Service Provider vs Services Recipient #018

Identity of honest service recipients, these people always look for a transparent service provider

Identity of honest service recipients, these people always look for transparent service providers, view their portfolio, view projects, and read terms and conditions, after being satisfied they make their decision and are given the responsibility of a dream project by signing a written agreement with the services provider. This is the only way to find the right service provider. The service provider also wants that such service recipients should always reach them.

Many times, service recipients try to get service on their terms by luring partial charges. These people can never be honest because the service provider provides their services to you with the belief that all terms and conditions of the service provider shall be complied with and the Service Recipient shall enter into and abide by the written agreement. When some service recipients do not do so, they can never be called honest.

There are many ways to identify these people…

These people call the service provider with great love and respect that you come here to see the site and understand everything, which means that the service recipients demand your valuable time free, professional advice free and also inviting for site visits free of cost. In this way, service recipients try to make an architect a site engineer and he is asked to hold a measuring tape and measure so that you can collect all the important information for the design. When the service recipient treats someone like this, he can never be said to have received honest service.

These people never talk to the service provider on professional charges but cheat by luring some part payment. Many times, these people also start arguing with the service provider that whose fee they are asking for, we have not taken any design drawing from you, nor have you given us something for which you should be paid, or the excuse of not liking the design or the excuse of not completing the design, sometimes some people say you are demanding for the fee, we do not need your design drawings, etc. you can withdraw it from us. If the service provider is not experienced then they often cheat these people. The service provider should be aware of such excuses.

If a service recipient does not provide the correct and complete information about the project to a service provider, then such a service recipient is under suspicion because the person who is talking about making a project of lakhs, crores, or more budget then it is not possible, that he does not have complete project information.

Our advice to all the service providers is to provide your valuable service on their terms and conditions and establish themselves as a brand. There may be many service providers in the open market whose attitude or experience is not positive, who do not follow the standards of the profession, and who do not follow any terms and conditions, due to which the experience of some service recipients has not been positive but some people of this type do not have much effect on the profession.

If service recipients are not able to reach the service provider, then they should find the shortcomings of their business method and improve them or if your business model is right then they should wait for the right time, maybe less or no work in the market. But never compromise with the standards. There are always ups and downs in business. Keep trying and be positive, you can be a hero or a villain in the profession just by following the standards.

Only an honest service provider can get honest service recipients. Thereby, the portfolio of the service provider is strengthened and the service recipient experiences satisfaction and creates a long-lasting family and valued relationship between a Patron and Professional.

Service Recipient – The service Recipient should first see the service provider’s portfolio, read its terms and conditions, clear all doubts before the agreement, then give the correct and complete information about the project to the service provider and then write the agreement, and must proceed. Trust the service provider and follow their instructions. Remember service providers don’t just work for fees but also give their best for their portfolio. Trust that your project will be state-of-the-art and established in your area.

Service Provider – The responsibility of the service provider is more than that of the service recipient. Recipient of Services gives you the responsibility to turn your dream into reality. In which his hard-earned money and also associated with the responsibility of protecting the family. So, standards should never be compromised. This also does not mean that the service providers should compromise on their professional charges. The service provider should take only its real and complete professional charges.



When service recipients and service providers sincerely take care of each other’s interests, then an example of trust is established and the cost of building construction is also controlled. And that is how a building is built maintenance-free.

The recipient of services should avoid insistence on taking more scope of work and number of services more than professional charges. Remember service providers provide you with more than professional charges, they also provide support services to you. When you insist on taking more scope of work and numbers of services then there is additional pressure on the working team which is not possible without additional professional charges. You can increase the scope of your services by paying additional professional charges for a particular service.

Just imagine, how much competition is there in our profession today, everyone has to work on very less professional charges to stay in the market, to which team and design consultant all contribute. Everyone has their expenses. On this, when someone says that your professional charges are high, then we cannot help some such people. Because people who understand the profession never debate professional fees but discuss designs. We can never explain it to those who don’t understand the profession. It is not fair to argue professional fees with such people.
