Company A - $7,713
Company B - $8,800
Company C - $3,008 (Awarded)
Company D - $4,000

Company C seems like a relatively new-comer to the local arboriculture and landscaping scene and  claimed to be doing business since 2005. Winner had bidded 25% lower than the second lowest bidder.

Quotation No.: HDB000ETQ18300057

Quotation for ISA certified arborist consultancy services at demolition site at Bedok South Avenue 3

Company A - $12,000
Company B - $3,897 (Awarded)
Company C - $8,800
Company D - $4,500
Company E -  $12,500
Company F -  $8,155

Winner's price was 13% lower than the second lowest bidder, who in turn is about half that of the median price. More newcomers are bidding than the established ones. Surprisingly, one of the company who was under-pricing everyone not long ago is now at the median.

Quotation No.: HDB000ETQ18300004

Quotation for ISA certified arborist consultancy services for demolition of industrial blocks at Sin Ming Industrial Estate

Company A - $4,998 (Awarded)
Company B - $13,500

Winner's price was 63% lower than the other company. This job seemed as good as any, but strangely there was only two bidders.

Quotation No.: HDB000ETQ18300097

QUOTATION FOR ISA CERTIFIED ARBORIST CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR THE PROPOSED TOA PAYOH NEIGHBOURHOOD 1 CONTRACT 25/25A AND PARK


Company A - $4,200
Company B - $7,430
Company C - $4,200 (Awarded)
Company D - $4,650
Company E -  $8,205

Winner's price was  10% lower than the second lowest bidder. Company C was the same company in Quotation No.: HDB000ETQ18300071, and was also the awarded company. As a relative new-comer to the scene and/or Gebiz bidding circle (for arborist), they managed to win over Company A, which was bidding at the same price and seemed to be more established in the industry.
