ver comentario Explanation: ajuste alzado es evidentemente lo mismo que "partida alzada", o "P.A." que se utiliza mucho en España. Todavía no he encontrado un satisfactorio equivalente en inglés, pero por si este comentario ayuda a alguien, aquí lo dejo. |

peer agreement (net): +1one-time cost Explanation: He aquí la definición en español: Contratos de Construcción El régimen por ajuste alzado consiste en fijar un precio fijo y cerrado para un trabajo claramente determinado. Es recomendable para la contratación de cualquier obra nueva, o rubro de ella, siempre que se cuente con un proyecto definido y detallado. Es problemático para obras que sufren cambios de proyecto, de presupuesto o de tiempo. http://www.suarquitecto.com/antes.htm In inglés, decimos "one-time cost" o "one-time fee" cuando el contrato tiene un precio fijo (no por unidad). |
