All of which are avoided by using a computer consultant agreement.

Even if you mainly bill on an hourly rate and only put out fires, do upgrades, and very little pc maintenance, you still need the computer consultant agreement.

A well developed computer consultant agreement is designed to accommodate the clients specific needs, protect your time investment, prevent lawsuits, and establish a basis for increasing fees/time with the customer.

Describe Services

In your computer consultant agreement, it's important to adequately define the services you are offering, without placing limits on your abilities. For example, if you're contracting to install software, you may also want to consider offering software maintenance once the software is up and running.

This will benefit the client as he and his employees can concentrate on running the business, not learning to manage the software. It helps to generate your company a recurring income. Without the maintenance agreement portion written in the computer consultant agreement, time will pass and you may lose this additional work.

Protect your Time

If you bill your client on an hourly basis, the computer consultant agreement can prevent any discrepancies, or misunderstandings, about the time you are billing. By stating exactly what your rates are, and the increments by which you charge, your client will be more accepting of the final bill.

Any questions have already been answered by your computer consultant agreement. For example, suppose you are called to determine why a computer doesn't seem to be working.

As you begin your investigation, you simply find that someone had adjusted the view on the monitor, so that the information simply wasn't showing up. It takes you all of 15 minutes, yet you bill your rate only in hourly increments.

With a signed computer consulting agreement, there is no battle. Otherwise, the client may be upset.

Prevent Lawsuits

Any business, large or small, is always protective of its data. By clearly stating your limits of liability with your computer consultant agreement, you virtually eliminate any potential legal battles, should loss of data occur.

Establish a Basis

By clearly stating your services, your limits and liabilities, as well as potential future client needs, in the computer consultant agreement you are building a reputable basis for a long lasting provider/client relationship.

Trust, reliability, and fairness are all established using the all important computer consultant agreement.

Don't lose money, or leave yourself unprotected.
