IT contractors and other freelance workers should consider the merits of submitting projects early, it has been claimed.

According to the PCG, there are pros and cons to any decision to deliver a project early.

Some clients are pleased that the project has been delivered in good time to allow and queries to be addressed, or for any problems or glitches to be rectified.

However, some clients may see a quick turnaround as a sign of low-quality rushed work, so it is important to manage expectations efficiently, the PCG claims.

The piece concludes by saying that freelancers such as IT contractors should put together a thorough working contract to ensure that expectations from both parties met during the project.

Earlier in the month, the PCG recommended IT contractors and other self-employed workers get professional accountancy advice over their taxation, to avoid the stress of complicated legislation and negating the potential for any costly mistakes.
