Procurement scenario
OEM Custom Components
For OEM items the drawing is the product definition. The inquiry needs a revision, a stated unit system and a clear list of surfaces that must remain uncovered.
Typical procurement problems
What to check on site
- Repeated geometry with uncontrolled drawing revisions
- No explicit datum or unit system on the drawing
- Unclear which surfaces, sensors or nameplates must remain exposed
- Confidentiality requirements for the drawing set
Information to prepare
What to send with your inquiry
- Dimensioned drawing with revision and approval contact
- Protrusions, sensors and nameplate locations
- Expected repetition: one-off, batch or recurring
- Any tagging or identification convention
