What we source
made to spec.

These are the product groups we source most often. Most are custom or project-based rather than standard off-the-shelf goods. If your item is not listed, send us the drawings or specification anyway. We work for the buyer, not for any fixed factory.

One accountable sourcing partner

Replace fragmented supplier management with one accountable team.

When a project involves multiple factories, drawings, specifications and shipment dates, the hard part is not finding supplier names — it is keeping every supplier aligned. We act as your buyer-side team in China, coordinating suppliers from sampling through final loading.

How it works
from first brief
to shipment.

Each stage moves forward only after the previous stage has been reviewed and agreed. The aim is simple: define the requirement early, compare suppliers on the same basis, and catch issues while they are still inexpensive to fix.

Requirement review & sourcing plan

Send a drawing, BOM, specification, photo or existing quotation. We clarify the requirement, identify gaps in scope or specification, and define the sourcing target before contacting suppliers.

You receive: a written sourcing brief and target cost framework.

Supplier sourcing & verification

Potential suppliers are screened for capability and fit, with site visits arranged where appropriate. The same requirement is issued to each supplier so quotations can be compared on a like-for-like basis.

You receive: a qualified shortlist, typically 3–5 suppliers, with comparable quotations and cost breakdowns.

Sampling, negotiation & specification sign-off

We coordinate sample rounds and negotiate commercial terms. Before mass production, key dimensions, materials, tolerances, finishes, packaging and approved references are recorded in writing.

You receive: approved samples, agreed commercial terms and a confirmed production specification.

Production follow-up, QC & shipment

Production is followed at agreed milestones. Final inspection is arranged where required, followed by consolidation, loading supervision and checks for consistency and completeness of shipping documents.

You receive: inspection records, final shipping documents and shipment details.

Before we start,
four things to know.

Finding suppliers in China is often the easy part. The harder part is defining requirements clearly, comparing suppliers on the same basis, coordinating the process and managing changes along the way.

01What does a sourcing partner add beyond finding suppliers online?

+

Finding suppliers online is relatively straightforward. The harder part is determining which suppliers are genuinely suitable for a specific project — whether they understand the specification, quote on the same scope, can reproduce an approved sample consistently in production, and can meet the agreed commercial and delivery requirements.

As your China-based sourcing partner, we help structure and coordinate that process. This may include clarifying requirements, verifying suppliers, comparing quotations on a like-for-like basis, coordinating samples and production follow-up, arranging inspections where required, and supporting consolidation and shipping.

The value is not more supplier contacts. It is clearer decisions, fewer avoidable errors and better visibility across cost, schedule and risk.

02Can you source custom or project-specific products?

+

Our core categories include building materials, MEP equipment, building controls and automation, prefab and modular systems, bathroom pods and custom furniture. Many of the items we source are made to order or specified for individual projects rather than bought off the shelf.

If you have drawings, a BOM, technical specifications, photos, samples or an existing quotation, we can start by reviewing the available information, clarifying the requirements and assessing what type of supplier may be suitable.

Sourcing custom-made products from drawings, specifications or samples — as well as coordinating products across multiple categories — is a regular part of our work. If a request falls outside our scope, we will say so early.

03How do you help manage quality and reduce the risk of specification mismatches?

+

Many sourcing problems begin before production, when requirements have not been defined or confirmed clearly enough. That is why we place so much emphasis on specification clarity and alignment.

Before production, we review the relevant specifications, materials, finishes, approved samples, quantities, packaging, quotation basis and lead time with the supplier. During production, we follow agreed milestones and document relevant changes. Where required and agreed as part of the sourcing scope, a pre-shipment inspection can also be arranged.

We cannot promise that every project will be problem-free. When we identify an issue, we report it clearly, document the available evidence and explain the practical options so the buyer can decide how to proceed.

04How are your service fees structured, and how are supplier quotations handled?

+

We work independently of individual suppliers and support the buyer throughout the sourcing process. Our service scope and fees depend on the product categories involved, the number of suppliers, the level of customisation and the overall complexity of the project.

Before work begins, we agree the scope of our services and explain the applicable fees. Where the information is available, supplier quotations and separate costs such as sampling, inspection, logistics and sourcing services are presented clearly so that you can understand what each cost relates to.

A sourcing partner should make procurement costs easier to understand, not harder.
