- Project Description: A part of the freelance design contract should include a description of what specific services you are providing and the specifications of the final project to be delivered. The details may be included as part of the detailed estimate (described under Project Costs).
- Completion Date: As a minimum the contract should stipulate the estimated completion date. You may also include interim production stages. This section would also describe circumstances and liability in the event the schedule must change.
- Events that Affect Delivery: Some events beyond control of the designer include delays by the client in signing off on proofs, changes (Author's Alterations) made in the content (other than mistakes by the designer), delays caused by the printer or other third parties out of the control of the designer, and other unforeseen catastrophic events.
