Open with the problem you are solving, not your preferred technology. What kind of user will use this, how many times a day, and what does the process look like without it? An estimator who knows what you are trying to achieve can propose a simpler way to reach it; someone handed only a list of screens will price the list as written.

Define what is included as concrete flows: a walk through each important path. Just as important, list what you are not building. An explicit list of exclusions saves more argument at delivery time than almost anything else in the document. Mark too which decisions are settled and which are still under discussion — honest teams price those differently, and pretending everything is fixed only hurts you.

Write down the hard constraints. These include existing systems the software has to talk to, the data you have and where it lives, compliance requirements, expected load, which devices matter and any technology you are committed to. Where a date is genuinely fixed, explain what drives it: a team can often cut the right scope to meet it, but only if they know it exists.

Write down what completion means feature by feature. Clear acceptance criteria need not use special syntax: machine learning development company a plain-language note describing what a user should be able to do will do. That one addition compresses acceptance testing by a surprising margin and closes off most late-stage disagreement.

One last thing, ask for a specific format. Request a task-level breakdown, the assumptions used, the risks the team sees and an optimistic difference between symfony and spring boot a pessimistic figure. Take a broad range as useful information rather than evasion: it normally identifies exactly which requirement is unclear. From there clarify that area and ask for a new estimate — the revised figure will be much more reliable.
