I have only been trading 12 months and upto now I have not taken on any contract work or anything of substantial size.
Last week I got an invite to tender from a medium sized construction company on a church refit. After viewing the site and having a meeting with the project manager I know I have the capacity to take on the work and I have started to prepare my quote. I am bidding against two other contractors of whome I do not know a lot about.
Any help would be appreciated on how to present my quote to the Quantity Surveyor at the construction company as it will be him that makes the decision on who to hire.
I understand the lowest quote is not always the way forward and that a correctly presented quote with content can go a long way with a QS.
I have a few ideas on the presentation of the quote these been:
section 1 - table of contents
section 2 - Description of the quote ie materials to be used, manufacturer of materials, installation methods etc personel qualifications ie JIB registered men etc etc a breakdown of the quote in 1st fix and 2nd fix terms & conditions.
section 3 - submit drawings showing circuit numbers etc and circuit schedules for DB`s
section 4 - copies of insurance certificates
section 5 - Governing body certificate (NAPIT) and some of the 'bumf' to go with it.
section 6 - Risk assessments & Health and safety statement
This is a could be a critical turning point for my small business and would appreciate as much info/help as possible.
Thanks in advance
