E-Project Contracting

by Jim Highsmith

Aggressive schedules, evolving technology, rapidly changing requirements, uncertain business models, fixed-priced contracts -- pick out the term that seems incongruent with the others. "How do we write fixed-price contracts using agile methodologies?" is a question I hear frequently from clients and workshop participants. "Wrong question," is my usual reply. But while "wrong" in some respects, it is a reasonable question, and the issue of writing e-project contracts needs to be addressed.
