The model introduces an initial test phase after which budget, due date, and the way of steering the scope within the framework is agreed upon. This differs from traditional fixed-price contracts in that fixed-price contracts usually require a detailed and exact description of the subject matter of the contract in advance. Fixed price contracts ...
Both "Cost" and "Time" / "Delivery" represent the top level project's inputs. The ‘Project Diamond’ model [10] engenders this blurred focus through the inclusion of "Scope" and "Quality" separately as the ‘third’ constraint. While there is merit in the addition of "Quality" as a key constraining factor, acknowledging the increasing ...

At pre-tender stage the contractor evaluates the cost to execute the project (based on the above documents such as drawings, specifications, schedules, tender instruction and ...
After any finite time, there will still be some proportion of prices that have not responded and remained fixed. This contrasts with the Taylor model, where there is a fixed length for contracts - for example 4 periods. After 4 periods, firms will have reset their price. The Calvo pricing model played a key role in the derivation of the New ...

Fixed-price contracts are often used for military and government contractors to put the risk on the side of the vendor and control costs.
