Number of devices per engineer

Subject: Number of devices per engineer

I am looking at a strategy review for the take on of a number of firewalls and 
am looking for industry recognised figures for the number of firewalls one 
engineer can manage. I was previously told 1 analyst can monitor 90 FW's while 
an administrator can manage 150. This seems to me to be a very arbirary figure 
as this is depending on the amount of change activity performed on each 
firewall/monitoring technology/type of platform etc. Does any one know of 
industry figures along with the criteria associated with each figure?

Thanks
Dom.
