Tender estimating in Perth
Tendr prices commercial landscape tenders for Perth subcontractors: quantity takeoff from the drawings, bill of quantities priced to your own rates, and the submission package. We work remotely from the drawings, so the two-hour time difference to the eastern states is scheduling, not a constraint. Fixed fee per tender, quoted up front.
What we price
Five services, all priced per tender and all against your own rates: quantity takeoff, priced bill of quantities, tender submission, scope and contract review and variation pricing. Take one or take the lot. If you only want the measured quantities and intend to price them yourself, that is a common request and the fee drops accordingly. The services pages set out what each one covers and how the fixed fee works.
What is different about pricing a Perth package
State work comes through Tenders WA, with local government and private commercial work through the builders. Where a pricing schedule is issued in the builder's format, we complete it in that format rather than handing back something they have to re-key.
Perth's sands change the shape of a landscape price. Excavation is generally easier than it would be on eastern-states clay, but free-draining sand shifts the cost into soil amendment, water retention and irrigation, and into an establishment period that will not forgive an under-specified system. The savings and the costs sit in different lines to the ones a Melbourne or Adelaide package would flag.
The time difference matters for one thing only: when a tight closing date is involved, we confirm on the call whether we can hit it in your working hours, not ours. Everything else about the process is identical, because the measuring is done from the drawings.
Frequently asked questions
Does the time difference affect turnaround?
Only in scheduling. We confirm the turnaround date alongside the fixed fee before you commit, and if a closing date is tight we tell you on the call whether we can hit it.
Are you based in Perth?
No. We are based in Melbourne and work Australia-wide. The takeoff is measured from the drawings, so the location of the project does not change how the work is done or what it costs.
Does sandy ground make a package cheaper to price?
The fee depends on the size of the drawing set and the number of trades in scope, not the ground. What changes is where the cost sits in your rates: less in excavation, more in soil amendment and irrigation.
