Overview

This free Google Docs template gives a contractor a construction project proposal that a sponsor can approve, amend or reject without a follow-up meeting. It opens with the decision sought, then sets out the site and scope, the method statement, the program, the health and safety rules, the price and the exclusions. Every claim is tied to a number or a named source.

The sample is a refurbishment proposal from Rookwood Partners, a fictional contractor, to Eastgate Housing, a fictional client, for a second phase of 62 flats. Its figures, dates and people are invented. Replace the decision, scope and price with your own, and check each survey figure and method step before the proposal is sent.

Useful for

  • A contractor asking a housing client to approve a refurbishment phase
  • A bid team proposing a repair program to a public body
  • A sponsor comparing two construction routes before a funding decision

Questions

Should the price be fixed or estimated?

Fix the price for the scope you have surveyed, and state clearly what is excluded and how any variation is priced. An estimate with no exclusions is hard to approve and easy to dispute.

Are Rookwood Partners and Eastgate Housing real?

No. Rookwood Partners, Eastgate Housing, the people, figures, survey results and dates are fictional sample data. Replace them with your own details before you submit the proposal.

How long should the proposal be valid?

Thirty days is common, long enough for the sponsor to decide and short enough that material prices do not drift. State the validity date on the cover and in the price section.
