Ugitech vs Fixed-price contracts
Fixed price vs time and materials: what you are actually buying.
Fixed-price contracts feel safe because they limit financial exposure. What they actually do is transfer risk: from budget overrun to scope reduction. Understanding which risk matters more to your organisation determines which model fits.
When Fixed-price contracts makes sense
→Scope is fully known and unlikely to change during delivery
→You have a regulatory or procurement requirement for a fixed budget
→The work is commodity execution with well-understood specifications
→You want contractual protection more than delivery flexibility
When Ugitech fits
✓Scope will evolve as you learn from building, which it almost always does
✓You want transparency over what is being built and why, not contractual protection
✓You prefer to steer delivery based on real feedback rather than a signed spec
✓You understand that a fixed price on an unknown scope means someone absorbs the uncertainty somewhere
The honest take
Fixed price does not eliminate budget risk. It converts it into scope risk. We work in time and materials because it keeps incentives aligned: we build what creates value, you pay for what gets built.
