In law, an agreement, upon sufficient consideration, to do or not to do a particular thing; the writing which contains the agreement of the parties and the terms and conditions and which serves as proof of the obligation. Types of contracts include (a) fixed-price contract, (b) cost reimbursement, (c) cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, and (d) sole-source contract.


To become smaller and tighter, or make a muscle or part of the body smaller and tighter.


To make a formal or legally binding agreement with someone to do something.


An agreement between two or more parties which gives legally enforceable rights and obligations to both. A contract need not be in writing to be enforceable, unless it is a certain kind of agreement, such as one for the sale of real estate. A state law called the “Statute of Frauds” specifies which contracts must be supported by written evidence.
