This manual is for BUS FPX 3050 Assessment 3, start to submission. Communicating a Team Contract Video Script asks you to write the script for a short video in which you, as a leader, present a team contract to your team: why the contract exists, the expectations it sets for communication, collaboration, decision making and conflict, and how the team will hold itself accountable. The grade turns on communicating for the medium. A script that sounds natural when spoken, and makes each expectation concrete, scores above a document read aloud. Below is the method our tutors use, a structure that maps to the criteria, and an annotated sample excerpt. Prefer to hand it off? A premium original sample for this exact assessment comes back in 24 to 48 hours, revised free until it meets the guide. Capella's catalog lists the course as BUS-FPX3050, and some courserooms print BUS3050; both point to this same Assessment 3. In current courserooms this assessment typically appears as "Communicating a Team Contract Video Script".
One honesty note before the manual: Capella revises courses and scoring guides over time, so always write to the exact scoring guide attached to your assessment in the courseroom. The course identity above is verified on capella.edu; the method and structure below are our tutors' approach to it, not Capella's official rubric text.
How BUS FPX 3050 Assessment 3 is scored
FlexPath does not use letter grades. Each criterion in the scoring guide lands on one of four levels, and the level descriptions are the real writing brief:
| Level | What it means on a team contract video script |
|---|---|
| Distinguished | The script is conversational and suited to video, the purpose of the contract is clear, expectations are specific, accountability is addressed, and the tone builds commitment. |
| Proficient | The script is complete, but some expectations are vague. |
| Basic | The script reads like a written document. |
| Non-performance | The contract expectations or accountability are missing. |
Check the time limit for the video in your courseroom and write to that length.

Here's what I'm asking of all of us when it comes to communication.1 If something is urgent, call or message directly, and if it can wait a day, put it in the team channel so everyone sees it; and let's agree to answer team messages within one working day, even if the answer is just that you're working on it.2 That way nobody is left guessing, and we spend our meetings deciding things instead of catching up.3
