Thanks everyone for the information! I have passed it up the food chain for them to use.
Bing, things are pretty much back to normal here, still a few blue tarps and some bare places but new construction is filling up the holes.

A high rate for some, but not for others. On 11/23/06, Bradford Bingel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: ** Whoa! $60,000 for 300 hours is $2,000/hour, a hefty rate indeed. (And even if that was TWO contractors, each logging 300 hours, that's still a $1,000/hour rate.) For the greater Port Charlotte / Punta Gorda area, I'd venture $70 - $100/hour would be a competitive range. Of course, complex short-term engagements using a traveling consultant, will probably cost more, while relatively simple long-term engagements using a local consultant, may cost less. Not sure about Remedy consultant availability in SW Florida but would venture it's difficult and you may need to plan on using a "non-native" and paying travel (or building travel into the rate). For 6 months labor plus travel (airfare, lodging, meals) I'd suggest budgeting around $125K (more for complex work, less for simpler staff augmentation). The closest concentrations of Remedy consultants are probably Georgia and North Carolina. Hope this helps! Please email if you need any additional information or need assistance finding a suitable consultant. -- Bing Bradford Bingel ("Bing") ITM3 California http://www.itm3.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (email) 925-260-6394 (mobile) p.s. How goes the post-hurricane reconstruction? I visit Fort Myers every year and regularly make the drive north. Last time I was through Punta Gorda, "downtown" still looked a little bare! ________________________________ From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG ] On Behalf Of Katherine Hoffner Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 9:07 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Contractor/Consultant fee for approx 6 months ** Receiently we hired 2 people to help with putting 6.3 on our new server. Our original Sys Admin left to get married, how could she, and left me to be the new sys admin. Thus needing the help. They worked from the end of june to the first week in September and they were paid 60,000 dollars. Just under 300 hrs of work were contracted for.
