IEEE-USA Consultants Profile eBooks
As a consultant is preparing a proposal or negotiating a contract, one of the primary concerns is deciding how much to charge. To establish a fixed price or a fee that is both competitive and fair, the consultant needs to know what other consultants working in similar fields charge. In response to this need, the Alliance of IEEE Consultants Networks (AICN) conducts national fee surveys of its members. Completed in late 2006, this survey is the AICN's fourth nationwide survey.  Download eBook
