Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Nice calc’s, but 60-80 percent of the time is spent on retreiving input and checking output within the organisation. Only as from the first issue you can work on a basis of no. of act’s. If you’re know within the organisation this can off-course change.

Well Just a Suggestion.

How Long Does it Take you to Create a Schedule. How Many Activity’s does it Contain.
A= Activity’s
H= Hours to Make Schedule
X = Your Hourly Rate
Then H / A x X = Rate Per Activity.

Easy.

Their is to many verables to be able to make it a norm. Example = Salary / Productivity / Detail Required / Input from Others / Review. etc.

Hope this Help

No matter which way you put it.

The bottom line remains the same.

You will find it varies dramatically. Different industry sectors, different regions.

In the end its all supply and demand.

For tender schedules i generally work on a fixed price, and sometimes even negotiate to do the tender schedule at no charge in return for an ongoing commitment on the project if the bid is sucessful.

Consulting work is generally charged on an hourly rate.

are you a sole trader / contractor or do you manage a consultancy?

A nice idea, maybe we can talk to the legal fraternity, as they seem to specialise in that type of thing:-)
