Ferrous Metals procurement guide

Ferrous materials are supplied by grade, form and quantity for fabrication, manufacturing and construction use. Procurement should define the required material/form, end use and acceptance basis rather than rely on a broad metals & raw materials label.

Process use and product identity

The listed applications are Structural fabrication, Manufacturing raw material supply, Foundry and casting operations and Engineering and machining stock. State the actual substrate, process, project location or finished article because it determines the relevant grade, dimensions, finish and performance criteria.

Composition, safety and approval

Use the quotation to record the selected values and acceptance basis for Grade and specification required, Form, dimensions and quantities, Testing and certification requirements, Surface condition requirements and Delivery schedule and destination. Those fields vary by source or configuration; any test report, datasheet, certificate or sample needed for approval must be named in the enquiry rather than assumed.

Packaging, handling and documentation

Define unit size and quantity basis, protective packing, labels and batch/lot traceability, pallet or bundle limits, moisture/temperature or hazardous-goods controls where applicable, unloading method, storage and phased site or production delivery.
