Why quoting is painful for glass, awning & lumber suppliers
Sound familiar?
A typical custom build quote
A general contractor needs tempered glass railings for a 22-unit condo, plus matching aluminum top rail and stainless hardware. You need glass pricing from two fabricators, hardware from a distributor, and a freight quote on oversized panels — by Friday.
Materials, hardware, and sub-trades — quoted together
Each job becomes a structured set of supplier RFQs. Materials, hardware, sub-trades, and freight all sit on the same quote so nothing gets forgotten.

Common questions
Can we attach drawings or specs to a supplier RFQ?
Yes. You can attach drawings, specs, or PDFs to each RFQ so suppliers quote against the same information.
Does it support multi-supplier jobs with sub-trades?
Yes. Materials, hardware, and sub-trades all live on the same job with comparable pricing.
