had a call about a lighting maintenance contract in a grocery store. they want us to visit quarterly and repair any damaged lights.
never been asked this before so i'm unfamiliar with how to reach a price.
anyone involved with this have tips i can use?
all i've come up with is figuring 3 hours labor each quarter for ballast and lamp replacement (less than 60 fixtures; 96" strips); i figured we might end up replacing lamps on 2-3 fixtures and possibly a ballast. so looking at a total of 12 hrs per year, 4 trip charges divided by 12 and thats how i came up w/ the monthly service agreement price. parts would be billed separately @ normal markup.
does this sound correct?
i haven't given the customer the price yet but told them we would have to fix every fixture currently out of order to do the service agreement, which is about 25 of them.
