Here are some of the Frequently Asked Questions. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us on info@hitechito.com.
Are your rates by project or hourly?
We work both ways. Our hourly rates are US $19 to US $20 per hour. Generally we prepare a detailed time estimate based on the requirements of the work and apply our hourly rates. But for ongoing requirements, it is economical and preferable to work on man month basis. In such an arrangement we can dedicate as many qualified persons as you may require for working exclusively for you on full time basis i.e. 8 hours a day and 5 days a week. Our discounted rate for such an arrangement is US$1800 per man month. Back to Top

Upon completing the project specification that is agreeable to both sides (Client and Hi-Tech), Hi-Tech will provide the required budget and time frame. This approach is preferable for closely specified - fixed projects that require minimum involvement from your team.

How do you define hourly pricing?
In this scheme, Hi-Tech's development, design, and testing staff work as a virtual extension of your team. In other words, we provide you with a fixed work resource for a fixed payment. Usually, you will assign tasks to be fulfilled by the resources we provide. As a rule, you receive a regular report on the work being done. This approach is preferable for relatively large projects with continuously changing specifications, and for projects that require project management from your team. This is also preferable for back office operation contracts.
