Once upon a time the percent fee was the standard. The AIA said so. Then the Department of Justice sued the AIA to eliminate price-fixing, and all the standard fee scheduled were destroyed (or at least filed discretely away). Today it is hard to imagine that it was a problem, and it probably wasn't. But then, you know government always does what is best for us. In any event the tables have turned, and now it is government that is dictating fees. In case you have never seen one here is a table of fees based on a percentage of construction cost.

You make no distinction between building categories, such as warehouse, dormitory, library, chancellery/embassy, etc., nor for level of complexity, such as simple, normal and highly complex. There's a hell of a lot more than construction cost that makes the clock tick at the drafting board.
