Free EOT Crane RFQ Template

Do not ask vendors for "best price" before you define the crane properly. Use this RFQ template to collect the minimum details needed for comparable EOT crane quotes.

Built for plant owners, procurement teams, maintenance teams, and project engineers who are buying an EOT crane but do not want to depend only on cost and vendor trust.

What This Helps You Avoid

  • Vendors quoting different assumptions for the same crane.
  • Missing duty, controls, safety, installation, or commissioning scope.
  • Lowest-price quotes that hide exclusions and later cost.
  • FAT/SAT and documentation arguments after the PO is released.

Beginner Rule

First make vendors quote the same scope. Then compare price.

What the Template Covers

This is a buyer-side RFQ starter. It does not replace engineering design, but it makes sure buyers ask the right questions before vendor comparison starts.

Basic Requirement

Usage and Duty

Lifts per shift, shifts per day, expected duty, production criticality, and future load growth.

Controls and Safety

Control mode, VFD/two-speed needs, limit switches, emergency stops, overload protection, and warning devices.

BOM and Makes

Requires vendor disclosure for major makes, datasheets, and substitution approval.

Vendor Scope

Design, manufacturing, freight, erection, commissioning, load testing, exclusions, and deviations.

Acceptance and Handover

FAT, SAT, drawings, O&M manual, spares list, warranty, and service response commitments.
