What you approve before we start.

This is a fictional example to show the format. Your scope would use your workflow, your numbers and your constraints.

Scope · Example Mechanical Services LLC (fictional) · Lead + delivery

1. Problem

Quotes for replacement systems take 3–5 business days after the site visit. Office staff re-key technician notes into the quoting tool, and roughly a third of quotes get no follow-up after sending.

2. Baseline (measured in days 1–30)

  • Median hours from site visit to quote sent
  • Staff minutes per quote
  • Share of open quotes with a follow-up within 3 days
  • Quote-to-job conversion rate over the prior 6 months

3. Pilot

Technician notes captured in a structured form in the existing field service software. A draft quote is prepared from the approved price book. A coordinator reviews and sends. Follow-ups are scheduled automatically and stop when the customer replies.

4. Acceptance criteria

  • Median time to quote under 24 hours for standard replacements
  • No quote sent without coordinator review
  • Correction rate on drafts tracked weekly; under 15% by day 75
  • Follow-up within 3 days on at least 90% of open quotes

5. Out of scope

  • Changes to pricing or the price book itself
  • Commercial and new-construction bids
  • Replacing the field service software

6. People and approvals

Sponsor: operations manager. Daily users: two coordinators. Prices and discounts are always approved by a person.

7. Data handling

Access through named user accounts only. Customer data stays in the existing systems. No customer data is used to train third-party models.

8. Fees

Lead + delivery, $5,000/month for 90 days. Estimated tool costs (client pays vendors directly): under $150/month. Any custom integration beyond the above is quoted separately before work starts.

Illustrative only. Targets in a real scope are set after the baseline is measured, not before.
