Build your quote in DraftYourBid
Describe the project scope on the Quote page. DraftYourBid generates an itemised, professional quote with your pricing structure in under 2 minutes.
Share with your client and generate a contract on sign-off
Send the quote to your client for approval. When they accept, DraftYourBid can generate a matching contract automatically — no extra work needed.
Organise by phase or workstream rather than a single total — it shows how the work is structured and makes budget approval easier.
Show day rates and estimated days per phase separately, not just a lump sum — procurement teams expect this level of detail.
Specify an expenses policy upfront: what is billable (travel, accommodation) and what is absorbed.
Include milestone-based invoicing: tie payment triggers to deliverable completion, not calendar dates.
State a validity period — day rates may change if the project is delayed beyond 60–90 days.
How should I set consultant day rates?
Base your day rate on your seniority, sector specialisation, and market rates. Premium rates are justified by sector expertise and proven results.
Should a consulting quote be broken down by phase?
Yes. Phase-based breakdowns make it easier for clients to approve in stages and simplify budget allocation across financial quarters.
