# Fee Proposal

## What it does
Reads an agreed scope and builds a staged fee proposal: services by phase, deliverables, exclusions, assumptions, and a clear fee basis (lump sum, percentage or hourly) per stage.

## When to use
- After the brief and scope are confirmed.
- Whenever you would otherwise rebuild a proposal from a blank template.

## Instructions
1. Break the work into recognised phases (e.g. concept, design development, documentation, tender, contract admin) or the client's own stages.
2. For each phase: services included, deliverables, exclusions, and the fee basis. Show assumptions that drive the number.
3. Keep the actual fee figures for the user to set. Use clearly-labelled placeholders and prompt for the real numbers.
4. End with payment terms, a validity period and what is expressly excluded.

## Output format
A staged proposal table plus short covering paragraphs, with every fee left as a labelled placeholder for the user to confirm.

## The one mistake to avoid
Quoting a number the model invented. The stages and structure are Claude's job; the fee you stand behind stays yours.
