Delivery of Services
Services are performed in accordance with the defined scope, schedule, and milestones outlined in the Agreement. We apply reasonable professional care in delivering services.
Delivery timing may depend on the client’s timely provision of materials, feedback, and approvals.

Any services outside the agreed scope require written confirmation before work begins.

Unless otherwise agreed:
- Third-party costs are billed separately
- Approved expenses may be invoiced at actual cost
- Clients are responsible for applicable taxes associated with services
Payment Terms
Invoices are payable within five (5) calendar days unless otherwise agreed in writing. Billing may be based on project phases or milestones.
Failure to make payment may result in delayed delivery.
Scope Modifications
All requests for changes must be submitted in written form.
Minor adjustments that do not significantly affect schedule or pricing may be implemented without a contract amendment. Larger changes affecting cost, timing, or deliverables require a revised agreement.
Updated proposals should be confirmed within fourteen (14) working days.
Delays and Uncontrollable Events
If delays result from missing client input, approvals, or materials, timelines will be extended accordingly.
Events beyond reasonable operational control, including technical failures or external disruptions, may also affect timelines without constituting breach.

Clients agree to:
