At Bulcode, we understand that each project is a unique journey. Whether you're exploring the T&M model for its flexibility and transparency or considering a fixed-price approach for its predictability, our goal is to align our services with your project's specific needs.
Time & Materials (T&M) model: Flexibility meets precision
In software development, the right collaboration model is key to project success. Bulcode's Time & Materials model offers unparalleled flexibility, ensuring you get exactly what you need, when you need it, without the constraints of fixed-price models. Our approach ensures transparency and control over your project costs, with a detailed monthly invoice for the hours worked.

T&M vs. Fixed price: Choosing what's best for you
Choosing the right pricing model is crucial for project success. Here’s how T&M compares to Fixed price, helping you make an informed decision based on your project’s needs.
| Aspect | Time & Materials | Fixed price |
|---|---|---|
| Budget flexibility | Adjustable based on actual work done. | Predetermined, with less flexibility. |
| Scope adaptability | Ideal for evolving projects. | Best for projects with defined outcomes. |
| Project type suitability | Perfect for long-term, dynamic projects. | Suitable for short, well-specified projects. |
| Change management | Welcomes changes any time. | Limited scope for changes without extra costs. |
| Risk and cost overruns | Paying only for work done may reduce unmaterialized risk costs. | Fixed price includes a premium for potential risks. |

The company's adeptness at applying Agile methodologies within the constraints of a fixed price and scope project was remarkable. This not only demonstrated their flexibility and commitment to delivering value but also their skill in balancing structure with adaptability.
Their communication was exemplary, characterised by transparency and promptness. The team’s responsiveness to our feedback and their proactive updates ensured a seamless and efficient collaboration, making it clear that our project was a top priority.
The quality of work, coupled with the team's initiative to go beyond the agreed scope—through performance optimisations, load tests, and backend refactoring—was particularly impressive. These efforts not only enhanced the project's outcome but also demonstrated their commitment to excellence and added value.
