How Drawing Review and Quotation Work

This page separates what buyers can do now from the controlled steps that begin only after an accountable human reviewer and approved manufacturing route are assigned. It does not promise that a project will be accepted.

1. Prepare a Non-Confidential Project Brief

Record the part family, material, quantities, quality requirements, destination, company identity and civil commercial end use. Keep drawings and models in your approved system until a transfer route is confirmed.

2. Complete Qualification

Missing dimensions, conflicting versions, undefined interfaces, restricted data and incomplete end-use information are returned as numbered questions.

3. Review Process and Inspection

An appropriate manufacturing source evaluates process sequence, secondary operations, critical measurement and current capacity. DFM observations do not transfer design authority from the customer.

4. Issue a Conditional Quotation

If a route is accepted, the quotation should identify scope, assumptions, exclusions, documentation, commercial terms and dependencies. No site-wide price or lead-time promise applies.

5. Agree Sample and Release Requirements

Define first-article or sample review, inspection records, approval responsibility and the conditions for production release.

6. Control Changes and Reorders

Drawing revisions, material or process changes, nonconformities and repeat orders require controlled records and the agreed notification path.

Prepare the package with the RFQ checklist, then check the current status at the RFQ preparation gate. Do not send controlled files until that page confirms intake is operational.
