With everyone still feeling the pinch of the recession, winning those important PAT testing jobs is more important than ever. It can be very difficult to work out how much you should quote for each individual job and with prices per test said to be ranging from 60p to £3.00 per test how low can you afford to go?
Many firms have a fixed pricing scheme; this is where the cost for the job will be a fixed cost per item plus a site fee. Although a fixed pricing scheme is often easier for a customer to understand, it can often lack the versatility to adapt to make each job as cost effective as possible.
Our PAT testing margin calculator allows for each job to be correctly priced so you can offer competitive quotes and still make a healthy profit.
This calculator can also be used for quoting most electrical works.
