This is going to be a fairly expensive project requiring many many man hours. I don't want to intrust it to a company that doesn't remember meeting with me three times. [/quote] You got the half of your choice made. I'd report that to the company who wants the website done. What else? You're making more money than I ever had the opportunity to, do I get a fee on each cool advice? Ain't that the definition of a consultant? 2 minutes typing, geesh it will cost.. :) Just a bad joke. Seriously, a large project that involves large costs has to de befined on a very, EXTREMELY clear basis, very well planned, if it fails, it could cost more than just its original price. Being working on a badly done Access database system (they tried to make a MS Sql without MS Sql), I can tell you it costed huge bucks to the company, caused a lot of problems and costs. A whole lot.. So why entrusting a small messy/shady company, until it has a perfect portfolio and very good reputation? (sigh, by saying this, I can understand some assholes who chose not to trust the company that employed me as a consultant, so I'm doing something I would have hated done to me). On the other hand, some big companies happen to lack organisation (it is hard to "move" fast for a crowd), but it never seems to last. Messy shady+big project = shite. Here in Switzerland, we make "offer calls" for such projects, hoping to receive well planned offers. Such offers are never enough to start the project, though, which is normal. Just a "well done draft" or presentation. Loading...
