Change request form

A standardized template used to document a proposed scope change, including what's being added, its cost, and its impact on the timeline, before it's approved.

A standardized template used to document a proposed scope change, including what's being added, its cost, and its impact on the timeline, before it's approved.

Example

A one-page form with fields for: description of the change, estimated hours, price, revised delivery date, and a signature line — used every time a client asks for something outside the current SOW.

Why it matters for agencies

Having a standing template removes the friction of drafting a change order from scratch every time, which is often the real reason teams skip the process under deadline pressure. A ready-to-fill form turns "we should probably flag this" into a two-minute task instead of an afternoon one.
