Pricing Methods
The charge for a project is either based upon the actual hours worked
multiplied by the rate for the people involved or a fixed price job against a specification.
Where writing the specificaton is part of the job these costs will be included in the
cost of the job.
Payment Terms
To maintain our lean pricing policy we need to have rapid payment of invoices,
whilst we all have understanding bank managers late payment means work is
being done on credit and credit costs.
Invoices are presented on the web and notified by email, with the date of presentation on them.
The invoice may, if required, also be printed and posted.
Either way the date of presentation is the start of the clock ticking.
The customer has a period, currently set at 10 days, to pay.
