Each RFQ carries the drawing, quantity, target dates, and any process lanes the job needs (e.g. machining, finishing, inspection). ## Choosing suppliers You can send an RFQ to: * A single supplier you already work with * A shortlist assembled manually * Your full supplier directory, for competitive bidding Each process lane on a job can be assigned to a different supplier, so a single order can be split across machining, finishing, and inspection specialists without losing a single thread of visibility. ## Privacy RFQ visibility can be scoped per order — private to invited suppliers only, workspace-visible, or fully open — and part identity is never exposed to a supplier ahead of an accepted bid. See where every RFQ and order stands once it's out the door.
