Frequently asked questions

How can you get client buy-in for a consulting scope of work?

The best approach is to involve the client early in the drafting process. Present a clear, detailed scope, and invite their feedback to address any concerns. This collaboration builds trust and ensures the final document reflects their priorities and constraints.

How detailed should the timelines be in a consulting scope of work template?

Timelines should be as specific as possible, with clear start and end dates, milestones, and key deadlines. A detailed timeline gives both parties visibility into progress, helps manage expectations, and supports accountability if schedules change.

Who approves the consulting scope of work and what happens after approval?

Both the client and the consulting firm must review and formally approve the scope of work, usually with signatures. After approval, the project begins, using the signed scope as a reference point for all future discussions or changes.

What if the client asks for tasks outside the original consulting scope of work?

If the client requests additional tasks, discuss how these changes affect the original scope, timeline, and fees. Document any new agreements in writing, either as an addendum or a revised scope, to maintain alignment and avoid confusion down the line.
