I usually work in my home office in Sedona Arizona but I also enjoy traveling to customer sites. I prefer using my standard MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT and NDA for my consulting services, augmented with short statements of work. My consulting rate when working remotely is $60/hour. My rate is $100/hour (plus travel expenses) when working on site.
I offer a 10% discount for projects that use my standard MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT and NDA for my consulting services.
I am also happy to negotiate a custom contract with you. I understand that the simplified terms in my standard MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT and NDA may not be compatible with your company's requirements.
I also offer a 10% discount for projects where the software that I write for your project is released under any of the following open source licenses: LGPL v3, GPL v3, AGPL v3, Apache 2, MIT or Eclipse Public License 1.0. The copyright will be in both my name and the customer's name for open source work.
I have over 25 years programming experience and my customers have been pleased with
both
how efficiently I work and the quality of my work.

I usually work in close collaboration with my customers. When I work remotely I expect that we will have frequent conversations using Skype with screen sharing as needed and if you are a programmer we can pair program using tmux on one of my servers. We can use shared github repositories for your projects.
