Common elements of an SOW include: Project objectives. Project scope. Major deliverables. Tasks that support the deliverables, and which party will complete them. Timeline for completion of work. Location of work and resources, equipment, and facilities needed. Payment costs, terms, and deadlines.

The Statement of Work or requirements description should clearly describe the work to be carried out, the objectives to be attained and the time frame. It should be: explicit about the client's requirements and the contractor's responsibilities so that questions of interpretation can be avoided.

The SOW is typically written by the client, but authors may vary, and more than one author may participate. This may include anyone from the project manager to a third-party contractor to the Chief Information Officer in the case of IT and software development projects.

The statement of work is an all-encompassing, detailed document outlining the goals, purpose, guidelines, deliverables, time requirements, costs, etc. The scope of work is one section within the SoW describing in detail the projected outcomes of the project and the specifics about the job done to hit those outcomes.

A statement of work (SOW) is an important document that outlines the scope, timeline, and cost of a project between two parties – usually a customer and a supplier. Its purpose is to ensure all parties have a shared understanding of the expectations and responsibilities associated with the project.

Each project requires a unique SOW that outlines the specifics of that engagement. That said, almost all SOWs will include seven elements: the Scope of Work, deliverables, time and resources, payment terms, client services, changes, and terms and conditions.

Who writes the statement of work? Like most project management documents, SoWs are best written collaboratively. However, there are two main parties involved: the client or service provider and the company. SoWs need to be approved by two parties before work on your project really begins.

Pitfalls in Creating a Statement of Work If the work statement is too vague, too broad, or too generic, it can leave room for multiple interpretations. This can create misunderstandings later in a project.
