Scope a service and record its evidence

Three worksheets created for the journal’s methods. Each CSV contains a blank row and three clearly fictional examples: replace them with evidence from your own project. Define the scope, owner and acceptance checks before pricing an offer.

Leave unknown measurements blank. Price work using your actual costs; examining a link does not mean acquiring it, and a click is not a sale. You may adapt the worksheets under the MIT licence.
