Approval record: Design input
Before finance or operations signs, freeze the can-body and end combinations, beverage temperature, carbonation, target fill volume, quantity, destination and whether the seamer is inside the quoted boundary. Attach the drawing or measured can data used in the RFQ. Note optional budget as currency plus per-unit or whole-order basis if the buyer wants that preference circulated. These inputs are the approval packet, not a substitute for the supplier’s own datasheet.
Supplier answer
Each factory should split the offer into machine, delivery and site buckets: filler and listed seaming tooling; packing and freight; installation, training, seam gauges and inspection training. Ask how fill loss and oxygen pickup will be checked on the actual beverage, including sample points after seaming. If a bidder includes gauges in one paragraph and excludes inspection training in another, copy both sentences into the record instead of averaging them. Public catalog speeds stay outside the approval packet until restated against your can and drink.
