A clear RFQ gets you accurate quotes you can actually compare. A vague one wastes everyone's time. Here is how to write one that works.
State the exact item, specification, material, size, and any standard it must meet. The more precise you are, the more accurate the quotes.
Give the quantity (and whether it repeats), the delivery location, and the timeline. Suppliers price differently for one-off versus regular orders.
Request unit price, taxes, packing, freight, payment terms, and lead time, so you compare the real landed cost, not just the headline price.
Send the same RFQ to a few vetted suppliers so the quotes are comparable. Post it as a requirement and let verified suppliers respond.
Post your requirement free and get quotes from verified Indian suppliers. Run the whole deal, from enquiry to payment, with the free IndiaCRM app.
