Evidence map
Separate buyer inputs from supplier confirmations
A useful sourcing file shows what is already defined and what remains open. Public product-family references can guide questions, but only the quoted factory can confirm an exact model.
| Buyer provides | Supplier must confirm for the offered model |
|---|---|
| Intended sales channel or facility use | Massage track and mechanism configuration |
| Quantity by variant and purchasing unit | Chair dimensions, user-fit range and carton dimensions |
| US destination and requested delivery basis | Recline, zero-gravity, heat and air-compression scope |
| Required packaging, manuals and label language | Power input, controller, assembly, accessories and exclusions |
Buyer roles
Different channels need different chair evidence
Retail purchasing teams
Clarify footprint, upholstery options, control presentation, assembly burden, merchandising assets and packaging durability for the intended sales channel.
Institutional buyers
State room access, doorway and elevator constraints, power availability, cleaning expectations, user supervision and the party responsible for suitability review.
Quote questions
Questions before submission and after quotation
Before submitting the brief
What configuration should be named?
Describe the requested track or mechanism, recline functions, heating or air-compression scope, upholstery direction, controller, voltage and intended user-fit parameters. Mark unresolved items rather than guessing.
How should quantity be written?
Use pieces or another explicit unit, broken down by configuration and color. State whether the number is a trial, launch or repeat-order estimate and identify the US destination.
After receiving quotations
Can two prices be compared immediately?
Only after model scope, included functions, accessories, packaging, quantity unit, currency, delivery basis and exclusions are aligned. A lower figure may represent a materially different chair.
What documents prove suitability?
Ask for exact-product manuals, labels, test reports or declarations relevant to the destination and intended claims. The buyer and qualified advisers decide what evidence is sufficient.
