Flat Rate Structure
Flat pricing arrangement can be accommodated shortly after the work has been stabilized, so a predictable level of work and stable scope of work can be determined for flat pricing arrangements to remain relevant to the work performed on an on-going basis.
While the work is being stabilized, usually only for a short time, hourly rates will apply.
