3. Project Engagements
Specific project scope, deliverables, assumptions, schedule, acceptance criteria, team composition and support arrangements will be documented in a proposal, statement of work or service agreement. Changes to an agreed scope may require revised timelines and fees.
Estimates depend on the information available at the time. Both parties will cooperate in good faith to resolve dependencies, delays and scope questions.
4. Fees, Invoices and Taxes
- Fees and payment milestones will be stated in the applicable proposal or agreement.
- Invoices must be paid by their stated due date unless otherwise agreed in writing.
- Late or outstanding payments may result in paused work or restricted access to deliverables.
