A vague RFQ costs your team a round of emails before pricing even starts

Specification, quantity, tolerance and lead time are the details a real quote depends on — and the ones most often missing on first contact.

Set up intake for your business

What qualification actually captures

  • Part type / product category
  • Material and finish requirements
  • Quantity and whether volume pricing breaks matter
  • Tolerance and specification detail, or whether drawings/specs will follow separately
  • Target lead time
  • Whether this is a one-off order or a recurring supply relationship

Why manufacturing RFQs are usually incomplete on arrival

A buyer submitting an RFQ often doesn't know upfront which details actually change the quote — material, tolerance, finish, quantity breaks, or lead-time flexibility. What arrives is frequently a general request ("can you make this part") missing the specifics an estimator needs to even start, which means a round of clarifying emails before real pricing work begins.

Distinguishing a real production RFQ from a sample or spec-sheet request

Not every inbound inquiry is ready to be quoted — some are early research requests for a spec sheet or a sample, not a production order. Qualification surfaces that distinction, so estimating time goes to inquiries actually ready to be priced.

Turning an RFQ into a structured brief, not an automatic quote

This is RFQ-intake qualification, not automated quoting — it collects the inputs a real quote depends on and structures them into a clean brief for your estimator. Pricing judgment, technical feasibility, and the actual quote stay entirely with your team, every time.

Questions

Does this generate an automatic price or quote?+

No — it qualifies the RFQ into a structured, complete brief. Pricing is prepared and confirmed by your team; the automation never quotes a part on its own.

Can it handle technical drawings or spec sheets attached to an inquiry?+

It can capture that an attachment exists and flag it for your team to review — technical evaluation of the drawing itself stays with your engineers.

Does this apply to one-off custom parts or only standard catalog items?+

Both — the qualifying questions adjust to whether it's a standard product or a custom specification during setup.

Can it tell a serious RFQ from a student project or a price-comparison request with no real order behind it?+

The qualifying questions (quantity, lead time, recurring vs. one-off) surface that distinction early — it's a strong signal, not a guaranteed filter.

What about existing distributors reordering, not new RFQs?+

That's a different page — see Distributor & Dealer Portal for Manufacturers. This page qualifies new inbound RFQs; the portal is self-service reordering for an existing distributor relationship.
