I agree selling hours doesn't feel right. Rather than bore you with yadda yadda, please go through the following slides: http://www.slideshare.net/AnttiKirjavainen/a-minute-of-our-t... , http://www.slideshare.net/juhailola/agile-contracting-killin... . That might give you alternative ways to think about contracts. In short, because we aren't contracting right, all parties end up disappointed. I would say this is one of the main reasons why software projects fail. We sell too big projects (more likely to fail), buyers don't know how to buy (or what they need), we specify too much beforehand (and then stick with that...). There are so many traps. Speaking of outsourcing it all depends on what kind of a relationship you want to build. I think some of this depends on legislation (ie. hire vs. buy). Construct incentives so that they are win-win. |
