The last few consulting projects I did were for a company looking to cut costs using technology. They hired me for 3 projects: 1. Cost/Benefits Analysis for switching to Angel/Salesforce and VOIP 2. Vetting outsourcing/offshoring companies for data entry/low-level programming work 3. Budget forecasting for computerizing data collection processes In each case, I didn't have to actually complete the technical work, just know how much it would cost and who to hire to actually do the work. I was paid a flat fee plus a percentage of the cost savings realized.
