Why does the cheapest UR5e quote have the most blanks?

Carton-cell quotes disagree on fixture, guarding and training scope. Unknown costs currently add zero. That can't stand.

Mark them unpriced and keep them outside any supposedly complete ranking. Give both suppliers the same scope. Where a budget allowance is useful, state its basis and who needs to replace it with an actual proposal.

One supplier excludes training. The other lists it without shifts or attendance. I've asked both to clarify.

Does the scope include maintenance handover and support after the trainer leaves?

Added both. Restoration of the configuration belongs there too; the current handover line doesn't mention it.

Keep that as an outstanding supplier answer, not merely a checked box in your own spreadsheet. A common request makes the proposals comparable only after the suppliers answer it.

Who owns each unpriced item while you wait? Otherwise the same blank can return next week.
