        "text": "Fixed-price contracts offer a single, predetermined cost for the entire project, providing budget certainty. The contractor assumes most of the risk for cost overruns. Cost-plus contracts, conversely, reimburse the contractor for actual project costs plus an agreed-upon fee or percentage. While less predictable, cost-plus can offer more flexibility for scope changes. Hometelligent Inc. helps clients understand the implications of each contract type and choose the best fit for their project's risk tolerance and desired control.",
