A fixed number of support hours per month to allow you to budget your support and
development costs
We offer a standard hourly fixed rate for being available as required, in chunks of 10
hours per month at a reducing rate per hour. Typically coverage is 8x5, although
greater coverage can be arranged for additional cost.
We offer standard response rates under an agreed schedule as arranged. Obviously
all regular support contracts take priority over any other work we have going.
Any work required above the arranged amount in any month would normally be
charged at our ad-hoc development rate. Any unused hours may be ‘banked’ for up
to three months. If they are not used after this period, they expire.
This allows minor updates, fixes and enhancements to be made to Metastorm BPM
systems without the need for budget approval. Given the agile nature of the
product, both we, and our customers, find this the most suitable approach.
