Statement of Work, Change Request and Project Sign-Off Forms
About this document
A statement of work turns a vague brief into a clear, agreed project. It defines exactly what is included and excluded, when things happen, how work is approved and how much it costs. Combined with a change request form and a sign-off form, it is the most effective protection against scope creep and payment disputes.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
A complete, ready-to-use document with every section written, your details shown in [square brackets], and guidance notes explaining how to complete it.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
