A scope discussion identifies deliverables and exclusions before the team agrees on a plan.
The idea
Use 範囲を確認できますか to open the discussion. 範囲外 marks an exclusion; ~する場合は introduces a condition, followed by its consequence. 優先していただけますか politely asks the other person to prioritize.
Examples
- まず、このプロジェクトの範囲を確認できますか。First, could we confirm the scope of this project?
- 現在の見積もりには、設計とテストが含まれています。The current estimate includes design and testing.
- 納品後の保守は、範囲外です。Maintenance after delivery is outside the scope.
- この機能を追加する場合は、納期の見直しが必要です。If we add this feature, we will need to review the deadline.
- まず必須の機能を優先していただけますか。Could we prioritize the essential features first?
- 合意した範囲を、書面にまとめます。I will summarize the agreed scope in writing.

No Japanese device voice is available. You can still read the text and use the linked listening resources.
Watch out
An estimate including design and testing does not automatically include maintenance. Name exclusions and confirm any change to the deadline before treating them as agreed.
