A shorter RFQ usually gets a more useful answer.
A peptide RFQ should identify the material, pack, quantity, destination, required documents and commercial terms. Missing fields turn a quotation into a series of clarification messages.
RFQ completeness check
Use the same form for every supplier so responses are easier to compare.
| Section | Required detail | Common failure |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Name, code, grade and exact strength | Using a family name as if it were one SKU |
| Pack | Vial count, fill, carton and label requirement | Changing pack after the price is quoted |
| Quantity | Requested commercial quantity and repeat forecast | Asking for price without volume context |
| Destination | Country, city and delivery basis | Ignoring freight or import review |
| Documents | Specification, COA route, SDS and testing request | Assuming every lot has the same file set |
| Commercial | Currency, validity, payment and Incoterm | Comparing quotes on different bases |
Questions that should receive written answers.
- Which exact specification and pack does the price cover?
- Which documents are available for the quoted lot?
- What is included in the delivery basis and what is excluded?
- Which legal seller and payment instruction match the contract?
What this route can and cannot confirm
Should I send the target price?
A target price can narrow the route, but it should not replace material, pack, document and destination requirements. Otherwise the comparison can become misleading.
Is a lower price enough to choose a supplier?
No. Compare identity, document scope, pack, delivery basis, seller identity and payment route before deciding.
Can an RFQ remain exploratory?
Yes. State that clearly. The request can identify missing information without pretending a final order is ready.
