Is Your Cooling Tower Quote Actually Complete?

Before approving your next cooling tower repair, rebuild, inspection, or upgrade project, make sure the quote includes more than just the final price.

A low number upfront can look attractive, but missing scope, unclear assumptions, excluded work, or overlooked site conditions can lead to costly change orders once the project begins.

That is why OBR created the Cooling Tower Quote Diligence™ Checklist.

Use this checklist to review key quote details before signing off, so your team can compare proposals more confidently and reduce the risk of unexpected costs.

 

 

Why Quote Diligence Matters

Not all cooling tower quotes are built the same. Two proposals may look similar on price, but the scope behind them can be very different.

This checklist gives facility teams, engineers, and procurement groups a practical way to spot missing details before work begins.

Make sure your next cooling tower quote is complete, clear, and easier to compare.
