RFQ GUIDE

How to Prepare a Successful RFQ

Complete packages get faster, more accurate quotes. Include these four inputs before you send drawings.

Drawings

2D drawing or 3D model with dimensional and tolerance callouts. Mark critical features clearly so engineering can quote without guesswork.

Material

Specify the grade. If unsure, describe the application and we can recommend options.

Quantity

Estimated annual volume and batch size. Note prototype or sample needs when relevant.

Finish & Inspection

Surface finish, treatment, and any special inspection or release documentation.
