aspects of the work involved
Explanation:
I think "o material" refers to the work being proposed, so I'd say something like: ".. and all aspects of the work (or services) involved (or proposed) will fall exclusively within that scope of work.

Apologies to others - I felt my answer needed a bit of explanation.
