kundpremises

Kundpremises is a term used in contracting and service delivery to denote the physical location controlled by a customer where equipment, devices, or services are installed and operated. It distinguishes the customer’s site from the service provider’s facilities and is often referenced in agreements to define responsibilities, access rights, and liability.

The term is commonly used in telecom, managed services, and information technology projects. At kundpremises, components such as customer premises equipment (CPE), servers, network hardware, or edge devices may be installed and maintained. The concept also applies to other customer locations such as offices, data centers, or field sites where the provider’s services are delivered or supported on-site.

Responsibilities at kundpremises are typically allocated through service-level agreements and contracts. Customers usually bear responsibility for site security, power, cooling, and physical access controls; providers may be responsible for installation, configuration, ongoing maintenance, and remote management of equipment located at the customer site, as defined in the agreement. Data handling, privacy, and compliance considerations are often tied to the premises where data processing occurs.

Kundpremises is closely related to terms such as customer premises, on-premises, and customer premises equipment (CPE). It can influence risk allocation, maintenance regimes, and SLA metrics, and is often contrasted with provider premises or cloud-hosted solutions where equipment resides outside the customer’s facility. Understanding the concept helps clarify responsibilities and expectations in cross-organizational service arrangements.
