5.0 BUDGET
Project Manager: Business Analyst: UI Designer:
All time in Discovery Phase will be billed in a time and materials basis based on actual hours worked. This estimate does not constitute a fixed price bid. All hours in the proposal to follow after the discovery phase will be estimates based on our conversation with client personnel involved with this project. These estimates may evolve as we engage and learn more about the actual work to be done. Proposal for fixed price bid is a certain possibility once we have captured the idea and laid it down on screen workflow document as approved by client. Should it be determined that any estimate is discovered to be substantially different than anticipated, this will be immediately communicated and an appropriate plan agreed upon.
