The buyer’s requirements
Your crew and costs

Figures stay on this device. Leave a buyer staffing field blank for an unspecified requirement.

How the example works

Two people working eight hours each account for 16 paid staff-hours. If supplies cost €18 per day, that adds €1.13 to each staff-hour after rounding. Divide the €24.63 hourly cost by 0.88 for a 12% margin. The result is €27.99.

The figures describe a fictional contract. Use the terms in your buyer’s current tender documents and your own costs. You can save this page in your browser and use the checker offline.
