Penalty if not compliant
No regulatory penalty directly. Ambiguous or unsigned engagements create scope disputes, delayed payments, and make deliverables inadmissible as buyer diligence evidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this sprint agreement a substitute for legal advice?
No. The agreement explicitly states that deliverables are structured compliance evidence and implementation guidance, not a law-firm opinion or regulator guarantee. Final advice and sign-off must come from qualified counsel.
How is payment handled?
The engagement fee is paid in full via Stripe Payment Link before work commences. Payment Links are live for all three tiers: £2,500 (Readiness), £5,000 (Documentation), and £10,000 (Audit Pack).
What happens if the client needs more work after the sprint?
The agreement covers a fixed scope. Additional work beyond the agreed deliverables requires a new sprint or a separate statement of work. Most clients start with the Documentation Sprint at £5,000 and add an Audit Pack Sprint for £10,000 if they need board-ready evidence for multiple systems.
Can this template be used for non-UK clients?
The governing law clause defaults to England and Wales. For non-UK engagements, review the governing law, jurisdiction, and data-protection references with qualified counsel before use.
