Service scope contract
The visible boundary before a quote
This page is a scoping guide. The written quote controls the actual engagement.
What you send
The source files, destination format, field rules, examples, and known edge cases.
What NBW delivers
A cleaned file, documented assumptions, flagged exceptions, and a QA summary.
Prerequisites
- A safely shareable source file or protected working copy
- Examples of the desired field, format, and naming rules
- A decision owner for ambiguous rows or formulas
Engagement fit
A bounded file is usually a Quick Task. Multiple sources, dependent transformations, or a staged migration become a Defined Project.
Quote drivers
Row and tab count, source condition, transformation rules, formula complexity, exception volume, and final-file requirements.
Decline or partner rule
NBW declines work when permitted use or source truth is unclear, the transfer method is unsafe, or the request requires audited financial or compliance assurance.
What you send
The working inputs
The source files, destination format, field rules, examples, and known edge cases.
What comes back
The handback
A cleaned file, documented assumptions, flagged exceptions, and a QA summary.
Inside the quote
Included
- Source and destination review
- Agreed field, format, and naming rules
- Cleanup or entry in a protected working copy
- Duplicate and exception flags
- A QA summary and editable final file
Visible boundaries
Not silently included
- Audited accounting or financial assurance
- Statistical validation or source-truth certification
- Unapproved destructive edits
- Sensitive-data handling without an agreed safe method

Human QA
Technology can accelerate the work. A person owns the check.
A human spot-checks the output against source examples, validates formulas or formats in scope, and surfaces ambiguous rows.
- Escalation rule
- Advanced modeling, database work, compliance questions, or high-risk sensitive data are separated before acceptance.
- Decline rule
- The work is declined if the source or permitted use is unclear or a safe transfer method is unavailable.
- Capacity rule
- Rows, tabs, transformations, and active-file limits are counted before the fixed quote is approved.
Quote-first pricing
What shapes the written quote
A service label is only the starting point. The real inputs below determine the responsible boundary.
- 01Deliverable
The size, complexity, and number of outputs that must come back finished.
- 02Inputs
The condition, completeness, and organization of the material provided.
- 03Systems
The tools, accounts, permissions, and risk controls involved.
- 04Sequence
The timing posture, dependencies, milestones, and coordination required.
- 05Handback
The review, revision, documentation, and transfer requirements.
NBW scopes the work, sends a fixed quote, and begins only after you Approve.
Engagement progression
Start with the smallest honest shape
The work can graduate when its real coordination needs change—not because a larger package is being pushed.
- 01
Quick Task
One bounded deliverable, quoted before work begins, with one included revision pass where appropriate.
Use this whenOne bounded output with ready inputs.
- 02
Defined Project
A written scope for multi-step work, with agreed inputs, exclusions, milestones, and change handling.
This becomes a Defined Project whenMultiple dependent steps, systems, owners, or milestones.
- 03
Ongoing Support Desk
A capacity-honest monthly relationship with a maintained queue and a clear delivery summary.
A Desk is usually the better fit whenRepeated work benefits from retained context and a prioritized queue.
