Can you provide a line-by-line breakdown for construction, site costs, contingency, labour, and materials?
highA detailed breakdown makes it easier to compare the quote against market expectations and detect inflated categories.
Which items are fixed price, which are provisional sums, and which may become variations?
highThis helps the customer understand where the final cost may increase after acceptance.
Are approvals, engineering, inspections, waste removal, and GST included?
mediumMissing compliance or site-related items can make a quote appear cheaper than it really is.
Cost breakdown provided
The quote should clearly separate construction, site costs, contingency, and key allowance categories.
Scope inclusions confirmed
Major inclusions should be written clearly before the quote is accepted.
Variation risk understood
The customer should confirm which items could change price during the project.
Quote is within realistic market range
The quote appears close enough to benchmark range to continue, but several items require clarification.
Final Recommendation
The quote appears suitable for further discussion, but the customer should not accept it until scope, provisional sums, site costs, and variation risks are clearly explained.
