Product information
Who supplies and approves specifications, packing data and product identification?
Product file · commercial file · shipment file
Furniture sourcing for importers needs one traceable handoff from RFQ to shipment
Centralize supplier communication, distinguish product facts from commercial assumptions and agree who prepares, checks and receives each export or destination-market document.
Send an importer briefCONTROL POINT 01
Can every quoted line be traced to the same SKU specification?
CONTROL POINT 02
Are document and shipment responsibilities assigned before release?
CONTROL POINT 03
Does each test or certificate apply to the selected product and market?
Comparable quotation set
Align product and commercial conditions before comparing suppliers
| Control file | Required inputs | Importer's decision |
|---|---|---|
| SKU specification | Reference, drawing, material, finish, hardware and packaging | Approve the basis being quoted |
| Commercial conditions | Quantity, destination, trade requirements and requested timing | Confirm a comparable commercial scope |
| Revision register | Requested changes and current approved version | Release one version for order preparation |
Use the wholesale sourcing execution page for the detailed RFQ, sample and order-file workflow.
Responsibility matrix
Assign the owner, verifier and recipient for every handoff
Exact document sets depend on the product, transaction and destination. The working principle is to avoid treating “export support” as an undefined promise.
Commercial documents
Which documents are required and who checks their order alignment?
Shipment preparation
Who confirms marks, loading information, booking inputs and handoff point?
Destination compliance
Who identifies market requirements and verifies supporting evidence?
Evidence check
A document is useful only when its scope matches
For any test report, certification or environmental document, verify the issuing or holding subject, relevant product, model or material, validity and intended destination-market use. Manufacturing-resource documents are not blanket coverage for the full range.
Review documentation and certification questions →First order vs repeat order
The second order still needs a version check
First import
Establish the SKU file, commercial baseline, packaging, document set and responsibility map.
Repeat import
Confirm model, finish, packaging and document version before assuming the previous order applies unchanged.
