Talk:Fixed price
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Are you kidding me? Is it just a phrase used in Indian English? How about a type of contract (as opposed to a Time and Materials contract) that is used all over the world? This is a couple of references [1], [2]. Solarapex 04:10, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Unit Pricing
I would like to see a section here (or separate article) on unit pricing, which to me is an alternative to fixed pricing. Unit pricing is cafeteria-style, in which the two parties agree on services or materials being provided at a fixed price per unit (per quantity or unit of time) up to a maximum contract value. An example might be rental of construction equipment, where the per unit price is fixed at $X/backhoe and the customer can rent 1, 2 or 3 at the same unit cost up to the limit of the contract (NTE, not-to-exceed) value.
I'll bookmark this and write something myself if I don't see anything (or find an entry elsewhere) after a while.--CheMechanical (talk) 23:37, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
