The best thing to do is for your colleague is to develop an RFP and to issue
it. Just asking for the consultants fee does not do much. For example;
Does the consultant's fee include travel and expenses aka T&E or is it just
the fee and the institution also pays for T&E?
How about materials for the project. Will the organization provide the
materials or will the consultant?
how many boxes of material are there?
How many years experience is required for the project?
