Selected
a substitute service provider at its own expense
It means roughly that if the term expires a negociated agreement must be reached otherwise a substitute service provider may be used at its own expense. (paid for by the breaching service provider)

French term (edited):
recourir à [un prestataire de substitution] à ses risques
have recourse, at his own risk, to a replacement service provider
I think you may be parsing it wrongly, which perhaps isn't helping your comprehension.
As I see it, the 'risks' refers to using an alternative service provider — but the main contractor still has to take responsibility for the results.
