Lee - we charge £36 +VAT/hour, with a minimum of £50 +VAT (the CC won't
invoice for less than this) but I don't charge for most of these upland
surveys as the majority come from partner organisations/non-commercials/too
small to bother with.

They do all want results yesterday though ...

I would like to gather some opinions from those of you who regularly do SMR
searches for DEFRA Upland Surveys.

I have had a VERY large last minute (typical!) request come in that will
involve
more than just an hour of my time - more like half a day or more depending
on
whether I can draft in a colleague to help.  Now my dilema is that we
typically
charge a flat fee of £50 ex VAT for these searches.  But most searches only
have
a few SMR points and so only require the standard hour or so of my time to
produce maps, print the SMR data and provide some interpretation and
comments.
In your experience(s) would you charge extra for the large amount of time
and
work this one will require? How much - at an hourly rate?
