Our Fees
Corpus Consulting sets realistic fees that reflect the experience and skills of our people, while delivering value for money to you.
We believe that by delivering clear value for money we will get repeat business from our clients and that they will recommend us to new clients. We do not underestimate the value of a personal referral.
Broadly put, fees for our engagements vary according to:
- the nature of the engagement;
- the seniority and skills of the staff required;
- outgoings necessarily incurred; and
- specialist equipment necessarily employed.
When charging our professional fees on a per diem (or per day) basis, which is at a discount to the pro rata hourly prime rate, the rate is inclusive of:
- reasonable metropolitan kilometres;
- telephone calls;
- facsimile charges; and
- reasonable photocopy / printing charges
up to a maximum of 10 hours per day.
Hours in excess of 10 hours per day will be charged at an advised hourly rate. (The work / life balance is a part of our philosophy.)
Additional services attract various advised charges, and there is a realistic per-kilometre-necessarily-travelled charge.
Travel, accommodation and messing costs are charged either in accordance with various Australian public sector published allowances rates; on a realistic per diem basis; or on a cost recovery basis. We will always settle these arrangements with you before commencing an engagement.
Other outgoings and outsourced specialist service providers are charged back at cost plus 4%.
We also enter into contract arrangements with our cost structure being subject to negotiation.
