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.

Hi all,

Please let me know the answer to this topic.

What is the current salary / freelance pay per hour ?

Also what would a delay analysis company charge per hour ?

(I have a friend who is looking at a possible move.)

Thankyou

Cherie.

Cherie,
The delay company will get way above 600. Try x4 + expenses and that will be a starting point.

Of course the good ones will get more...

Cherie,

Again, depends on experience, qualifications, etc, etc.

A ’trainee’ delay analyst, (former contract planner with experience of doing EoT claims), starting out and learning the trade would probably be on a average planners rate, (see job page for an idea of that), and then you go up from there to three figure hourly rates for someone who can do the lot.

Insurance - depends on level of cover, (£1m to £5m usual),UK or worldwide, (gets more expensive if you want to cover USA and Canada), but would start at a few hundred pounds and then goes up to several thousand pounds a year for someone who can do the lot worldwide. Experience and qualifications aren’t the only reason for the higher rates!!!!!!!!

Cherie,

I’m sure any agency will have a percentage on top!!!

Rates - depends really what exactly you’re capable of doing, (and insured to do!).

Delay analyst only
Delay analyst and expert witness
Delay analyst and expert witness and contractual/claims advice
Delay analyst and expert witness and contractual/claims advice and legal advice

Or some other combination!!!!!!

A good delay analyst can virtually name their price in London. I was contacted in relation to a forensic planning/delay analysts position recently (18 month contract) and they were willing to pay £600/day. If your friend is still interested, get them to send me the CV and i’ll pass it on to the recruiter (i’ll get a referal fee for this which I am happy to divide fairly)
