Business decision points
The quote is not just a price, it is the written framework of the order.
Commercial conditions regarding price, payment, sample, packaging and delivery scope are shared in writing in the order-specific quotation.- 01Product and order information required to prepare the quotation
- 02How changes to the product, quantity or materials affect pricing
- 03Sample scope and how changes will be handled

Determine target schedule
The schedule consists of the actual scope of the order.
Shirt production to dispatch readiness takes approximately 3-6 weeks, planned once order scope, approvals and material preparation are complete. Pyjama sampling, production capacity and delivery timing are planned separately for the product and order scope.- Scope of product construction and workmanship details
- Number of styles and colours
- Size-colour distribution by quantity
- Extent of sample changes
- Readiness of fabric and trims
- Labelling and packaging requirements
- Timely sharing of approvals and shipping information
Change and delay management
When a new decision comes, we make its impact visible.
Rather than silently pushing changes into production, we clarify together the impact on scope, cost, and target schedule.We share the decision
We openly share the feasibility of the change and the necessary new decision.
We will proceed after confirmation
We do not begin work that changes the order scope without approval.
We update the coverage
We add approved changes to the order specification and communicate any development that affects the schedule at the relevant stage.
Delivery preparation
Production continues beyond sewing the product.
We treat the delivery method as an integral part of the order, from final product inspection to carton layout.- 01
Final inspection
Garment appearance, measurements and workmanship are inspected against the order scope.
- 02
Folding and packaging
Labelling, folding and garment protection follow the approved specifications.
- 03
carton layout
Quantity, size and colour distributions are matched with the order information during carton preparation.
- 04
Delivery information
When the order is ready, we confirm the information required for delivery or shipment with the buying team.
before you decide
Clear answers regarding ordering and delivery.
01What information should I provide for the initial assessment?
The product category, approximate quantity and target date are a good starting point. If the style, fabric or packaging details are not yet ready, we can work through them during the consultation.
02When is the quotation confirmed?
After assessing product construction, approximate quantity, materials, sample and delivery scope, we provide a written quotation tailored to the order.
03How to evaluate the approximate production quantity?
We assess order quantity alongside the number of styles, garment construction, material availability and target date. A workable production scope is discussed during the initial consultation.
04How does the sample process proceed?
We transfer the agreed product information to the sample. This brings fit, measurements, appearance, fabric, trims and workmanship together for assessment.
05Can we request a change in the sample?
Yes. We assess how changes affect the product, cost and target schedule, then update the approved scope.
06With which approval does bulk production begin?
The production scope is created by clarifying the decisions affecting production such as sample, measurement, product details, quantity distribution, labelling and packaging.
07What information affects the target schedule?
The garment construction, number of styles and colours, quantity split, sample revisions, material preparation, packing and timely approvals all affect the schedule.
08How do we get information about the progress of the order?
Approval points and any developments that may affect production or delivery preparation are shared with the buying team at the relevant stage.
09Can changes be made after production has started?
We assess which production stage the change request affects. The order scope is not changed until feasibility, cost and schedule effects are clear.
10When are labelling and packaging decisions made?
These decisions should be agreed before production begins. Label position, folding, product protection and carton layout are then added to the order specification.
11Why are delivery location and shipping information important?
The delivery method may affect carton preparation and order planning. We therefore verify the delivery location and required shipping information at the relevant stage.
12How to notify that the order is ready?
After final inspection and packing preparation, we share the required delivery or dispatch steps with the buying team.
13Where are the price, payment and commercial terms located?
Commercial conditions regarding price, payment, sample, packaging and delivery scope are shared in writing in the order-specific quotation.
14What happens if customer approvals are delayed?
Delays to approvals that affect production or delivery may change the target schedule. We assess the impact and agree the latest plan with the buying team.
