Due diligence consulting fee

by a searcher from University of Southern California

2 years ago

A private equity firm I have a relationship with would like to engage me on a consulting basis to support their due diligence on sizable lower middle market acquisitions. Scope would include evaluating financial information, building financial models, etc. Anybody know what the going hourly rate is for that type of consulting? Hoping to ground my fee quote in some type of market data.

Is there anyway they would be interested in bringing you on for equity in exchange for a slightly reduced fee?

When I was in a mid size consulting firm I was billed out at $###-###-#### an hour for transaction advisory work. Depends on your experience and qualifications but can vary. Big 4 charges substantially more and local firms significantly less
