VALIDITY
Unless otherwise stated, quotations are valid for a period of thirty (30) days from date of issue.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)
All prices quoted are exclusive of GST.
CURRENCY EXCHANGE
Prices quoted for imported goods are calculated using the exchange rate at the time of the quote. These prices will be adjusted subject to variations in the exchange rate at the time of invoice.
SURVEY FEE*
Considerable time can be spent providing a quotation for repair and/or calibration work. A Survey Fee will be charged for this service if the quotation is rejected; or where it is recommended that an instrument is replaced, and the replacement instrument is not purchased from TRIO Smartcal.
SUPPLEMENTARY FEE*
A Supplementary Fee will be charged for Calibration Work that cannot be completed due to a fault or faults associated with the instrument being calibrated; or for additional work (not included in the original quote) required to be carried out in order to complete the calibration.
FIRM PRICE QUOTE (FOR SERVICE)
This price is the expected final charge for performing work outlined under ‘Service Required’, however, should any additional work be required as a result of faults which were not apparent during the initial survey then TRIO Smartcal shall stop work and provide a revised quotation. Any work performed up to that stage shall be chargeable.
STANDARD PRICE CALIBRATIONS
Standard Calibration includes the required manual adjustments (where procedures are available), Data Reports and Traceable Calibration Certificates where applicable.
NATA ACCREDITED CALIBRATIONS
NATA Accredited calibrations are available on selected products and will be issued inclusive of a NATA endorsed report.
OBSOLETE PRODUCTS
Products deemed obsolete by the original manufacturer may not be repairable due to the availability of parts. In such cases where the repair cannot be completed the repair charges may be limited to the Survey Fee.
SUBCONTRACTING
TRIO Smartcal may at its discretion use appropriately certified calibration houses or alternate repair centres to calibrate and/or repair test instruments which are either outside its present capability or to meet the customer’s special requirements. The service provided by the subcontractor, in relation to that service, shall discharge the obligations of TRIO Smartcal to the customer under this agreement.
NATA Calibration – certain tests outside our NATA accreditation may be subcontracted to accredited labs which have been assessed by TRIO Smartcal Pty Ltd as suitable to carry out those tests.
PRIORITY TURN AROUND
Priority turn around calibration services are available but must be confirmed prior to TRIO Smartcal accepting the job. Extra cost will apply to such work.
