Quote quality tracks request quality. These are the fields that move numbers in a litter box quotation and what each one changes in the replies you can compare.
An RFQ that says automatic litter box, 1,000 pieces returns a number, not a quotation. A structured request returns a costed offer you can compare across factories line by line. The fields below move numbers in this category; our request form mirrors most of them, and this page explains what to put in each.
| Field | What to state | Effect on the quote |
|---|---|---|
| Category and mechanism | Self-cleaning type, hooded, open-top, furniture or accessories | Selects the line and base platform |
| Dimensions | Interior footprint, depth, entry and sill targets | Mold sizing and material weight |
| Materials | Resin per part, finish, liner and filter specs | Core unit-cost drivers |
| Electronics scope | Sensing, app features, radio, per the tech pack | Module cost and certification scope |
| Power variants | Destination markets and adapter plan | Variant SKUs and labels |
| Certification targets | CE family, FCC route, Prop 65 awareness, per market | Testing cost and timeline |
| Colors and finishes | Color count and approved standards | Dye-lot minimums per color |
| Packaging | Retail box, inner carton, export configuration | Unit cost and freight cube together |
| Quantities | First order plus annual outlook | Price breaks and capacity planning |
| Timeline | Sampling deadline and delivery window | Feasibility before promises |
Ask every factory to reply in the same structure; comparing three offers in one format takes minutes, while three formats hide real differences. Evaluate the replies with the vetting questionnaire, and carry the accepted answer set into the tech pack so the document and the quotation never drift apart.
Send your mechanism type, capacity and certification need — we match a verified factory and return a consolidated quotation.
