Media-savvy content creator, with a curiosity for all Salesforce experiences.
It’s a formal, non-legally binding agreement between two or more entities. Within a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement, one can find the following information:
According to MasterClass, up to 60% of private-sector businesses create MOU agreements in the partnership negotiation phase. This makes sense to us since MOU agreements provide precise details of each party’s responsibilities and what they can expect from the partnership. Only when everyone is happy can the partnership move forward to create a legally binding contract.
Keep reading if you want to know more about an MOU agreement and how to generate documents seamlessly from Salesforce. We dive deeper into these interesting topics below.
We have already defined an MOU agreement, but what is the purpose of creating these documents? Essentially, they are designed to formally explain that parties want to work together. MOU agreements are drawn up to provide all parties with clear information regarding:
It works best as a roadmap to guide all parties in a partnership in achieving a project’s goals. An MOU agreement offers great flexibility, as either party can renegotiate terms and conditions before signing a formal contract.
As MOU agreements are used in many sectors, like business, technology, and international relations, they should describe in detail the partnership that parties will enter before drafting a formal, legally binding contract. Here are the key parts that need to be added to an MOU agreement:
MOU agreements often appear in tech, pharmaceutical, or any partnership that wants to enter a long-term project that requires collaboration because they provide clear communication and direction to all parties. Here are a few more pros of drafting an MOU agreement:
Although MOU agreements set a good foundation for a partnership, they need additional information to solidify the business arrangement. Here are a few cons you might encounter from only working with MOU agreements:
Before creating an MOU agreement, the parties wanting to collaborate on a joint project will meet to discuss their intentions. At the meeting, each of the parties will identify their goals, resources, and expected outcomes.
These gatherings are a “must” for creating trust between the partners. They also allow everyone to collaborate on the vision and future of the relationship.
Once everyone is aligned and is on the same page, an MOU agreement can be drawn up. Here is an example of a common MOU agreement used in the real world:
That’s a wrap on our article about MOU agreements. We learned that even though these documents are not legally binding, they represent a serious commitment from parties to collaborate on a project.

No, it is not.
MOU stands for Memorandum of Understanding, whereas MOA stands for Memorandum of Agreement. These two documents are similar, but they have differences. For example, an MOU is a non-binding document. It will state that two or more parties want to work together on a venture, but there are no legal obligations for any of them to do so. You might have heard the term “gentleman’s agreement,” which is considered a type of MOU agreement.
On the other hand, an MOA is a formal, binding document. It contains the roles, responsibilities, and legal obligations of all the parties involved in the agreement. However, this document, like an MOU agreement, is also used before formal contracts are drawn up and signed in a business partnership.
Yes.
You need to formally communicate with the other parties in the MOU agreement that this is your intention. We suggest you also check the termination clause typically found in an MOU agreement. It will direct you on how to end the contract.
Keep in mind that you might have to give the other party members specific terms or notice periods before voiding the agreement.
Yes, they can. Some automatically end when a project is completed or a specific period has passed. However, MOU agreements typically have an expiration date stated in the contract. Make sure to check these details.
You will need both parties in the agreement to formally write, sign, and date an announcement that the MOU will be modified.
