I manage the large dollar projects for the bank division I work for, and I know all too well about sponsor's "moving the goal posts" mid-project or large scale "scope creep" after the requirements have been approved and signed off on. Combine that with the inevitable "yeah, I know the requirement says that, but what I really meant was this" and it had to have been an impossible situation for you guys.
It's nice to blame the customer but honestly nobody ever wants to hear it.Foosball God said:Except that you tell the builder they must build the house by a certain date and you'll have an architect deliver the blueprints. But then the architect doesn't deliver the blueprints and you instead have the builder draw the plans while they are trying to build the house. And when the builder tells you that certain things aren't going to be possible and still allow for the building inspectors to come in and check the house before you live in it, you tell the builder to build it anyway.JZilla said:It's really no different than paying somebody to build you a house. If you select a bad builder then I guess it's your fault when they build your house wrong. If you ask for a ladder to the moon and they tell you no problem, they can do that, then I guess it's your fault for asking.
So yeah, it's pretty much exactly like your example.
This contract wasn't properly managed. Neither were either of yours. The contractor's failure as well. I'm not surprised you righties don't know how business works. You don't even know how reproductive organs work.
