How it works

From Drawing to Delivery: How It Works

Meknora remains your primary project contact from RFQ to shipment, coordinating engineering questions, supplier communication, production follow-up, inspection, and delivery handoff.

Responsibility model

The selected supplier runs the manufacturing process. Meknora coordinates the project against the approved requirement.

Questions, assumptions, revisions, schedule changes, inspection findings, and shipment decisions stay connected to the same RFQ. Your project contact consolidates the work so you do not have to manage multiple factories or reconstruct what was agreed.

Responsibility still has boundaries: you approve material specification changes, engineering deviations, commercial changes, and other decisions reserved for the customer. Those approval points should be explicit.

Seven-step workflow

Each handoff has an output and an owner.

Sampling loops or sourcing complexity may change the schedule, but the control sequence remains visible.

  1. 01

    Upload

    Send drawings, CAD, a BOM, samples, or a sourcing brief. Request an NDA before technical disclosure when needed.

  2. 02

    Engineering review

    We check revision, material, quantity, critical requirements, target timing, and the questions needed for a comparable quote.

  3. 03

    Supplier matching

    We screen candidate suppliers against process fit, material, volume, quality needs, schedule, and documentation—not price alone.

  4. 04

    Quotation

    You receive a consolidated proposal with assumptions, open points, tooling or setup, inspection scope, lead time, and delivery terms.

  5. 05

    Production

    We coordinate the approved revision, DFM decisions, samples or first-off checks, milestones, changes, and supplier communication.

  6. 06

    Quality inspection

    Agreed dimensional, appearance, document, quantity, and packaging checks are completed before release.

  7. 07

    Shipping

    After the agreed release decision, we coordinate packaging, shipping documents, freight handoff, and outstanding actions.

What one interface means

Meknora remains the primary project contact.

We coordinate the communication loop and keep unresolved items visible. Remedies for delay or quality failure remain governed by the accepted quotation and project terms.

  • One consolidated list of technical questions and assumptions
  • One controlled drawing and requirement revision baseline
  • One view of milestones, delays, risks, and required decisions
  • Supplier comparison based on the same quotation package
  • Inspection findings routed through the project contact
  • Issues followed through containment, disposition, and re-verification

Customer approval points

Your approval is not assumed.

We can coordinate analysis and recommendations, but we do not silently approve changes to the customer’s product definition or acceptance criteria.

  1. 01
    A DFM proposal that changes geometry, material, finish, or specification
  2. 02
    A sample, first article, or appearance standard when included in the plan
  3. 03
    A non-conformance disposition such as use-as-is or a specification deviation
  4. 04
    A material change to price, tooling, lead time, inspection, packaging, or delivery terms
  5. 05
    Shipment release when the agreed workflow reserves that decision for you

No account required

Start with the files you already have.

Upload a drawing, CAD file, BOM, or sourcing brief. We will identify missing inputs, technical questions, and quotation assumptions before production is considered.
