Meet Agreed Scope and Quality before Adding More

Meet agreed scope and quality before considering additional work. More tasks and completing the customer’s work are distinct outcomes.

Useful additions affect cost and timing. Check whether extra support is needed while preserving essential delivery.

Check Agreed Completion through Specific Tasks

GOV.UK’s user stories use acceptance criteria to assess completion. (GOV.UK: User stories) Record deliverables and the operations they support.

For page creation, check accurate prices, working links, readable content, and update ownership.

Assess Additional Support and Its Impact

For operating guidance, identify who will use it and for which revisions. Assess maintenance, cost, and timing before adding unrequested features.

Preserve Essential Delivery

Agree on additions separately, potentially scheduling them after required delivery.

Use Actual Support Outcomes in the Next Offer

Record whether additions were used and how enquiries changed. Review unused materials alongside useful outcomes without assuming increased trust.
