A vegetable-oil RFQ should request more than a product name and unit price. Quotations become comparable when oil type, technical parameters, packaging, quantities, delivery point and documentation expectations use one common format.
Checklist
- Oil type, refining status and intended use
- Technical limits and target market where applicable
- PET, tin, flexitank or bulk packaging
- Net volume, case configuration and pallet expectation
- Order quantity and indicative periodic demand
- Delivery country, city and preferred Incoterm
- Label language and private-label requirements
- COA, origin and batch-document expectations
- Target date and quotation validity
