We have a BoQ in the subcontract where one type of marker post is missing. We have asked to price up the missing posts and subcontractor priced it all up using subcontract day rates (labour, plant and materials), which turns out that cost per post is 5 times higher than a similar type post cost in the BoQs.
Can the subcontractor do that and do we have any leg to stand on in asking to revise the quotation as the cost is excessive in comparison to similar types of posts? What are my options in trying to bring the cost down?
