Description
Description: This studio provides a practical method to define scope, write statements of work, and handle changes calmly. You will identify outcomes, constraints, and assumptions before listing tasks, so scope reflects reality. You will draft deliverables with measurable acceptance tests and versioning rules. You will choose pricing models—fixed, time-and-materials, or milestone—and know when each one fits. You will include a small set of legal terms that are readable and preserve flexibility. You will implement a change request workflow with impact analysis and a friendly script for clients. You will add a risk register that captures early warning signs and owners. You will learn to reference the SOW in status updates so alignment remains visible. You will keep an amendments log that survives staff turnover. You will close engagements with a signoff that triggers final invoicing and optional maintenance. You will leave with SOW and change templates that reduce debate and protect margins.
Format: Scope definition canvas, SOW templates (Docs), pricing model guide, change request workflow, risk register, and amendment log (Sheets).
Duration: 2–3 hours to complete initial drafts; reuse for future engagements.
What You’ll Learn: Outcome-first scoping; acceptance tests; pricing models; readable legal terms; change control; risk and amendment discipline.
Target Audience: Owners and project leads who need firm but flexible agreements that clients understand.
