Bulk Botanical Extract RFQ Checklist

Preparing a bulk botanical extract RFQ? Send specification, sample status, COA needs, MOQ, packing and destination market together.

Requirements

This B2B template helps buyers prepare supplier questions before comparing botanical extract grades. Keep the material name, source, target marker, assay method, COA fields, sample needs and commercial details in one working file.

Selection Criteria

Field	Buyer input	Supplier review purpose
Material target	Botanical name, plant part, extract ratio, marker and assay method.	Defines the item before price comparison.
Sample status	Needed, received, approved or pending internal review.	Shows where the project sits in the buying process.
Document request	Specification sheet, COA, method note, packing and export files.	Helps the supplier prepare a complete response.
Commercial terms	Quantity, MOQ expectation, packing size and lead time.	Gives the supplier enough data for quotation.
Destination	Country, port, address or requested delivery basis.	Supports freight and document planning.

Practical Recommendation

Use this page as a pre-RFQ worksheet. If the grade is fixed, send the target assay and method first. If the grade is still open, ask the supplier to propose available specification options with representative COA and sample lot details.

Open Grade vs Fixed Specification

Dimension	Open grade	Fixed specification
Best use	Early supplier screening and sample comparison.	Strict QA review and quotation.
Buyer input	Application, source direction and acceptable marker range.	Exact marker, method, physical fields and document list.
Limit	Needs later specification confirmation.	May reduce available supplier options.
