The important component is experience! There is a variety of experiences within the consulting community and this can influence the price.
How much does a call centre health check cost?
The amount of time a consultant spends onsite as well as writing the report(s) and conducting the analysis will ultimately impact the price. And typically, but not always, the more experienced consultants charge more - but they can typically identify issues and solutions much quicker.
