Scope creep refers to changes, continuous or uncontrolled growth in a project's scope, at any point after the project begins. This typically occurs when the project's scope is not accurately defined, documented, or controlled. In the scenario described, the client's request for changes in the project specifications that affect both cost and schedule is a classic example of scope creep.
