What is Pricing assumptions?

Pricing assumptions are the facts about scope, timing, access and client input that your quoted price depends on, and that change the price when they turn out false.

Why it matters

A price can only reflect the conditions used to prepare it. If access arrives late, source files are incomplete or the volume changes, the original effort may no longer match. Written assumptions show the client which facts shaped your quote.

How to use it

  1. List the client inputs your estimate depends on.
  2. Record the expected volume, format and level of complexity.
  3. State the access and response times needed for delivery.
  4. Ask the client to correct any assumption that is wrong.
