Fictional example

RFQ SAMPLE-014

Review required

Source-linked part details. Conflicts and unknowns stay visible for shop review.

Accepted-input example: this fictional bundle pairs pasted RFQ email text (“Please quote 24 BR-18 brackets”) with an RFC 4180 parts CSV (BR-18, 20). Real intake, when enabled, also accepts UTF-8 TXT and readable text-layer PDFs; scanned/image-only PDFs and CAD are unsupported. The output below keeps both quantities and their citations visible.

Workflow

Source first. Shop judgment stays with you.

  1. 01

    Gather the source material

    Group an RFQ email and parts documents into one bundle when real-source intake is available.

  2. 02

    Review facts beside their sources

    Keep quoted values, source locations, missing details, and conflicting values visible together.

  3. 03

    Edit, save, and prepare the handoff

    Revise the checklist, prepare a clarification draft, and export CSV or a printable PDF for qualified shop review.

RivetRake does not calculate a quote or approve manufacturability. Verify the source material and use your shop’s judgment before quoting.
