Design basis
Record wind speed, ground snow load and seismic criteria with the originating project document. The local engineer sets the design basis and the shortlisted supplier confirms the assumptions it priced.
We coordinate supplier matching, quotation comparison, sample review, third-party inspection, consolidation and export handoff in China. Each service uses the same RFQ revision so a price change can be traced to its scope.

Split MEP preinstallation from site connection in the quote matrix. An installed electrical panel and a panel commissioned under the destination rules are separate deliverables with separate responsible parties.
For a first-unit review, coordinate access and a checklist with the buyer's chosen inspector. Record the module serial number, drawing revision and photo evidence before asking the supplier to address discrepancies.
Each step produces a document for the next reviewer. Keep unresolved items marked open when sharing the shortlist so a provisional supplier assumption cannot be mistaken for a buyer decision.
Log occupancy, count, module envelope and delivery route. A dimensional quote should separate the external transport footprint from the internal clear space.
Give each bidder the same joint and service-zone schedule. Capture differences in wall panel core, steel grade and coating mass beside the equivalent line on competing offers.
When samples are in scope, record the proposed seal, fastener and panel options together. Compare sample identification with the later inspection checklist to flag substitutions.
Ask for container loading diagrams, gross package mass and responsibility for blocking and bracing. Shipment consolidation depends on pack dimensions and the carrier's booking limits.
Match invoices and packing lists by package mark and confirm which commercial party provides export and destination documents under the agreed shipment terms.
A shell quote and a fit-out quote are comparable after fixtures, utility connections, seals and site works are assigned. Ask the supplier to price any optional scope separately and name the party responsible for field acceptance.
Send a preliminary brief with the latest available drawings. We can identify which line items need a supplier answer, a carrier check or input from the local design team before a quotation is treated as firm.
