Marc -
I am available, and just completed a project under the same constraints as
the situation you mention, so I guess I'm on a roll. Give me a call anytime
you want at home/work 858-455-0377 or cell 619-379-8813. I've attached my
resume for your perusal. My current rate is $75/hr, but I can be flexible
since your situation is fixed.
Talk to you soon,
NAT

> Greetings everyone,
>
> We have a contract with a client, to finish the beta version of a public
> website by April 14th. This is a firm, very firm deadline. Due to
> continued illness within the company, we are behind in our
> project schedules
> and are in need of assistance from a telecommunting fusebox subcontractor
> with some (or all) of this project. A (very) small part of the project is
> already complete. This is a fixed-bid project, so we can only
> offer a fixed
> amount to complete the work, with a retainer to get you started. I hate
> asking subcontractors to work under a fixed bid, because I
> believe every bit
> of your time is worth something, but we're locked in on this one.
> I want to
> be up-front about this now, so as not to offend anyone used to working
> strictly T&M.
>
> If you are interested, please send me an email off-list with your
> qualifications and your typical subcontractor's rate, and your typical
> retainer amount/percentage. I will disclose to you the nature of the
> project, the amount we are able to provide as a retainer, and the
> remaining
> amount that I can provide upon completion. If you are still
> interested, we
> can then continue with a non-disclosure agreement and detailed project
> specifications. The specs are quite clear, and the contract is very well
> planned. I've just run out of time and need someone to keep my ass out of
> the fire.
>
> To be considered, you'll need the following:
>
> -- Experience with ColdFusion 4.5 with Fusebox
> -- Intermediate SQL
> -- The site is based on Microsoft SQL Server 7.0; we can discuss how
> database administration, design and configuration will be handled
> between us
> -- The ability to deliver the specified product on time -- there
> is a clause
> in the contract which allows the client a discount if we are late with the
> beta; we do not wish to lose any more revenue on this that we are
> about to.
> -- A willingness to provide at least a biweekly update on your progress
> between now and April 14th -- not to micromanage or hassle you,
> but to make
> sure that things remain on track. (We've had problems with subcontractors
> in the past that we do NOT wish to repeat!!)
> -- MSN Messenger and Microsoft Netmeeting or a Net2Phone account for voice
> and text collaboration over the Internet (other means may be
> considered, but
> for the sake of expediency this is what we are already set up with here.)
> -- The willpower to work within the specifications but still be creative.
> We definitely don't want to ADD work to our list! ;)
>
> A qualified fusebox developer should be able to deliver within
> the timeframe
> specified. I apologize that I do not have fusedocs, but the signed
> documents which outline the project specifications are very very
> clear, and
> there are numerous clauses in the contract that prevent scope-creep.
>
> Depending on how our discussion with the fixed bid amount pans
> out, we'd be
> willing to offer a bonus for finishing the project early. And because I
> have more projects coming down the line, continued work between us (under
> much better circumstances!) may be possible if this project works
> out well.
>
> Again, I hate the restrictions we are under, but we were not anticipating
> having to subcontract this project. If you are interested in
> helping out on
> this, please use the contact information below. We'll be making our
> decision by the end of the week.
>
> Thank you for your time,
