Finding an industrial manufacturer to partner with can be a challenging task, let alone knowing exactly what information they'll need from you.
Excellent communication practices are paramount when it comes to any successful B2B relationship, which is why our Industrial Business Development team has put together a checklist of items—and their corresponding formats—that you'll need to give to your manufacturer for any industrial project.
This information is vital to your manufacturer because it gives them an idea on production capacity, pricing, expected sales and purchasing.
These include finishes, tolerances, material and paints that are both general practices and specific to your product.
If you're working with a larger company (or vice versa), it's always good to establish primary contacts from both parties.
The more specific the information you give your manufacturer, the more accurate your quotes will be. It also enhances communication and helps build a working bond between you and your industrial manufacturer. The most practical way to submit an order is via email because it diminishes the chances of getting lost and can easily be distributed if needed.
At HUI, we have an in-depth understanding of how to make a successful industrial product, and it starts with an open floor of communication. Contact us today to get your project underway.
