Structure Of Consultant's Fees

[Debalina Roy]

Hi,
This is for all those who are working with Consulting firms or have worked with external Consultants in their organisation.

I need to know
1) how consultants structure their fees. I.e. if our overall expenses are say 'X amount' then what are the typical headings that I should break it up into?
2)Typically, which of the above headings covers the majority of the fees?
3) I need the above in two scenarios:
a) we are offering hour based services. say 10*8= 80 hrs per month
b) we are offering project completion based services
Regards,
Debalina
