I agree with B.D. Finch. Per granddictionaire.fr, "forfait" is commercial slang for package. |
|
request for (definition of) the scope of the package Explanation: I think that, in this context, "périmètre du forfait" is the scope of the ongoing maintenance package. The sentence is saying that, because of the need for a pre-development design phase that will set the parameters, it is impossible to expect this scope to be defined in advance. |

scope of the fixed price contract Explanation: Je pense que l'on oppose clairement ici la régie (jours.hommes) (mandays) et le forfait (fixed price) La maintenance en conditions opérationnelles et la maintenance corrective peuvent être au forfait, mais jamais la maintenance évolutive puisque comme il est écrit, cela dépend de la demande et se fera en régie (abaque jh en annexe) |

Reference: I agree with B.D. Finch. Per granddictionaire.fr, "forfait" is commercial slang for package. Reference information: http://www.granddictionnaire.com/ficheOqlf.aspx?Id_Fiche=265... http://www.granddictionnaire.com/Resultat.aspx As we all know, demander is French for "to ask". So, demande du périmètre du forfait could be either so Finch suggested or it could be a question about the extent of the said package covers. I'd say the former. Just giving you references to support Finch's answer. |
