After taking a ride in my neighbor's Lotus Exige the other night, I decided we needed a sports car of our own. We took a ride down to the local hobby shop after having some wings for lunch. It was Sunday, and Applebees was empty as most of crowd was probably home watching NASCAR or something. After $35.27 we purchased a 1/24 scale model of an Enzo Ferrari. You can even buy one online @ http://www.revell.com/catalog/products/1_24_Scale_Enzo_Ferrari-492-6.html . We got this thing home and opened the box and said "Oh my god!" Hundreds of small parts and lots of painting. At least my son was excited. Needless to say, I thought about calling some consultant friends of mine to help put this beautiful model together. After some preliminary calculations, we came up with the following:
100 Consultants Need for the Project
50 to Establish a Project Management Office
15 to interpret the building instructions
5 to actually build the thing
30 to complete purchase orders, bill of goods, and billable hours charged
Estimated cost of around $1.2-$1.5 for 6 weeks of work.
At that point I realized I could probably buy 2 real Ferrari's for the same cost. We'll keep you posted on the project. Enjoy :-)
