work invoiced on the basis of time spent

OK - yet again the Germans can do it more snappily! But I think this is the basic idea ... maybe someone else can come up with a neater formulation!

Hope it helps anyway

works performed / works charged separately

I do not see how once can expend works.
While expenditure is the correct translation for "Aufwand", I believe that that is not what is meant here.

There is a contract value, that excludes thiose items which are accounted for on the basis of performance. Probably these are hours spent in uinstallation, which have an hourly price an attached.

"time-and-materials basis"

I have often encountered this in proposals for software solutions. It obviously means expenses incurred in terms of labor costs + actual material costs.
