Hey All,
My previous employer has not been able to backfill the position I left and a
network guy has been stuck with my previous work. He hates it and is looking
to get out of the extra work. I have been doing mods and map updates on an as
needed basis, but it appears they are looking for something a little more long
term.
So my question for the gurus out there is around providing contract support and
how you have structured it and how well it worked out for you. I do work for
another (non-competing) company in a full time role, so this would be in
addition to my regular work.
I was thinking about a 3 month contract to start and going from there. The
contract would include:
$XXX/month flat rate for up to 15-hours/week of day-to-day EDI work such as
fine resolution (checking for missing ASNs), Sales order corrections (bad item
#s), partner communication, invoice/ASN error resolution...basically all the
day-today EDI junk that happens.
Additional support for $XX/hr
$XX/hour Web application development/modification, mapping and new trading
partner work.
Where the XX hourly rate is twice the hourly rate of the monthly fee is 15
hours are worked.
I currenly charge the $XX/hour for the contract work I do for them.
Most of the support work I would do can be done in the 15 hour/week time frame.
Am I crazy...is this reasonable? It is certainly much less than they paid me
before, but if I worked a full 40hr week, it would be much more than I made
working for them.
Thanks for the feedback!
