I have been involved in a lot of projects over the years.
Rule No. 1, no change is free! When you agree to do the job and the requirements change, you renegotiate compensation based upon the magnitude of the change. Requirement bloat is a standard tactic to get more from you without additional compensation. If the schedule is at risk, YOU have the power. Don't be afraid to ask for more.
Rule No. 2, make sure all tasks are clearly defined. It helps you with Rule No. 1.
Rule No. 3, if the customer pleads that they are poor, then ask for a piece of the action.
