You have to careful with this. Things that sound like good ideas to the programmer can often be bad ideas for the user. Case in point: a customer (we do embedded design services) came to us to redesign a manufacturing tool and mentioned that it was used both in the US and Costa Rica. We suggested adding Spanish language screens because, well, it lets more people in Costa Rica use the device. Problem was, the users pushed back because knowing English got them more money and they could be replaced by cheaper Spanish-only speaking people if we added the translations. To the point of making money on the ECO's, the problem is that if all your competition is structuring their bids this way, then you have to do the same if you're to have a hope of winnning anything. |
