Your project brief
Start with the problem.
Work through the detail.
Choose BPO or software, then fill in what you know. You can edit, copy or download the brief, or choose to carry it into an enquiry. Nothing is sent by this builder.
Leave unknowns open.
Use your own words.
Review before you send.
Not sure where to start? Find a useful first scope
Choose the closest problem. This is a starting suggestion you can change, not a quote or a commitment.
Start with one support queue.
A defined channel and handling guide give us a practical place to begin.

Describe the work.
Leave room for questions.
You do not need a finished specification. A brief helps us understand the starting point and prepare the right questions. BPO and software can be discussed separately, and there is no minimum engagement size.
- 01
Explain what happens today
For BPO, describe the queue or task, approximate workload, channels, languages and time zones you need covered. For software, name the users, the task they need to complete and the tools they use now. Estimates and unknowns are useful when clearly labelled.
- 02
Choose a result you can review
Say what the first scope should produce: checked records, a documented handoff, a working customer journey or a connection between systems. Include approval limits and exclusions. A focused first scope is easier to assess than an open-ended request to improve everything.
- 03
Make the next decisions visible
Add any budget context, important date and reason it matters. Name the person who can answer questions or approve work. Scope, cost, availability and delivery timing still need review and agreement; this builder does not calculate a quote or reserve a team.
Use business context rather than customer records, passwords or confidential account details. Copying and downloading keep you in control of the brief. Choosing the enquiry option carries it within this browser tab to an editable form; sending that form is a separate action.
