Precision-machined components ready for project review

Start your project

Prepare Your Manufacturing RFQ

Build a clear project summary, then email it with your drawings. Include the technical details and commercial requirements needed for review.

Project guide

Have a drawing? Still choosing a process?

Share what you know about your part. You can ask for help with the process or material, and provide drawings later if needed. The tool below prepares a clear starting point for discussion.

Start with what you know

Turn your part requirements into a clear RFQ

Start with your part, material and quantity. Generate an email draft, then add drawings and send it from your email application. Open questions are welcome.

Short drafts may open in your email application. Longer drafts download as Bolar-RFQ.eml; open the file, add drawings and send. If neither works, email sales@bolar-precision.com directly using the details below.

Email sales@bolar-precision.com with your project name, material, quantity, drawings and any technical requirements. Email generation needs JavaScript; you can still use the checklist below.

Talk With Our Manufacturing Team

Use your approved business email workflow to share drawings and supporting files. Confirm any confidentiality requirements before sharing project files.

Request a Quote Ask a Capability Question

Use one email thread per project and include the part number or project name in the subject line.

Agree What the Quotation Covers

Compare the same part revision, material and batch quantity. Confirm the operations, finishing, inspection records, assembly, packaging and delivery scope included in the proposal. State requested timing separately from a confirmed schedule.

Need to agree confidentiality terms or confirm a file format first? Email a project outline and the questions to resolve before sharing the drawings.

File handover

Prepare the Available Files

Identify each part number, revision, file format, software version and drawing units. Keep the model and drawing revisions aligned.
A model describes geometry; a dimensioned drawing can add tolerances, threads, finish and acceptance requirements. Name the available format, such as STEP or PDF, and confirm readability before conversion or transfer.
If the design is incomplete, start with the part function, available sketch or model, mating interfaces and questions still open. Identify what remains to be defined.
Before sharing sensitive drawings, discuss any confidentiality terms and the agreed transfer method by email. Do not send files whose sharing permission is unresolved.

Attach agreed files in your email application. This webpage does not upload drawings.

Your first order

Plan Your First Batch

Use the first order to establish what will be made, how it will be checked and what must be approved before repeat production.

01
Define the first batch
Separate the quantity needed for evaluation from expected repeat quantities. Ask for the proposed minimum batch and any setup or tooling costs for this part.
02
Agree the approval point
State whether you need a sample, dimensional records or a fit check before the remaining batch proceeds. Agree who approves and what evidence is required.
03
Confirm the quotation
Align the part revision, material, finish, inspection, packaging and delivery scope. Confirm price, payment milestones and a schedule in writing.
04
Review before repeating
Record the approved revision and any agreed changes. A successful sample does not automatically approve a changed material, process or next batch.

A first order starts with a clear scope. Batch size, sample arrangements, lead time and payment terms depend on the reviewed part and quotation.

Discuss Your First Batch

Quotation review

Keep the Quotation Comparable

Use the same part revision, quantity, material, finish and inspection scope when comparing quotations. Identify missing decisions before accepting a price or schedule.

Review quotation scope Prepare files Plan sample approval

Decision guide

Confirm the supplier facts that matter to your order

If your procurement process requires supplier approval, contact sales@bolar-precision.com with the documents and review criteria needed for your order. Confirm the contracting entity, production scope and applicable credentials alongside the technical quotation.

Review points for your project
Qualification topic	What to confirm	Why it matters
Contracting entity	Legal name and the entity shown on the quotation and order	Align supplier approval, payment and contract records
Production scope	Which operations are included and how production is organized	Clarify responsibility for processing, finishing and inspection
Credentials	Certificate holder, applicable scope and current validity where required	A website service description does not establish certification
Project handover	Contacts, approved revisions, acceptance documents and delivery scope	Keep the quotation and released order aligned

Use current project documents for supplier approval. Request specific supporting evidence rather than inferring facility ownership, certification or customer approval from an illustration or an industry page.

Guide updated 9 October 2026. Confirm the manufacturing and inspection scope for your actual order.

After your email

What to expect from the project review

Once the team receives your email, the next step depends on how complete the requirements are and which questions need to be resolved.

Technical questions

We review the available drawing and requirements, identify missing information and discuss manufacturing or inspection questions that affect the proposal.

Quotation scope

The project discussion covers the proposed operations, material, finish, quantity, inspection and delivery scope. Confirm costs and exclusions against the same part revision.

Your next decision

Agree the next step: clarify the design, review a quotation or plan a sample. A requested date becomes a commitment only after the schedule is confirmed.

Have a deadline? Include the target date, destination and whether it is for a sample or a production batch. Ask for the expected reply and quotation timing in your email.

Before you place an order

Answers to first-order questions

Resolve the technical and commercial conditions together, so you can compare the quotation and release the order with the same expectations.

Can I start with a small trial order?

State the evaluation quantity and expected repeat demand. We can discuss a suitable first-batch plan; minimum quantity, setup charges and sample arrangements are confirmed for the reviewed part.

How will the sample be approved?

Agree which drawing revision controls acceptance, which dimensions or fit checks matter and who approves the results. Specify whether approval is required before the rest of the batch proceeds.

What should the quotation include?

Confirm quantity and unit price, setup or tooling costs, material, finish, inspection records, packaging and shipping scope. Also agree payment milestones, quotation validity and any exclusions before placing the order.

When is delivery confirmed?

Provide your requested date and destination. The confirmed schedule depends on technical review, material and process availability, approvals and the agreed order terms; a target date in an RFQ is not a confirmed delivery date.

What if a sample or delivered part has an issue?

Keep the part number, revision, batch reference, photos and measured results with the original email thread. Agree how the team will review the issue and any proposed correction, rework or replacement before taking action.

Can confidentiality be agreed before I share drawings?

Email a project outline and your confidentiality requirements first. Agree the terms and file-transfer method before sharing sensitive files.
