Five-stage workflow

A clear record from first photos to site handoff

Each stage separates what can be discussed, what still needs confirmation, and what is recorded after both sides agree.

Five-stage workflow

Five confirmation stages

The sequence may be discussed for each project, while the same responsibility checks remain visible.

01 / 05

Initial photos and rough dimensions

Start with visible site conditions and clearly mark information that is still approximate.

Records to confirm

  • Opening photos and marked location
  • Rough width, height, wall, and floor information

Supplier

Review the submitted information and list missing or unclear items.

Customer

Share opening photos, rough width and height, location, and known wall conditions.

Local contractor

When appointed, check site access, wall build-up, and field-measurement needs.

02 / 05

Product and style discussion

Compare product types and references without treating an early preference as a final selection.

Records to confirm

  • Product category and style ID references
  • Color, glass, hardware, and finish decisions still open or confirmed

Supplier

Discuss available directions and identify choices that require further confirmation.

Customer

Share preferred products, style IDs, color, glass, hardware, and reference images.

Local contractor

Flag clearances, interfaces, or site rules that may affect the selection.

03 / 05

Drawing and quote confirmation

Review revisions together so dimensions, configuration, scope, and commercial terms are not assumed.

Records to confirm

  • Confirmed drawing revision and opening information
  • Confirmed quote revision, scope, and open-item list

Supplier

Provide applicable revisions and clearly identify included, excluded, and open items.

Customer

Review the drawing and quote revisions and confirm the agreed version in writing.

Local contractor

Review final field dimensions, interfaces, clearances, and installation conditions.

04 / 05

Production, inspection, and packing communication

Communicate applicable checkpoints and only list records that have been agreed for the project.

Records to confirm

  • Agreed production and inspection communication notes
  • Agreed packing labels, handling notes, and packing information

Supplier

Communicate applicable progress, inspection, and packing checkpoints when available.

Customer

Respond to open confirmations and review agreed updates or records when shared.

Local contractor

Confirm receiving access, handling limits, and site needs that affect packing or handoff.

05 / 05

Shipping and installation coordination

Confirm destination and handoff responsibilities; site installation is arranged with the customer-appointed local contractor.

Records to confirm

  • Destination, consignee, and shipping communication record
  • Site handoff and local installation responsibility record

Supplier

Discuss shipping documents, product handoff information, and product-side questions.

Customer

Confirm consignee, destination, access, receiving plan, and appointed local contractor.

Local contractor

Plan site receiving, protect the opening, perform installation, and confirm site completion items.

Five-stage workflow

Information to prepare

Send what is available and identify what remains unknown. A rough starting record is more useful than an unmarked assumption.

  • Opening photos, rough dimensions, and wall information
  • Product category and preferred style IDs
  • Color, glass, hardware, and finish references
  • Plans, schedules, marked photos, or revision notes when available
  • Project location, destination, and current stage
  • Local contractor contact and known site constraints when available

Begin with the first-stage record

Opening photos and rough dimensions are enough to begin the conversation. Later decisions remain open until confirmed.
