Sourcing considerations
Details that change the answer.
The best supplier option depends on the performance, service and commercial expectations behind the equipment—not the category name alone.
Approve in stages
Drawings, components, prototypes and packaging should have explicit approval points before production.
Design for repeatability
The production process and inspection criteria need to preserve the approved result beyond the first sample.
