Prepare a sourcing brief

Independent sourcing. A clear next step.

HOW SOURCING WORKS

Fewer assumptions.
Better decisions.

A practical framework for moving from an idea to an agreed order. Each step needs confirmation; nothing here is an instant production commitment.

01

Start with the brief

Tell us about your business, market, style direction and estimated quantities. Share a design reference or a tech pack.

Your output: a clearly scoped request.
02

Establish feasibility

Discuss supplier options, material choices, minimum quantities, sample costs and estimated schedules. Confirm the actual supplier and selling entity.

Your output: written options, not assumptions.
03

Approve the sample

Review a physical sample for fit, appearance, construction and finishing. Agree acceptable tolerances and any required independent testing.

Your output: an approved reference and specification.
04

Confirm the order

Record the product specification, price, quantities, payment milestones, inspection plan and delivery terms in a formal agreement.

Your output: an agreement with a verified counterparty.
05

Production, checks & dispatch

Define who follows production, how quality is checked and who books freight. Confirm transport documents, destination requirements and handover responsibilities.

Your output: an agreed inspection and delivery process.
QUALITY IS A SPECIFICATION

Ask the right
questions early.

A website claim is not a test report. Agree what to check and what evidence you need for your product and market.

Product details

Materials, measurements, size grading, workmanship and functional expectations.

Sample approval

Record your comments and keep an agreed reference for production.

Independent checks

Discuss third-party inspection or accredited testing when your market requires it.

Shipping scope

Clarify freight, customs, insurance, taxes and the named delivery point.
