1Requirement sorting
Clarify product type, materials, dimensions, color, logo method, use case, load or durability needs, quantity, market, sample needs, and packaging. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Use requirement sorting to test the produced goods against controlled requirements, not a supplier's general standard. Link measurements, photographs, functional checks, sample references, affected quantities, corrections, and buyer disposition so the inspection record can support a release or stop decision.
2Supplier comparison
Compare supplier options by product match, MOQ, material, sample policy, customization method, lead time, packing, and quoted accessories. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Review supplier comparison against one product brief: legal seller, factory role, relevant capability, MOQ, sample status, quotation basis, and unresolved claims. Record the source and date for each material check, then return gaps for buyer approval before a deposit or supplier selection.
3Document questions
Coordinate questions about material declarations, test reports, safety labels, packaging details, manuals, product photos, and supplier document scope. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Review document questions against one product brief: legal seller, factory role, relevant capability, MOQ, sample status, quotation basis, and unresolved claims. Record the source and date for each material check, then return gaps for buyer approval before a deposit or supplier selection.
4Sample follow-up
Organize sample instructions, photos, measurements, material differences, logo placement, packaging notes, and buyer feedback before bulk approval. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Leave the next owner a clear handoff, including open questions and delays.
5Inspection planning
Prepare checks. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Leave the next owner a clear handoff, including open questions and delays. Use inspection planning to test the produced goods against controlled requirements, not a supplier's general standard. Link measurements, photographs, functional checks, sample references, affected quantities, corrections, and buyer disposition so the inspection record can support a release or stop decision.
6Shipping preparation
Help coordinate carton data, packing lists, seasonal timing, supplier pickup readiness, freight communication, and document handoff. Keep the owner, open questions, and buyer approval visible as work moves forward. Leave the next owner a clear handoff, including open questions and delays.
