Project Scoping Document

Define Before
You Build.

Our Project Scoping Document (PSD) captures everything — objectives, user journeys, integrations, data sources, and acceptance criteria — so your AI system is built right the first time.

Why Scoping

Remove the
Guesswork

Most AI projects fail because requirements are vague. "We need a chatbot" is not a spec. The PSD forces clarity — what the system should do, who it serves, what it connects to, and how success is measured. It becomes the single source of truth for design, development, and deployment.

01

Alignment

Everyone — client, strategist, engineer — works from the same document. No surprises.

02

Accuracy

Quotes and timelines are based on actual requirements, not assumptions.

03

Accountability

Acceptance criteria are defined upfront. Delivery is measured against the PSD.

The Process

11 Steps to a Production-Ready Spec

Step 01

Project Overview

Client context, problem statement, and expected business outcome.

Step 02

Objectives & KPIs

Measurable goals with success criteria and target metrics.

Step 03

Scope of Work

Modules, capabilities, and channels the AI system will cover.

Step 04

User Journeys

Step-by-step flows for each user type, with diagram upload support.

Step 05

Integrations

Systems to connect — CRM, ERP, helpdesk, databases, APIs.

Step 06

Data & Knowledge

RAG sources, knowledge bases, and data pipelines the agent needs.

Step 07

Technical Architecture

LLM, automation platform, AI framework, vector DB, and channels.

Step 08

Assumptions

Dependencies, constraints, and prerequisites that affect delivery.

Step 09

Out of Scope

Explicit boundaries to prevent scope creep and misaligned expectations.

Step 10

Acceptance Criteria

What "done" looks like — testable conditions for sign-off.

Step 11

Review & Submit

Full summary, export to Excel, and auto-email to the delivery team.
