Fixed Price Contract (FPC) offer

I'm currently on a fixed price contract; no day rates involved just payment on delivery of milestones.
I worked out the amount for each milestone by working out (guessing!) how many days would be required for delivery x what sort of day rate the role would get. The tender document was helpful as it also contained rough estimates of each milestones start and delivery date.
System is working reasonably ok, but I have had to remind the chap I'm delivering too on a couple of occasions that 'I'm afraid I don't have a milestone for that....'; he's been ok and generally stopped asking for 'extras'.
This system gives a lot more freedom on working practices, as long as I'm available for required calls then how and when I deliver is up to me.Comment
