I am close to entering into a contract for FM development with a university for work at the dept. and school levels.
My 39 years of experience in higher ed helps me proceed with a little caution. I have seen instances when work was completed and then the party was sued with the result being a settlement that hinged on simply forgoing the fee for services performed, while the univ. retained use of the product. Seems like in some locales that might be standard operating procedure to avoid payment. The key is the contract and I am wondering if anyone has had similar experiences and might wish to offer some advice? Thank you. ---------- Rodney Schmidt
