Procurement
Submit Your BOM
Send a bill of materials or RFQ document and receive a documented configuration response.
What to Include
The details that allow us to quote accurately from your bill of materials.
-
01
Line Items and Part Numbers
List each item with the manufacturer part number where you have it. Where you only have a description, or a competing product code, say so. We identify the equivalent and confirm it with you in writing before it goes into a quotation.
-
02
Quantities
Give the quantity per line, and tell us whether this is a single deployment or the first phase of a larger rollout. Quantity affects pricing, supplier allocation and lead time, and phased volume is often worth structuring differently.
-
03
Destination
Tell us the delivery country, city and site type. Destination drives freight mode, export and import documentation, customs treatment and, in many cases, which regional product variant can lawfully be supplied.
-
04
Timeline
Tell us when the equipment needs to be on site and whether that date is fixed or preferred. Where a date is firm we quote against what can realistically be delivered by then, rather than against the shortest theoretical lead time.
-
05
Technical Constraints
Rack depth, power envelope, cooling capacity, network topology and compatibility with your existing platform all narrow the options. Telling us early avoids a quotation for equipment that will not fit the environment it is going into.
-
06
Commercial Requirements
Tell us the currency you buy in, the Incoterm you work to, any vendor onboarding or procurement process we need to follow, and whether the quotation needs to be structured a particular way for your internal approval.
What Happens Next
After You Send It
We Read It and Query It
We come back on anything ambiguous: a superseded part number, a quantity that does not match the configuration, or a component that will not work in the environment you have described.
We Price It Line by Line
Availability, allocation and lead time are confirmed with suppliers per line item, rather than estimated from a catalogue price that may no longer stand.
You Get It in Writing
Specification, quantity, unit and total price, currency, lead time per line, delivery terms and a validity period. Nothing material is left to be settled after acceptance.
You Decide
A quotation is an offer, not a commitment. Nothing is ordered, reserved or charged until you accept it in writing.
Send the List in Whatever Form You Have It
A spreadsheet, a PDF, an export from your procurement system or a written description. If it is incomplete we will tell you what is missing rather than guess at it.
