(I'm sure that Dilbert and User Friendly factor in there also, heh.) The interesting thing you find when you run these numbers on a large group of people, is that it doesn't really matter how long the work week is, it could be 50 hours, but for some reason it's hard to get more than 28 hours/week out of people. There are always exceptions, but that works both ways! <g> The ony time you can inflate this number is when you have your people working on jobs spanning several months, then at the end of the week they can say "Time spent on client A: 40 hours". If you have nothing but lots of big jobs you can approach 100% billable, likewise if you have nothing but a bunch of tiny jobs, billable hours can drop to 20-30%, even though it seems everyone is working hard. (The time inbetween jobs is pretty much constant.) Your pal, -doc- [url=http://www.ozones.com/] [img]http://www.ozoneasylum.com/examples/ozoneSIGc.gif[/img] [/url] Loading...
