The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) does not hold this information centrally although we believe the majority of our consultancy assignments to be paid at a daily rate. BEIS consultancy service requirements are sourced normally via the Crown Commercial Service ConsultancyOne framework which provides for charging based upon discounted supplier day rates.
