Scope creep happens when extra features or changes are added to a website project that weren’t part of the original plan. This can make projects more complicated and lead to unexpected work.
Common examples of scope creep:
- Adding new pages or sections mid-project
- Requesting extra features like pop-ups or bookings after development has started
- Changing approved designs during the build
How we manage it at O’Brien Media:
- We clearly define the scope from the start
- We review and agree on any new requests with you
- We keep in regular contact so you’re always in the loop
