Statement of Work

SOW #: [Number] Date: [Date]

This Statement of Work is issued under the Client Services Agreement dated [Date] between [Your Name / Company] ("Provider") and [Client Name / Company] ("Client"). If this SOW conflicts with the master agreement, this SOW wins for this project only.

1. Project name

[Short, recognizable project name]

2. What Provider will deliver

#DeliverableDescriptionDue
1[Deliverable][What "done" looks like, specifically][Date]
2[Deliverable][What "done" looks like, specifically][Date]
3[Deliverable][What "done" looks like, specifically][Date]

3. What is NOT included

Listing exclusions prevents most disputes. Out of scope for this SOW:

  • [e.g., "Copywriting — Client supplies all final text"]
  • [e.g., "Logo design or brand identity work"]
  • [e.g., "Ongoing maintenance after launch"]

4. What Client must provide (and when)

ItemNeeded by
[e.g., "Brand assets: logo files, fonts, colors"][Date]
[e.g., "Final copy for all pages"][Date]
[e.g., "Single point of contact for approvals"]At kickoff

If Client items arrive late, every project date after them moves by the same number of days.
