Okay, let’s tackle this. So Tony has 16 years of experience in management and project management, which is a solid foundation. He’s also working in a role that involves supply chain, which is a specialized area. Location is Meridian, Mississippi, which is a smaller market. Considering his experience and skills, I’d estimate his rate to be around $75 per hour, which is on the lower side but still reasonable for a smaller market. Some general guidelines for management and project management roles in the US are $50–$100 per hour. However, since Tony has a specific skillset in supply chain, I’ll adjust the rate up slightly to reflect that. Maybe around $75 per hour.
