German term

Beigezogene

German to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Software contract terminology
Hi there,

has anyone got a neat term that could be used for "Beigezogene" which is used repeatedly in a software purchase/maintenance contract that I'm working on.

"Die Mitarbeitenden des Lieferanten, verbundene Unternehmen des Lieferanten, seine Unterbeauftragten und Subunternehmer sowie die Mitarbeitenden derselben werden in diesem Vertrag zusammengefasst «Beigezogene» genannt."

On a slightly separate note, would you all agree that "Unterbeauftragten und Subunternehmer" are the same thing? (i.e., Subcontractors) Or is there a subtle difference?

Thanks,

Alex

Hi Andrew None, of course, but the other suggestions presume a relationship that may or may not exist. God knows where and how they are connected, particularly the supplier's/distributor's subsidiary OR associated companies/businesses. There's just too many of them! But you also could put this down to AE or BE, and have a good weekend anyway.

Ramey In what sense are the principal parties contracting not 'involved'? Having said that, I often resort to the all-purpose verb 'involve' when the context is really fuzzy.
BrigitteHilgner Nov 29, 2014:
@ Ramey I've done what you suggested. Now I leave this forum and return to my kitchen to produce the first Christmas cookies. Have a nice weekend!
Ramey Rieger (X) Nov 29, 2014:
@Brigitte That would be my choice. You said it first, so would you post it?

consultants or consulted parties

dictionary definition for beiziehen (consult or call in as a consultant.

associates OR associated parties

associates OR associated parties [of the second party]

Whereas the past participle form 'beigezogen' can be used as an adjective in German and hence transformed into a noun form with capital letter and plural adjective ending, the same trick cannot be pulled with the corresponding English past participle 'associated'.

As I wrote in my comment to Ramey, your preferred solution suggests two categories of party: involved and uninvolved. I suppose the second group must therefore include the the two parties actually signing the agreement. Bizarre.
