FreeLists / webproducers / [webproducers] Web Development Shops and Interactive Agency rates?

[Michael Pinto <michaeljamespinto@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to get a better idea what rates web development shops and interactive 
agencies charge
these days. With the fall of large firms like Rare Medium and smaller ones like 
Dennis Interactive
I can only guess that prices have come down over the last year, but I'm not 
sure by how much.
Specifically I'm thinking of shops that have a Manhattan overhead and employee 
between 10 and 100
people. So I'd like to know the range of rates that shops are charging for:

- Strategic Analysis
- System Design/Technical Specifications
- Art Direction/Creative Specification
- Interface Design/Functional Specifications
- Writing Object Oriented Code (Mod Perl, Java)
- Writing Scripting Language Code (ASP, JSP, Cold Fusion and Javascript)
- Writing Gourmet HTML (i.e. writing with a program like BBedit and the pages 
run and looks great
on many browsers)
- Producing WYSIWYG HTML (i.e. Dreamweaver)
- Graphic Design & Screen Layout
- Quality Assurance/Testing
- Writing Technical Documentation

Are companies charging for project management or do they roll those costs into 
their overhead?

Many thanks,

Michael
