If the Contractor's quotation is unreasonable Clause Samples

This clause allows the client or principal to challenge and reject a contractor's quotation if it is deemed unreasonable, typically in terms of price or scope. In practice, this means that if the contractor submits a cost estimate or proposal that is significantly higher or lower than market rates or not aligned with the project's requirements, the client can request a revision or seek alternative quotations. The core function of this clause is to protect the client from unfair or inflated pricing, ensuring that project costs remain justifiable and competitive.
If the Contractor's quotation is unreasonable the Project Manager may order the Variation and make a change to the Contract Price, which shall be based on the Project Manager's own forecast of the effects of the Variation on the Contractor's costs.
