For the buyer whose project reaches across several categories and who does not want a separate supplier conversation for every line: several products for one project, bought and coordinated as one order.

This page is about the purchasing behind the goods: which supplier an item comes from, what a new one has to pass, what is held in reserve on the range that sells regularly, and what a quotation for a list of items looks like.

Several suppliers, one order

The service

What sourcing a list means here.

Four decisions sit behind every item on a multi-product order, and all four are taken inside the company rather than left to the buyer.

  • The established chain first

    A routine product requirement is met from suppliers the company has worked with long term and has already verified. That is where purchasing starts every enquiry, and for most of a normal list it is the whole of the sourcing work.

  • A new supplier, only where it is needed

    Where the established chain cannot serve the product — a special product, a new product or a special requirement — a supplier is developed for that project instead. The development is the exception the work allows for, not the default route.

  • Qualified before an important order

    A new supplier does not reach an important order because the price is low. Product capability, samples, quality, the current price, the MOQ, the lead time, responsiveness and cooperation are confirmed first, and an important order keeps a backup supplier where it can.

  • One company on the order

    The purchasing team matches the suppliers, confirms the cost, the MOQ, the samples, the lead time and the supplier risk, and develops a new supplier where one is needed — all of it behind one sales owner. You sign, pay and talk to the company, and the suppliers are managed inside it.

A supplier developed for one project is not a new standard for the next one: the long-standing, already verified supplier stays the first choice, and the new one has to earn its place through the checks above.

How it runs

From a list of items to one quotation.

Four stages. The second is the one a buyer never sees and the one that decides whether the quotation holds.

  1. The list

    The products, the quantity of each, the customisation, what the project is for, the in-hands date and the delivery country. A specification you have already fixed is quoted as it stands; where the brief is open, the product mix is planned with you.

  2. Supplier matching and internal confirmation

    Each item is matched to a supplier. On a routine product, the specification, the quantity, the current lead time and whether the cost has clearly moved are confirmed. On a new product, a special customisation or a multi-product project, the current cost, the MOQ, the process, the packaging, the lead time, the extra charges and whether the supplier can really make the item are confirmed by purchasing or by the own factory.

  3. The quotation

    A list is quoted in two layers: item by item, with the quantity, the unit price, the subtotal, the packaging, the lead time and the shipping information, and then a Total Project Cost for the project as a whole, with A, B and C proposals where the brief is open. The product price and the freight are listed separately, and both are held for 60 days.

  4. One schedule across the suppliers

    However many suppliers sit behind it, the project runs to one quotation, one schedule and one contact: the goods are gathered, checked, counted against the list you approved and packed under one plan, and the shipping is arranged back from the date you gave us.

A long list cannot always be priced in one pass. Where that happens the reply comes as progress instead of silence: what is already confirmed, what is still being verified, and when the complete proposal will follow.

The limits

Where this service draws its line.

Five things worth knowing before a list is handed over, because they are the ones a buyer usually discovers halfway through.

  • A new supplier is never taken on price alone. Product capability, samples, quality, the current price, the MOQ, the lead time, responsiveness and cooperation are confirmed before it is used, and it does not go straight onto an important order.
  • Price is the fifth thing a supplier is judged on here, after quality, service, lead time and stability, and the lowest price is not the only standard a supplier is chosen on.
  • No spare supplier is held in advance for a special, low-frequency product: the two-supplier rule covers what sells regularly, and a special item is developed when a project actually needs it.
  • Where an item needs a supplier developed for it, the checks come before the commitment. A firm price and a firm date for that item follow the verification rather than precede it, and we will say so rather than price it optimistically.
  • You contract with one company rather than with the factories behind it. The own production and the outside suppliers are managed inside that company, and the supplier conversations are ours to have, not yours.

What we need from you

What a quotation for a list is built on.

The same six facts as a single-item enquiry, given item by item where the list has several. Everything else is work this side of the desk.

What to send with the enquiry

Where one of them is not settled yet, say so and the sourcing starts from what you have rather than waiting for the rest.

  • The products, or the occasion if the list is still open
  • The quantity, per item
  • Your customisation requirements
  • The use and the project background: what the goods are for and where they go
  • The date the goods have to be in your hands
  • The delivery country or region

What is confirmed before the quotation

An estimate is given when it helps you; a quotation is issued on checked figures. This is what stands between the two.

  • On a routine product: that the specification, the quantity and the current lead time still stand, and whether the cost has clearly moved since it was last confirmed.
  • On a new product, a special customisation or a multi-product project: the current cost, the MOQ, the process, the packaging, the lead time and any extra charges, item by item.
  • Whether the supplier can really make the item, which purchasing or the own factory confirms rather than assuming from a catalogue.
  • The line between the two: a sales estimate stays an estimate, and a formal quotation rests on confirmed cost and delivery conditions.

Questions buyers ask

The questions a multi-product enquiry starts with.

Answered the way they would be answered by email, with the purchasing position left in. A native disclosure, so each answer opens on its own and no script is needed.

  • Can you source a product that is not in your usual range?

    Usually — that is what the smaller share of the work is. Most routine product requirements are met from suppliers the company already works with, and a special product, a new product or a special requirement may need a supplier developed for the project. Send the item and the specification, and the first answer is whether the existing chain can serve it or whether a supplier has to be developed for it.

  • How do you check a new supplier before using one?

    Price alone never puts a supplier onto an important order. Product capability, samples, quality, the current price, the MOQ, the lead time, how quickly and clearly they respond, and how far they cooperate are all confirmed, and an important order keeps a backup supplier where it can. A supplier that has not been through that is not used on a project where a failure would be expensive.

  • Why not simply buy at the lowest price?

    Because the cheapest quote is not the cheapest order. Quality comes first, then service, then lead time, then stability, then price, then customisation and cooperation — and service is judged on how fast a reply comes, whether changes are handled willingly, how a rush order is answered, whether a problem is solved without being chased, and whether photos, videos, samples, production progress and the consolidation and packing are provided. Price is what is compared after those.

  • How long does a quotation for a multi-product list take?

    A mature, routine product is priced the same day where it can be, within two to four hours as a target. Where purchasing has to confirm something, one working day is the normal answer, and a complex multi-product project is quoted within 24 to 48 hours. If a list cannot be priced in one pass, you get progress rather than silence: what is already confirmed, what is still being verified, and when the complete proposal follows.

  • What will the quotation for a list actually contain?

    Each item with its name, a reference image, the specification, the material, the size, the logo or customisation process, the quantity, the unit price, the subtotal, the packaging, the sample terms where they apply and the production time; then the shipping method, the freight and the transit time, the total amount, the payment terms and the validity. On a multi-product project the list is given item by item and again as one Total Project Cost, with A, B and C proposals where the brief is open. The product price and the freight are shown separately, and both are held for 60 days.

Where to look next

The pages that carry the rest of it.

How a list is planned before it is sourced, what happens to the goods once they are made, and the range behind both.

Send the list, however long it is.

One item or twenty, with quantities and a date, or just the occasion and a headcount: the list is priced item by item and given to you as one project total. Where a line cannot be confirmed yet, you will be told which one it is and when it will follow.
