Scope completion
Completing an unfinished project requires balancing existing architectural patterns with clean refactoring rather than impulsively rewriting working modules.
Compare the original specification against current codebase deliverables to identify exact missing items.
Fix critical runtime bugs, broken endpoints, and dependency vulnerabilities.
Complete user journeys, implement automated tests, and deploy to production.
Projects stall at roughly the same place: the visible features are built and the invisible ones are not. What remains is error handling, edge cases, permissions, email delivery, payment failure states, and everything that only matters when real people use the thing.
This is why a project that looks nearly finished can need another two months. It is also why the previous developer's estimate of 'about a week left' was sincere and wrong.
The single most useful thing you can do before hiring is write down what has to be true for the project to be done. Not features — conditions.
There is a strong pull, once new eyes are on the project, to also fix the things that were always slightly wrong and add the features that were cut. It feels efficient because the developer is already in there.
It is the most common way a rescue turns into a second stalled project. Finish the original scope, ship it, and treat everything else as a separate phase with its own decision.
A half-finished project has no users, so nobody knows which of the remaining work actually matters. Whenever the shape of the product allows it, put the working part in front of a small number of real customers before finishing the rest.
Feedback reorders the backlog more accurately than any planning session, and it often reveals that a third of the outstanding work was never needed.
Usually not. The visible features get built first and the invisible ones last, so a project can genuinely look ninety percent complete while most of the remaining effort is still ahead.
Not answerable without reading the code, and anyone who answers before doing so is guessing. A short paid audit settles it and costs a fraction of either option.
