Offshore Outsourcing: Hourly Rate or Project Based?离岸外包：时薪或项目为基础的呢？
When outsourcing software development, it is a common question for both vendor and supplier - do you charge/purchase by the hour or by the project? I suppose there are merits to both types of software development contracts.当外包软件开发，这是一个共同的问题，为双方的供应商和供应商-您是否收费/购买按小时或由项目呢？我假设有其可取之，以这两种类型的软件开发合同。
In my experience, if you wish to procure offshore software development at an hourly rate, then I recommend在我的经验，如果你想采购的离岸软件开发，在一小时计算的话，我建议 oDesk odesk . They have good hourly reporting tools. In addition, in order to build trust in the relationship, they will take random screenshots of the developer to verify they are working on software development and not padding hours.他们有良好的每小时报告的工具。此外，在以建立信任的关系，他们将采取随机抽样的截图发展来验证他们的工作对软件开发，而不是填充小时。
If you want project based, go to如果您想要的项目为基础，去 rentacoder or或 scriptlance . I still find these sites a bit lacking in the usability and design perspective, but they get they job done. Do you know of a better site? There are few others listed in the 。我仍然觉得这些网站上有点欠缺，在可用性和设计的角度看，但他们得到他们完成工作。你知不知道一个更好的网站？有其他几个上市，在 Outsource Marketplace外包市场 section of the Offshore software development review section of this site.部分离岸软件开发检讨节本网站。

Project based pricing [some version of firm-fixed price] requires experience on the part of the vendor, confidence on the part of the customer, a willingness from both parties to negotiate an exacting scope of work, and the business processes, project management procedures and collaboration tools required for both parties to track work against the scope.项目为基础的定价[一些版本的企业固定价格]需要的经验，对部分供应商，有信心，对部分客户，愿意由当事双方谈判达成一项艰巨的工作范围，以及业务流程，项目管理程序和协作工具，需要当事双方的工作，对轨道的范围。 Perhaps you find the sites catering to full-project outsourcing to be lacking because the activity of creating, negotiating and managing a successfully outsourced project is simply too complex for simple text/graphic web-based software to handle.或许你找到的地点，饮食，以全面项目外包是缺乏，因为活动的创造，谈判和管理一个成功的外包项目，简直是太复杂，为简单的文本/图形基于网络的软件来处理。
Perhaps web technology is just suited to managing the suplemental staffing of a “code monkey” churning out a program module against a detailed specification including psuedo-code, with no room for the creativity normally associated with software development and problem solving.也许Web技术只是适合管理suplemental人手一个“代码猴子”粗制滥造的程序模块针对的详细规格，包括拟代码，没有余地的创造力，通常与软件开发和解决问题。

Todd,托德，
Great topic - buyers who want to build remote teams need to think about whether to pay hourly or on a fixed bid basis.伟大的主题-买家谁所要建设的远程队需要想一想是否要付出每小时或在一个固定的竞标价格的基础上。
(Disclosure - I work for （披露-我的工作 oDesk odesk ) ）
Our customers have told us that the hourly model is best when:我们的客户告诉我们说，每小时的模式是最好的时候：
* Your requirements are not set in stone, and may change over time *您的要求并不是一成不变的，并可能随着时间改变
* You may want to retain the worker’s services on a long-term basis *您可能会想要保留工人的服务，一项长期的基础
* You may want the flexibility to end the project after only a few hours of work *您可能会想要的灵活性，以结束该项目后，只有几个小时的工作
A fixed-bid project model may be desirable if:一个固定的投标项目模型可能是可取的，如果：
* Your requirements are extremely detailed AND set in stone *您的要求是非常详细和设置在石
* Your project size is relatively small (less than a few weeks of work) *您的项目规模相对较小（小于几个星期的工作）
