Scoping by Marj

PROCESS:

My primary focus is to correct the transcript until it is as close to turn-in ready as possible.  All scoping is done in the latest version of Stenograph's Case CATalyst software.
​
Project Steps:
  1. Contact me to discuss the project scope and required turnaround time.  I will respond by return e-mail with a court reporter style preference sheet for your completion.
  2. Complete and submit style preference sheet via return e-mail.  This enables me to follow your specific style preferences.  I will confirm project delivery rate and turnaround time.
  3. Send project files.  Once project terms have been agreed upon, you can send your project files through various delivery software systems, i.e., for large audio files -- Dropbox and SendThisFile; for smaller, non-audio files -- regular e-mail.  Once all files have been received, turnaround time starts. A confirmation e-mail will be sent to confirm all final details.
  4. Electronic Scoping begins.  The project files are scoped electronically to correct misspelled/missing words, punctuation, paragraphing, and any untranslated stenography.  The final scoped files will also have any necessary or unresolved scanstops, carats, and conflicts flagged for your quick and easy final decision.  Note:  These flags are kept to a minimum in order to respect your final edit time.
  5. Scoped Files returned.  The final scoped files are transmitted back to the court reporter together with any necessary dictionary updates.
  6. Feedback.  Upon completion of the project, feedback would be greatly appreciated. ​

Note: Contact me for assistance with transmitting files.


​POLICIES:
For all scoping projects, please contact me with the page count and scope so that availability and costing can be agreed upon.
​
  • I invoice in the Wave app, and I can accept cards and bank transfers directly from the invoice.
  • Established clients  are invoiced on completion of project.  Payments are due within 15 days of invoicing.
  • First-time clients and one-off jobs will be billed immediately upon completion.  Invoices are due and payable on receipt.
  • Client referrals will get a discount of $0.10 per page off their next project.  This will be applied once the new client's project is completed.

NOTE: If an account balance is not in good standing, I reserve the right to pause further services and charge late fees on outstanding amounts as set out on invoice.
