purchasing source code from third party vendor
- by Richard Friend
Hi
Our company uses some third party vendors to write some of our external facing web sites, however with one vendor we keep experiencing over inflated charges for simple changes and it has been decided to bring the product in-house.
I have been tasked to provide a list of deliverables/checkpoints that would form a part of the agreement.
what is the minimum you would expect if you are purchasing the source code of a product that you have paid for the development of, should we expect code for any custom libraries they may be using that were written not for us etc..
This is all written in .net so i am well aware we could just get the code via reflector, however i dont think my boss would go for this ;-)
