How to avoid delays

  1. 1Send layout drawings or site photos with measurements.
  2. 2List product dimensions, weight, and throughput.
  3. 3Specify incline, transfer points, and environment.
  4. 4Define control and safety requirements.

RFQ checklist

  • Layout length, width, and elevation
  • Product dimensions and weight
  • Throughput and speed targets
  • Controls and safety requirements
