This is a sample statement of work for a Project Data Aggregation Assessment:

Fred Cohen & Associates (FCA) will perform a Project Data Aggregation Assessment for Your Company (CLIENT) consisting of the following:

1) CLIENT will provide specific requirements to FCA on the information to be sought about a specific project during this study. The information sought will heretofore be called the OBJECTIVES.

2) FCA will use any and all legal means at its disposal to attain OBJECTIVES over a period of time and at a level of effort specified by CLIENT.

3) Within 21 days of the completion of the collection and correlation processes, FCA will provide a detailed review of progress toward OBJECTIVES for review by CLIENT in the form of a draft report consisting of:

• a one-page executive summary of the assessment
• a review of which OBJECTIVES were attained and the implications of what was found.
• an assessment of CLIENT's susceptibility to project data aggregation.
• actions that CLIENT should contemplate to improve its operations security in this and other projects.

4) At the completion of the draft report, an invoice will be provided to CLIENT for services rendered. If minor report revisions are required, they will be provided over a period of three months at no added cost. If an in-person executive briefing is desired, one will be provided at an additional cost of $2500 plus expenses.

This proposal is valid for a period of 45 days from the date provided. All payments are due within 15 days of invoice.

The level of effort specified for this study will be $40,000 plus reasonable and usual expenses and costs of the in-person executive briefing if so desired. Total costs of this study are not to exceed $55,000.
