Justee's statement of work review tool analyzes project scope documents for deliverable clarity, milestone adequacy, acceptance criteria fairness, and change management procedures. The AI identifies risks including vague deliverables, front-loaded payment schedules, subjective acceptance criteria, and missing change order processes. Justee provides suggested revisions based on project management best practices. Statements of work define specific project deliverables, timelines, and acceptance criteria. They often supplement master service agreements for individual projects. Common issues include ambiguous deliverables that lead to disputes, payment schedules that don't match work completion, and acceptance criteria that give clients unlimited revision rights.

Hypothetical Case Study by Justee

Justee recently analyzed a statement of work for a $150,000 development project for a web development agency in Philadelphia, PA building a custom e-commerce platform.

Issue Found: The acceptance criteria stated "website performs to Client's satisfaction," a completely subjective standard that let the client reject work indefinitely and withhold payment.

Justee Recommendation: We replaced subjective criteria with objective metrics: specific page load times, browser compatibility lists, and feature checklists, with automatic acceptance if no defects reported within 10 business days.

Subjective Acceptance Criteria

Problematic Language

"Deliverables shall be deemed accepted when Client confirms in writing that they meet Client's requirements and expectations."

Recommended Language

"Deliverables shall be deemed accepted when: (i) all items in the acceptance checklist (Exhibit A) are verified; (ii) no material defects are reported within 10 business days of delivery; or (iii) Client uses Deliverables in production. Client may not reject Deliverables for reasons outside the stated acceptance criteria."

Why it matters: Subjective acceptance criteria give clients unlimited power to reject work and withhold payment. Objective, measurable criteria protect both parties and reduce disputes.

No credit card required

"Justee is redefining the legal document compliance process across all practice areas, transforming hours of work into minutes, while reducing stress and boosting accuracy."

Statement of Work Review FAQ

Key elements include project scope, deliverables, timelines, milestones, acceptance criteria, assumptions, and change order procedures.

Specific and measurable. "Website redesign" is too vague; "5-page responsive website with CMS" is better.

Standards that deliverables must meet to be considered complete. Should be objective and measurable, not subjective.

Formal process for modifying scope, including cost and timeline impacts. Without this, scope changes create disputes.

Yes. Payments should align with deliverable completion to protect both parties. Front-loaded payments create risk.
