Hourly Rates
Administrative services rate. We propose charging the same hourly rate across all technologies and programs for administrative services, such as creating custom reports and replacement certificates. As a result, the fees in some technologies would increase by more than 7% while others would be reduced.

Professional services rate. We propose increasing the existing professional services rate for the Alternative Safety Approaches program by the general increase, and the rate for the compliance & enforcement program to match the safety services rate. Additionally, we propose charging the same hourly rate across all technologies for professional services, such as custom services by senior safety officers.
