of the issues that they need to be aware of. Program highlights include explaining what constitutes a copyrightable work, common copyright issues that arise for small businesses, how to ensure that you own the rights in design materials that you have developed, and how to protect your business ideas and plans. The program is primarily intended for business owners who have a “low tech” business and are not regularly dealing with intellectual property issues in their company, so no prior knowledge of intellectual property is assumed.

The speaker for this event is Kristie Prinz, the Managing Principal of the intellectual property and e-commerce boutique law firm, The Prinz Law Office, located in Silicon Valley, CA, who has extensive experience in working with entrepreneurs, start-up companies, and small businesses in the Silicon Valley.
