Water testing in Bali: what to ask before you agree

Start with the intended job

Buy an answer to a defined question, rather than a package name. Tell the laboratory whether you are investigating drinking use, a visible change, equipment design or performance after work.

Prepare a property-specific brief

A sample plan should identify the exact outlet, collection method and treatment operating at the time. Ask the laboratory to supply sampling instructions; a bottle chosen at home may not suit the analysis. Retain the original report and ask how its comparison criteria relate to the intended use in Bali.

Questions for the proposal

• Which parameters and methods are included?
• Who collects and transports samples?
• Does the price include interpretation and a written report?
• What questions remain outside this package?

Compare like with like

Compare sample points, parameter lists and interpretation before comparing the total price. Keep the quote date, included work, exclusions and responsibility for follow-up in writing. Ask who handles a change in performance after handover and what evidence they will need.
