What does a buyer need to send YHS before quotation?

Send the project type, reference drawing or image, overall dimensions, quantity, repeated modules, material preference, color, equipment dimensions, required openings, power/data/cable requirements, logo or lighting information, project location, target delivery date, shipping conditions and installation conditions. YHS will review the material, drawing and interface information, then identify what must be clarified before shop drawing approval and production.

Who This RFQ and Drawing Guide Is For

For buyers, designers, contractors and equipment integrators preparing a clear project package for a custom furniture quotation.

Project Buyers

Prepare a clear scope, quantity, location and delivery target before requesting a custom furniture quotation.

Architects and Designers

Share the relevant design, dimensions, material direction and interfaces so the project can be reviewed accurately.

Fit-Out Contractors

Include site access, installation conditions and repeated-module information in the project package.

Equipment Integrators

Provide confirmed equipment model drawings, openings and power/data requirements for physical-interface coordination.

Ways to Start a Custom Furniture Inquiry

The information available at the start of a project determines whether YHS can complete an early scope review or move into drawing-based coordination.

Early Budget Review

A reference image, rough dimensions, quantity and project context can support an initial scope discussion when final drawings are pending.

Drawing-Based Quotation

Approved or developing drawings allow YHS to review geometry, modules, openings, material direction and project conditions.

Equipment-Integrated Furniture

Equipment dimensions, mounting information, cable routes and service access are reviewed before physical interfaces are confirmed.

Export and Installation Planning

Shipping route, delivery target, access and installation conditions help define module and packing considerations.

Essential Information for a Useful Quote Review

These inputs help YHS understand the real project scope without making assumptions about unconfirmed dimensions, equipment or site conditions.

Project type and application
Identify whether the project is an airport counter, healthcare station, hotel service counter or another custom commercial furniture application.
Drawings, reference images and dimensions
Send available plans, elevations, reference images and overall dimensions; identify which information remains to be confirmed.
Quantity and repeated modules
State total quantity and whether units repeat, vary by size or need different equipment interfaces.
Location, delivery and installation
Share project location, target delivery date, shipping conditions and installation access so the scope can be reviewed in context.

Required Information Matrix

Use this six-part checklist to prepare a clear RFQ package. The final shop drawing process confirms the details that apply to the individual project.

1. Project identity

Send project type, application, project location and the target delivery date.

2. Design reference and dimensions

Send a drawing or image, overall dimensions, repeated-module information and desired layout.

3. Material and color direction

Identify material preference, visible color, surface direction and any approved brand or lighting requirement.

4. Equipment and service interfaces

Provide equipment dimensions, required openings, power/data/cable requirements and service-access needs.

5. Shipping and installation conditions

State delivery destination, shipping conditions, site access, installation conditions and any module-size limitations.

6. Drawing review and approval

YHS reviews the submitted information, develops shop drawings where agreed, and confirms changes before production starts.

Material and internal structure

How Material and Structure Information Is Used

Material selection, internal construction and equipment interfaces are confirmed from approved project information. A photo or keyword alone is not enough to define a production-ready custom furniture specification.

Material preference from the project brief

Identify the requested visible material and color direction; final selection is confirmed against the approved drawing and project requirements.

Structure selected from approved information

Internal construction is reviewed from dimensions, span, equipment and project requirements rather than assumed from a photo alone.

Equipment areas need confirmed data

Physical equipment interfaces require drawings, mounting, access and service information before they can be finalized.

Approved drawings govern production

Actual materials, structure, openings and module divisions are confirmed in approved project drawings before production.

Customization Information to Include

Include the applicable custom requirements in the RFQ. Omit options that do not apply rather than leaving a project team to infer them.

Custom Size and Layout

Provide overall size, plan, elevation and any repeated-module information.

Color Matching

Identify preferred color direction or approved material information for review.

Curved and Special Shapes

Provide radius, dimensions or clear reference views for special geometry.

Logo Integration

Send approved artwork, location and dimensional information for any logo provision.

LED Lighting

State the intended lighting effect, location and approved electrical interface requirements.

Cable Management

Include power, data and cable-entry requirements with the equipment or services plan.

Equipment Openings

Provide confirmed equipment model dimensions, mounting details and required access clearances.

Packaging and Shipping

State delivery country, shipping conditions, access limitations and target delivery date.

Drawing Review and Approval Process

The project moves from initial information review to approved production details through documented clarification and drawing approval.

1

Project Requirements

Submit your scope, application, quantity, location and delivery target.

2

Drawing and Information Review

YHS reviews drawings, reference images, dimensions, materials and equipment information.

3

Open-Item Confirmation

Clarify missing dimensions, interfaces, site conditions or material choices before a final drawing is released.

4

Shop Drawing Preparation

Where agreed, prepare the project-specific drawings for review and approval.

5

Changes Before Production

Confirm changes to drawings, materials, dimensions or equipment interfaces before production starts.

6

Shop Drawing Approval

Production details are confirmed only after the relevant drawing approval.

7

Production

Manufacture follows the approved drawings and confirmed project requirements.

8

Export Packaging and Delivery

Packing and delivery coordination follow the confirmed project plan.

Custom Furniture RFQ and Drawing FAQ

Answers for project teams preparing drawings, equipment data and delivery information for a custom furniture quote.

What should a buyer send before requesting a custom furniture quote?

Send the project type, a reference drawing or image, overall dimensions, quantity, repeated-module information, material and color direction, equipment details, project location, target delivery date, shipping conditions and installation conditions. YHS will review the submission and identify any information still needed.

Do I need final drawings before asking for a quote?

No. A reference image, preliminary drawing and approximate dimensions can support an initial scope review. A final quote, shop drawing and physical equipment interface require the project information to be clarified and approved at the relevant stage. YHS identifies missing inputs during the initial review.

Which drawing file formats can YHS process?

Available file formats should be confirmed with YHS when you submit the project package, because the required review and the source files vary by project. Do not convert or omit important dimensions simply to fit a presumed format; send the available reference files and identify their source.

What equipment information is needed?

Provide the confirmed equipment model, overall dimensions, mounting details, required openings, ventilation or service access requirements, and power/data/cable needs. This information is necessary to coordinate the physical furniture interface; YHS does not assume equipment dimensions from generic product categories. It also identifies unresolved interfaces before drawing approval.

Can a project change after shop drawing review?

Changes can be reviewed before production begins, but they may affect drawings, material selection, equipment interfaces, module division or the quotation. Share revisions promptly so the project team can confirm the appropriate update before production is released. No change is assumed until the updated drawing is agreed.

Why are shipping and installation conditions needed for quotation?

Delivery route, access, site conditions and installation requirements can affect module size, protective packing and the information needed for assembly. Providing these conditions early helps the project team review a practical furniture and delivery approach. Final packing and assembly scope follows confirmed project information.
