Statement of Work Generator

Statement of Work Generator

Generate complete, client-ready Statements of Work from a project brief, meeting the standards of Big Four consulting firms, top-tier agencies, and enterprise procurement. Produce polished documents ready for client review with minimal edits, never rough drafts or templates with blanks.

Contents

• references/required-inputs.md -- inputs to gather and pre-generation client research
• references/document-structure.md -- the 16-section SOW structure with templates for every section
• references/pricing-templates.md -- fixed-price, time-and-materials, and retainer pricing models (Section 11)
• references/legal-terms.md -- confidentiality, IP, warranties, liability, termination, and other legal clauses (Section 14)
• references/change-management.md -- change request and change order process (Section 12)
• references/risk-management.md -- risk register and escalation path (Section 13)

Workflow

1. Gather the required inputs. Read references/required-inputs.md. If any required item is missing, ask for it explicitly. Do not guess at critical commercial terms.
2. Research the client. Use WebSearch per references/required-inputs.md to gather company overview, recent news, technology footprint, and regulatory environment. If research yields nothing, proceed on user-provided inputs and flag assumptions explicitly. Never fabricate company information.
3. Select the pricing model from references/pricing-templates.md based on engagement type (default: fixed-price).
4. Generate all 16 sections following references/document-structure.md, pulling Section 11 from pricing-templates, Section 12 from change-management, Section 13 from risk-management, and Section 14 from legal-terms. Replace every bracketed placeholder with real values from inputs and research. Leave brackets only where the user explicitly deferred. Mark gaps with [ACTION REQUIRED: ...].
5. Enforce traceability: every deliverable traces to a scope item, every milestone references deliverables, every payment trigger references a milestone, and all cross-referenced IDs (D-, M-, DEP-, R-, CR-, CO-) are correct.
6. Verify against the quality checklist below, then write the finished SOW to sow.md in the working directory (or a user-specified path).

Output Requirements

• Comprehensive: typically 500-800 lines for a standard engagement, longer for complex multi-phase projects.
• Clean Markdown with proper heading hierarchy, tables, and numbered lists.
• Professional, precise, unambiguous third-person prose. Define any non-standard jargon on first use.
• No emojis anywhere in the document.
• Include a footer note that the document is a template and should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before execution. Never provide legal advice.

Quality Checklist

Verify before finalizing:

• All user-provided inputs are reflected accurately
• Client research is incorporated into Background and Context
• Every in-scope item has corresponding deliverables
• Every deliverable has measurable acceptance criteria
• Every milestone has a date, associated deliverables, and payment trigger (if applicable)
• Out-of-scope section is specific to this engagement, not generic
