EPCM contractors' profit

[TorinoSG]

Good day!
Is there any information about average profit, which gets an EPCM contractor for his actions? (in percent to capital investment)
I saw different numbers: from 2% to 15%
What does it depend from?
And what does it consist of?

Thank you!

It varies from place to place and industry, I might dare to affirm. In my neck of the woods they are paid hourly. We do mostly 'cookie cutter' projects so they got a big chunk initially and very little from there on. Until we decided to improve our designs.

unotec thank you for your answer.
My industry is hydro- and thermal power construction.
Have you got some ideas about values of profit in this area?

Not a clue, I'm O&G

unotec what percent is in your industry?

As I mentioned, it is by hourly. If I calculate it back in a few of the projects I have turns out to be about 5-8%, but we don't do the full blown EPCM (I like to control the procurement and running the project myself); on the 'cookie cutters' it is about 1% only, so I guess it falls between what you have heard. I guess it will depend on how much of the EPCM goes to the contracto and how much is done in-house.
