Statement of Work
When delivery matters more than headcount, Statement of Work (SoW) is the model that keeps projects moving. Clients access Statement of Work services shaped by Morson Praxis-level consultancy expertise, combined with the pace and pragmatism of a talent business that knows how to really get work done.
This is not ‘body-shopping’. It is outcome-led delivery, built around your objectives and underpinned by proven governance.
Fixed scope. Clear accountability. Results you can bank on.
Complex programmes stall when accountability is blurred.
Clients come to us when they are facing:
- Delivery risk on critical engineering, infrastructure, or technology programmes
- Skills gaps that cannot be solved through individual hires
- Fixed timelines and budgets under scrutiny
- Internal teams stretched beyond capacity
- Increased regulatory, safety, or assurance requirements
Traditional recruitment cannot carry that risk, Statement of Work can.
Consultancy thinking. Talent execution. One accountable partner.

Why clients choose us
Consultancy-led design
Morson Praxis have over 40 years experience in delivering true statements of work. Every SoW engagement is shaped using Morson Praxis methodologies, ensuring scope, risk, and outcomes are locked in before delivery begins.
Outcome ownership & risk mitigation
We contract on delivery, not effort. Certainty of outcome, risk transfer, specialist delivery capability, robust assurance, IR35 compliance and robust governance come as standard. Accountability sits with us.
Built for complex sectors
From aerospace and defence to energy, power, infrastructure, and technology, our SoW models are proven in highly regulated, safety-critical environments.
Speed without compromise
We mobilise quickly without cutting corners, combining specialist talent with disciplined delivery frameworks.
What is a Statement of Work model and when should we use it?
A Statement of Work is a project delivery model where outcomes, milestones, timelines, and commercials are agreed upfront. It is the right choice when you need certainty of delivery, clear accountability, and reduced risk. If success is measured by results rather than headcount, SoW is usually the sharper option.
Traditional recruitment supplies individuals. Our SoW solution delivers outcomes.
We take ownership of scope, delivery, and performance using consultancy-led design and structured delivery teams. You contract for results, not effort, and we carry the delivery risk.
We are.
Morson Edge acts as the single point of accountability for delivery, governance, and reporting. You avoid fragmented ownership across suppliers and internal teams, while retaining full visibility of progress against agreed milestones.
Risk management is built into the model from day one.
Every SoW engagement includes defined governance frameworks, performance reporting, and assurance processes aligned to regulated and safety-critical environments. This ensures compliance, transparency, and control throughout delivery.
Yes.
While scope and outcomes are clearly defined, our SoW frameworks are designed to flex. We can adjust delivery models, resourcing levels, or work packages through controlled change, without losing momentum or clarity.
A Statement of Work engagement is structured around the delivery of defined services and outcomes, rather than the supply of an individual.
Under an SoW model, Morson is contracted to deliver a specific piece of work with agreed deliverables, milestones, and acceptance criteria. We retain control over how the services are delivered, including task allocation, management oversight, and the right to provide appropriate substitution within the delivery team where required.
This approach aligns with HMRC’s focus on factors such as control, personal service, and mutuality of obligation, supporting a business-to-business arrangement rather than a contract for labour. Robust governance and clear contractual documentation help demonstrate that the engagement is project-based and outcome-led, reducing the likelihood of IR35 risk exposure.
