A well-structured RFQ is the foundation of an efficient procurement cycle. When sourcing tactical footwear at institutional scale, vague specifications lead to wide price variances and incomparable quotations.
Key Fields to Include
- Technical Specification Reference: ASTM F2413, EN ISO 20345, or MIL-SPEC reference
- Quantity & Unit: Total pairs, broken down by size if applicable
- Delivery Timeline: Required in-country date with flexibility window
- Incoterm: EXW, FOB, CIF, or DDP — clarity here prevents costly disputes
- Quality Standard: AQL level, inspection protocol, third-party inspection requirement
- Target Price Range: Optional but helps filter non-competitive responses
Including all of these fields in your initial RFQ will typically reduce the quotation response cycle from 5–7 days to under 48 hours.
