We do not establish consultant fees without written verification of salaries or other consultant agreements for the fee that is being proposed. I could not find an old agreement with you that would establish a past fee. I would probably base your fee on the salary that you are receiving at your University however I will need the salary information in writing to be valid. In addition I need a letter from you that addresses the five items below: 1. A statement as to whether you will require a daily fee. If you require a daily fee, indicate the amount you propose. Please include at least two forms of supporting documentation, such as copies of other consulting contracts confirming the proposed daily fee, a breakdown of the cost elements you used to calculate your daily fee, and/or verification of your current annual salary. I will use the information you provide to establish fair and reasonableness of your proposed fee. Please indicate whether you will require reimbursement for travel and related expenses. 2. A statement that the proposed fee is no higher than that charged to others for similar services. 3. A statement that the terms and conditions of the documents previously sent are acceptable. 4. A current resume or curriculum vitae. 5. An Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) disclosure statement (previously sent). Please return the signature page with your proposal letter. When I receive your letter either via e-mail, or fax (505-667-6330), or by US Mail, I will proceed with your consultant agreement. Until then I cannot proceed any further.
