Scope of Work
Define exact services (number of views, resolution, file types, color profiles) and any excluded items to avoid scope creep and uncharged work.
A clear agreement reduces disputes over ownership, scope creep, and payment. It documents intent, consent, attribution, and retention so the parties can rely on ESIGN (15 U.S.C. ch. 96) and UETA where electronic execution is used; it also frames obligations related to permits, licenses, and third‑party uses.
Signatories should include the party that pays, the party that delivers, and any rights-holder designated to receive licensed usage.
Define exact services (number of views, resolution, file types, color profiles) and any excluded items to avoid scope creep and uncharged work.
List file formats, sizes, deliverable counts, and delivery method (e.g., layered PSD, high-res JPEG, or print-ready PDF) plus acceptance criteria for each item.
Specify whether copyright is assigned or a license is granted, and include any transfer of moral rights or retained portfolio rights by the designer.
Describe permitted uses (marketing, bidding, permits, resale) including geography, duration, exclusivity, sublicensing, and any media-based restrictions.
Set the number of included revision rounds, approval timelines, and how additional changes are billed to prevent scope disputes and missed deadlines.
State total fee, payment schedule, late fees, retainers, and whether deliverables are withheld pending final payment to secure performance and cash flow.
