Detailed scope: Project-specific

In a project-specific contract, the detailed scope of work provides the basis for the consultant's cost proposal and for the negotiations between the State and the consultant.

		Projects	Tasks
Project/task-order based	Scope of Work	x
	State’s Estimate	x

Project-specific	Scope of Work		x
	State’s Estimate		x

The detailed scope of work (SOW), as negotiated with the consultant, becomes a part of the final contract. The scope of work must include a list of the products or services that the consultant must deliver and a milestone schedule that describes when the consultant must deliver them.
