What is a Statement of Work (SOW)? A statement of work (SOW) is a formal document that captures and defines the work activities, deliverables, and timeline a vendor must execute in performance of specified work for a client. The SOW usually includes detailed requirements and pricing, with standard regulatory and governance terms and conditions. It thus overlaps in concept with a contract, and in fact SOWs are often legally equivalent to contracts.deliverables contract Wikipedia Definition
