Trust
Your drawing stays on a short list.
From the first upload through production, the file is used to quote, make, and inspect your parts. Here is the path, and the controls around it.
The path
Five stops. Then the file is done.
- 01
You send it
RFQ form, email, or your portal.
- 02
Private store
Random ID. No public link.
- 03
Named people
US desk and Chengdu factory.
- 04
Your job only
Quote, make, and inspect.
- 05
Close the file
Report ships. Delete on request.
The controls
Tighter than a drawing forwarded until someone quotes it.
Work made in China often starts as a file sent to a trading desk, then passed along with no named holder and no expiry. Ours is a US contract, a named factory on the same NDA, and a file that expires, stays private, and is used for your job only.
One NDA, factory named
Sunbird Manufacturing signs the mutual NDA. Chengdu Beiji is on the same paper, so the factory that makes the part is named.
Private storage, short links
The upload sits in private storage under a random ID. Nothing is posted to a public link. The links our team receives stop working after 7 days.
A short list of people
The US desk and the Chengdu factory open the file to quote and make the part. If a finishing step needs an outside vendor, that vendor is named on the quote before the file goes there.
Your portal, if you require it
If the file has to stay in your system, send a portal invite. We download from your side instead of asking you to send a copy out.
Export control before the file moves
If a drawing cannot go to China, tell us before you send it. We will not take it until the right authorization is in place.
One job, then a written close
The drawing is used to review, quote, make, and inspect your parts. We do not build our own product from it, and we do not quote your part for anyone else. Ask us to delete the RFQ files and we confirm in writing.
Through production
The same file makes the part.
Quote files become the job file. Chengdu uses them to machine, fabricate, weld, and assemble. When a part needs molding, the Shenzhen shop uses them for that mold. You get an inspection report with the shipment.
You can send a drawing before the NDA is in place. Many buyers send the paper first. Download ours, countersign it, and send it back. Or send yours.
