+A contract is created whenever a customer orders some service from the
+system. It is always connected to a customer and a service.
+
+A contract is not necessarily written on paper and signed by
+people. Instead it is an abstraction used inside the system.
+
+It is always created from a service, which tells about the basic data,
+with additional parameters set that depend on the type of service
+ordered.
+
+Contracts can have contract additions.

 Service
 -------
+
+The system will provide different services to customers. These can
+have arbitrary forms, including one-time services (like installation
+of meters) and open-ended long-time services (like delivering power
+based on contract). Services are managable by staff like goods offered
+in a shop.
+
+Services define the conditions under which they can be ordered by
+customers, including prices, runtimes, etc.
+
+Services also serve as factories for contracts.
