An overseas sourcing relationship works best when technical specifications and commercial expectations are documented early. A clear enquiry helps both buyer and supplier assess whether the product range fits the market.
Define the range
Separate tile, stone and wall chasing requirements. Include machine details and the dimensions customers use. Do not assume a factory’s general catalogue covers every proposed material or size.
Agree the sample process
Choose representative applications and record acceptance criteria. Confirm which specification will be used for production, and how a change will be approved.
Plan communication and delivery
Specify quantity, destination, marking and packaging requirements. Confirm lead times and shipment arrangements for the current order.
Agree who answers each question
An overseas order runs more smoothly when technical and delivery questions have clear owners. Keep the contact and latest answer with the quotation.
- Before the sample
- Who confirms the material, dimensions and proposed model?
- After the trial
- Who records approval or requests a revised sample?
- Before production
- Who approves blade marking and packaging?
- Before dispatch
- Who confirms quantity, documents and delivery arrangements?
- After receipt
- Who receives a specification or condition report?
If a detail changes, record the revised answer and the affected reference. Do not assume that an informal message automatically updates the drawing or purchase order.
Keep the useful details together
