Quotes

All three builders who were invited to tender came back with quotes. They're in the general ballpark of what we were expecting, though slightly higher than we would have wished for, with about 10% of a difference between the highest and lowest. We haven't sat down with the detailed bills of quantities yet to determine exactly what each one is quoting for, but we're due to get the documents today so will be doing this soon.

More anon.

Surely quotations. No?

Nope - "quote" is stating a price, "quotation", refers more to naming / publishing such a price.

In practice, either is probably acceptable, but "quote" is more usual.
