Sort of - every big consultant is charged to their project by the
hour. Whether that gets passed on to the client (ie a T&M type
contract) or not (FP) is a different matter.
But the project's costs are hourly; so if you've got fixed revenue,
and variable labour cost, monitoring and controlling timesheets is
•essential*.

this every sodding day. Don't talk to me about bloody exchange rates,
either!)
