How to write a construction scope of work

The scope of work is the contract's spine. Describe exactly what you're delivering, what you're not, and how the owner will know it's done — before anyone signs.

Sections a scope of work should include

Project overview and objectives
Detailed deliverables by phase
Explicit exclusions
Milestones with dates
Acceptance criteria per deliverable
Assumptions and dependencies
Change control process
