Scope creep in web design

Manage extra revisions, pages, responsive states, assets and content changes in web-design projects.

Design scope expands through extra page templates, revision rounds, responsive states, asset production and late content changes. The request may be visually small while affecting an entire component system.

Set a clear baseline

Record page templates, breakpoints, supplied content, asset responsibilities and included revision rounds. Distinguish a revision from a new direction or deliverable.

Respond with options

Explain what remains included, describe the additional design work and offer a fee and timing option. This keeps the conversation useful instead of adversarial.
