Yes, we did not start out with flat rate project fees, but got into it after a bit of experience of some years.
We did start out at 1000 a day and never did the hourly thing as we found it a stumbling block.
These days we deal almost entirely on a flat rate project based on what we have to do.
If I was undertaking a turn-key FSVP development on multiple products and locations we would charge remotely $8000.00 + Fees for such things as fda registration + estimated travel.
We normally estimate all travel and related expenses for doing so within 10 days, add a padding to that for the unseen things and then refund any difference (above 50USN) between what was spent and what was actual as we don't and have never made travel expenses a profit center.
And we never ever allow the client to dictate our travel nor book for us..unless they have a net jets membership or own their own business jet.
Hope that helps
All the Best,
