I think thats where local companies fail , you look at a comapny name and want to make a big kill there and then @alvin the three company that were shortlisted these were the quotes 200m, 170m 120m On Fri, Jan 29, 2010 at 1:19 PM, Alvin Jason Ochieng <ajochola@gmail.com>wrote:

That is probably precisely why Nokia abandoned working with local entrepreneurs. Why would they agree to be fleeced in the manner you are prescribing? Instead of trying to fleece them with the contract why not be creative. Offer an extended support contract and charge for that (that will offer more services). Give then an option to purchase with source code and charge for that. Be creative! Don't just add zeros when you see Nokia. Everyone (including Nokia) wants to be treated fairly and to get value for money

In the defence of the kenyan entrepreneur, im i supposed to charge the same to do software for imelda as i am for nokia? Honestly, isnt the issue more about how much more than it is whether i should charge more in the first place?

The truth is many companies in Kenya have this idea of the big
payday...
so when they see a name like Nokia asking for a proposal, they charge accordingly. Njaa ni mingi.
