The Recommended Schedule of Fees for both “General Engineering and Geoscience Projects” and “Specialized Engineering Projects and Services in the Building Field” are a guideline for both Consultants and Clients.
ACEC-SK believes that Consultants and Clients are responsible for negotiating a fee based upon clear understanding of the project scope, terms of reference, and risk assessment associated with success completing the project.
ACEC-SK recommended a 11% increase in hourly rates for Saskatchewan Consulting Engineering services for 2023. Consideration was given to Fee Guideline trends in other western Canadian jurisdictions, year-over-year provincial Consumer Price Index/increased costs of doing business, as well as the demand our industry is currently experiencing. Information about how a fee is developed is in the updated publication.
