Client Archives -

Interesting heading, isn’t it? You got right where I am going.

Being from the IT world, it is a very common and well known scenario for me. Clients has their own assumptions and knowledge, based on that, they used to plan for the budget. Post deciding the budget sometimes clients do research a bit more however once they make up their mind and finalize the budget, it is hard to get it changed.

Lets talk the other side of the coin.

As soon as the client interact the vendor or the service provider about the requirement, the marketing technique, greed and brand name comes first in picture then other things, such as security, optimization, duration etc.

So during the requirement gathering, vendor helps their client by providing various of options, be it less or more useful for client. Till this stage all the conversation goes happily and both parties respond, talk to each other frequently until the cost presented to the client.

Dramatic factor suddenly makes the client to ignore the marketing team member of the vendor or if the budget matches with client’s budget then suddenly time crunch comes in picture, which forces the marketing team to complete the project ASAP.

In both the cases the pressure further passes to the developers or workers, their incentives, salary hike, working hours etc. for them if the project allocated to them then load of work and if the project doesn’t allocate then loosing job issue.

Getting back to the point Requirement and Budget, in some cases smart client used to exploit the vendor and in some cases vendors and their marketing team play smartly with the vendor.

Apart from all that, most of the time the vendors are actually providing right suggestions to the client and not ready to compromise the quality or brand name of themselves.
