Hi there,
There are a number of general questions I think a lot of interested suppliers may want answered :-
- What is the nature of the quality check to be done and what happens if any of the supplied systems fail the quality check of the ultimate customer?. I think suppliers will be interested in knowing this beforehand so there are no possible unpleasant surprises. BTW I will expect all brand new systems supplied (at least 99.9%) which have been purchased direct from the manufacturer or an authorized reseller to pass all standard generally acceptable quality checks, save for the odd system or 2 that actually arrive with an obvious fault.
- How do you intend to finance the initial purchase of these systems since you are unable to draw on any initial mobilization from the contract based on the terms stated therein. Most suppliers will require a good down payment in order to process your order.
- Say a supplier and yourself are able to reach mutually acceptable/beneficial financial terms, what is your expected delivery lead time for a batch and what do you consider a reasonable size for a batch to supply?. When do you have to fulfill the entire order of 1000 units?
- what is the required ratio of 520/530s you require - or is any available combination acceptable?
- Lastly, I have observed that the current configs of newly manufactured 530s for instance is higher than your spec. So a supplier may have to order higher specs than you specified to fill your order if there is no current stock for your required config. This is more an observation than a question.
If you have any pertinent answers, please provide them.
peace,
Brume
