Published 2026-07-12 · Reviewed by BG Office Furniture export team

Identify the buyer and project context

State whether the request is for distribution, a showroom range, a single project or repeat procurement. Add the destination market, expected order timing and the person responsible for technical clarification.

This context helps the factory answer with the appropriate model, packing and commercial discussion instead of a generic price list.

Create one line for every quoted item

Use model number, description, selected size, quantity and finish reference on each line. If a model includes optional storage or accessories, list those requirements explicitly. Attach reference images only as supporting evidence, not as a replacement for quantities and dimensions.

  • BG model number or reference
  • Selected size
  • Required quantity
  • Finish or colour
  • Configuration and accessories
  • Destination and trade term
  • Target delivery date

Separate confirmed facts from open questions

Mark dimensions or materials that still need factory confirmation. This prevents an assumption from becoming an order error. Record every agreed revision in the updated quotation or specification schedule.

Send the RFQ in a format that both procurement and the supplier can review line by line. A clear schedule usually produces a faster and more useful reply than a message containing only product photos.

Turn the guide into a model quotation.

Send model numbers or a room schedule, quantities, destination and timing. BG will confirm the next commercial step.

Frequently asked questions

Can BG quote from a BOQ or floor plan?

Yes. Send the BOQ, room schedule or floor plan together with quantities, destination and timing so suitable model families can be discussed.

What if the buyer has no BG model number yet?

Provide the product type, dimensions or room requirement, quantity and a reference image. BG can then identify a suitable existing model for confirmation.
