Quotation Scope Comparison Worksheet
Compare quotations by documented scope before comparing commercial terms. A blank field means “not confirmed”; it should not be converted into an assumption.
| Comparison field | Supplier A | Supplier B | Review note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Supplier and legal entity | Match the contracting and invoicing entity | ||
| Exact product and revision | Record model, size, configuration and revision | ||
| Included items | List components, packaging and documents | ||
| Exclusions and assumptions | Keep unanswered items visible | ||
| Commercial terms | Confirm price, MOQ, payment and delivery in writing | ||
| Evidence status | Link each claim to a supplied document or sample note | ||
| Revision and reviewer | Record quotation date, version and owner |
Use the worksheet with the Carbon Bike OEM RFQ Template; it is a comparison aid, not a substitute for written project terms.
