Send the current drawing revision
Provide a drawing with its revision and describe the intended application. Identify the functional interfaces and the dimensions that matter to assembly. A CAD model and drawing can be discussed together when available.
Define material and secondary work
State the required alloy designation and applicable standard if your design specifies them. Identify machining, surface requirements and the checks or records you require. Items that remain open should be marked for discussion.
Explain the project stage
Describe estimated order quantities, sample approval requirements and the delivery destination. Timing and commercial terms need project-specific confirmation; a requested date is not a confirmed lead time.
State what must accompany the order
Tell BLESS which material, dimensional or mechanical-property reports you need. Include packaging and acceptance requirements so they can be discussed before production.
