Is It Out of Scope? — Web design
Is creating a quarterly business review deck out of scope for a web design project?
Yes. Presentation-deck creation has no connection to a fixed-scope design project's deliverables.
This request is rare on a fixed-scope design project, usually surfacing when a client wants to present the finished design work internally and assumes the deck comes with it.
Is it out of scope?
Yes. Assembling a presentation deck summarizing progress or results is its own deliverable, unrelated to the design files and assets the project was scoped to produce.

Example contract wording
Example contract wording (illustrative, not legal advice)
A review deck summarizing the work isn't part of what we scoped — I'm glad to share the final files and a short written summary, but building a formal presentation is outside this project.
How MarginFlow flags it
MarginFlow flags presentation-deck requests outside_scope on design contracts, since they fall outside every deliverable category a design SOW typically covers.
