Typical RFQ Inputs We Need

✓
STEP or IGES file
Provides the 3D geometry needed for manufacturability review and process screening.
✓
2D PDF drawing with CTQ callouts
Defines revision-controlled dimensions, datums, tolerances, and critical features.
✓
Target material grade
Confirms resin or alloy selection, reinforcement, hardness, and finish compatibility.
✓
Annual volume and launch stage
Helps determine whether the best-fit route is prototype, bridge production, or repeat production.
✓
Finish requirements
Identifies coating, texture, cosmetic standard, deburr level, or surface treatment expectations.
✓
Document package expectations
Specify whether you need CMM reports, FAI, PPAP, CoC, or raw-material certification.
RFQ Input Why It Matters Risk If Missing
STEP / IGES Data Supports geometry review, manufacturability assessment, and early process selection. Hidden feature risk, incomplete quote assumptions, or delayed technical review.
2D Drawing / CTQ Defines revision status, tolerance requirements, datum strategy, and inspection scope. Unclear feature priority, misaligned inspection method, or quote-to-build mismatch.
Material Grade Ensures the process route, tooling logic, finish compatibility, and cert requirements are correct. Wrong resin/alloy assumptions, cost drift, or unsuitable production route.
Annual Volume Helps align prototype, pilot, and production planning with the correct tooling or routing level. Overbuilt tooling, underplanned capacity, or incorrect quoting logic.
Finish Demands Clarifies cosmetic, functional, and post-process expectations before quote release. Late-stage rework, underestimated cost, or surface requirement mismatch.
Document Package Aligns quote scope with FAI, PPAP, CoC, CMM reporting, and raw-material cert needs. Approval delay, missing deliverables, or resubmission before shipment release.
Screening logic: A complete RFQ package typically includes STEP or IGES data, a 2D PDF drawing with CTQ callouts, target material grade, annual volume, finish requirements, and document expectations such as FAI, PPAP, CoC, or raw-material certification. Missing datum strategy or undefined CTQ features are flagged before quotation.

Supplier Validation Scope

Validation Deliverables by Program Type

Buyers working with a China CNC machining manufacturer often define document scope before release, including CMM reports, FAI records, PPAP elements, and material certificates.
Validation requirements vary by industry, submission level, and part risk. Prototype jobs may only require dimensional reports and material certificates, while production programs may require CMM reports, traceable lots, FAI records, PPAP submission elements, and drawing-revision control tied to the approved release package.

How Validation Scope Is Defined

✓
Prototype jobs
Typically focused on dimensional confirmation, material verification, and early fit/function review before scaling or tooling commitment.
✓
Pilot or bridge production
May require structured inspection records, traceable part lots, and controlled revision release for process stabilization before repeat supply.
✓
Production programs
Often require CMM reports, FAI records, PPAP Level 1–3 elements, CoC, and raw-material certificates based on customer submission requirements.
✓
Industry-specific risk
Automotive, medical-device, and tight-tolerance industrial parts often require deeper documentation alignment before shipment approval.
✓
Drawing-revision control
All deliverables should match the approved drawing revision, CTQ plan, and release package agreed before production starts.
Program Type Typical Deliverables Validation Focus
Prototype Dimensional reports, material certs, basic inspection records Confirm geometry, material, and early fit/function before route scaling
Pilot / Bridge Inspection records, traceable lots, controlled revision release, selected CMM checks Stabilize process window and reduce mismatch before repeat production
Production CMM reports, FAI, PPAP Level 1–3 elements, CoC, raw-material certs Align shipment approval with customer submission requirements and CTQ control
Automotive Program PPAP elements, traceability, material certs, dimensional validation, change control records Support supplier approval, part traceability, and controlled release expectations
Tight-Tolerance Industrial Parts CMM reports, feature-specific inspection records, revision-locked documentation Verify datum-critical features and maintain inspection consistency across lots

Traceability and Revision Control in Release Packages

Revision Locking
All release documents should match the approved drawing revision so inspection, submission, and production handoff stay aligned.
Lot Traceability
Where required, part lots, raw-material heat numbers, and inspection records are linked to support controlled release and repeat supply.
Inspection Linkage
CMM reports, FAI records, PPAP elements, and dimensional results should align with the defined measurement strategy and approved release scope.
Validation logic: The required deliverable package should be defined before production routing is locked. This prevents late-stage approval issues caused by missing CMM scope, incomplete FAI expectations, undefined PPAP level, or documentation that does not match the approved drawing revision. Deliverables are tied to the release package, inspection strategy, and traceability requirements before shipment approval.

Project Screening Boundaries

Programs We Screen Before Quote Release

Some RFQs require clarification, rerouting, or scope confirmation before engineering commitment. These boundaries help prevent quote release against incomplete technical data, undefined document expectations, or requirements outside our declared operating scope.

Process Mismatch

Catalog Sourcing Without Engineering Review

This workflow is built for custom, drawing-driven components that require technical review, validation planning, and controlled production release. It is not intended for off-the-shelf catalog purchasing with no engineering input.

Insufficient Data

Unlocked Drawings or Undefined CTQ Features

Programs without locked technical data are screened before quotation. Missing 2D drawings, undefined CTQ features, or incomplete material specifications are flagged before routing or quote scope is confirmed.

  • 3D CAD model in STEP or IGES format
  • 2D PDF drawing with CTQ callouts
  • Final material grade before release
Compliance Boundary

Requirements Outside Declared Certification Scope

Programs requiring certifications, regulatory controls, or legal handling outside our declared operational scope are not released without prior scope verification. Requirements such as AS9100 or ITAR must be confirmed before engineering commitment.
