Consulting / Professional Services – The Art of Writing an SOW
The Challenge
The Statement of Work (SOW) sets the foundation for the scope, financial terms (price, payment terms, etc.) and delivery terms for your project. SOWs with incomplete or inaccurate details can often result in tension and conflict within delivery teams, contribute to unsatisfied customers, and possibly introduce potential legal and/or financial risks. Poorly written SOWs, containing inexplicit terms and ambiguous scope, set a project up to fail.
The Solution
SOWs require a strong process for development, approval and governance. The SOW writing course will provide your team with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to write full scope, detailed SOWs and ensure more successful project delivery. Curriculum highlights include:
