A construction scope of work is a written document that lists the type of construction that is expected of the contractors, the supplies that are required in order to complete the work and the details of the construction itself. Documents in a construction scope include a blueprint, the supply list and a copy of the original contract. If there are several contractors involved, it is usually
. necessary to use several templates that outline the description of work for which every contractor is responsible, as well as the scope of overall work done on the site. It is time and cost-sensitive as well.The top of a scope of work form has the name of the project, the date it was written and the name of the individual who wrote it. In addition, it lists every item one by one, their quantities and units as well as their prices. A scope of work is very specific about the amount of money due to its contractors as well as the time it is expected to take. In the event of a dispute, these documents are necessary in case the contractors fail to supply the work in the given time or if they fail to provide any of the materials. A client may need this to prove breach of contract in a court of law, while a contractor could use this to prove his own side in such a dispute. If a contractor lets his work out to subcontractors, he must have written specifications that he can give to those subcontractors so they can know what is expected of them.A scope of work form is available online as a PDF download file; these forms are useful for virtually any type of building whether it is commercial or residential. It is easy to print out new ones after signing new building contracts.
