Understanding the key components of any project is critical if one is to ensure a successful outcome rather than a project that is riddled with needless delays, misunderstandings, and costly rework charges. An effective Scope of Work (SOW) is often the sole document that is relevant in preventing issues that can wreak havoc on a typical project. Lost time, replacement costs, scope creep, rate variances, division of labor, and a myriad of other issues can compound themselves until the contractor, owner and the vendor are conflicted on the schedule and costs. The result is frustration and ill will against others on the project, resulting in a dysfunctional work group. In the end, costly litigation might be the only way to deal with the matter.
