On the surface a fixed price project and a fixed budget project might seem the same, but they definitely are not! A Fixed Price Project the client and the consultant agree upon a fixed set of features at a fixed price. A Fixed Budget Project, the project expense will not exceed an agreed upon amount. Features will be prioritized and will be addressed until the budget is exhausted or the project is finished (whichever comes first). Both have a "not to exceed" budget, but that's where the similarities end. www.panopticdev.com
