I'll toss one more Government contract anecdote on here.
A few years ago, my partner and I were asked to put together a proposal to redesign a complete website for a provincial government. Not for a government agency, but for the entire government. This province had a GDP of over $235 BILLION at the time.
They told us that the budget for the project was $10,000. In total.
They also told us that they new that the budget was completely out to lunch, but since this was a high profile job, tough shit.
Governments don't just pass out big contracts. When they feel like it, they can screw over agencies too.
We met with them, and ended up passing on the job.
- Good call. I'd say that's in-line with the same decision-making that led to the $487k logo.luckyorphan
