What to capture for each quote

Use the same unit and shipment boundary across offers. These cards describe inputs for a review.

01 / Material

Mass per assembly

Unit
kg per wheel
Record
Rim size and supplier weight sheet
Boundary
Wheel, valve and supplied fittings

Assembly mass = wheel + supplied fittings

Example · 10 kg wheel + 0.1 kg fittings = 10.1 kg total.

02 / Packaging

Carton material

Unit
kg per carton
Record
Supplier packing specification
Boundary
Carton, separators and wrap

Material mass per wheel = packaging mass ÷ wheels per carton

Example · 3.2 kg across four wheels = 0.8 kg per wheel.

03 / Freight

Shipment utilization

Unit
cartons and m³
Record
Packing list and load plan
Boundary
Named route and consolidation point

Volume share = carton volume ÷ usable freight volume

Example · 27 m³ of cartons ÷ 54 m³ usable space = 50%.
