This is the kind if project where agile can truly shine. “Hey, customer, looks like we burnt through half your budget and it doesn’t look like we’ll be able to complete the full spec on what remains… I could ask you to increase the budget, but I think I have a better suggestion. You tell me which feature is most important to get in and well focus on that exclusively, and iterate on that until you're either happy with what you’ve got, or the budget runs out. Then lets take a decision on how to proceed from there if still needed”

Look, I paid you your asking price for the /full/ spec; now you're telling me you will only deliver it partially and have the gall to say I get to decide how much money on top I pay you after the deadline for the full spec has passed? Why on earth would I accept this?

  Look, we already catered to your "corrections" of the full spec here, here, there and then. surely this is work on our side that comes on top of the work we agreed upon. thing is, we already built the x, y and z features that your current solution is lacking, which already saves you top dollar on your business workflows. that's how good we are.

  Yeah, if the customer insists on waterfall, the customer will get waterfall. You can choose to accept this or leave the customer to yell at and sue somebody else.
