Procurement
Locks quantity, destination, currency, Incoterm and whether the target budget is per cabinet or for the whole order. Records exclusions instead of averaging unlike offers.

Indoor led display quotes on one configuration basis
Indoor Led Display Sourcing collects the screen brief before any factory is asked to price it. A usable comparison uses the same cabinet or module geometry, the same pixel pitch, the same quantity, the same US destination and the same delivered scope. Headline brightness or a catalog photo is not that basis.
State what is still open: viewing distance, front or rear service access, control interface, power and whether commissioning is inside the quotation. Those gaps stay visible so two proposals are not treated as equal when the attachments differ.

Evidence to request for the exact proposed model
A public indoor video-display page can show which attributes a manufacturer exposes, including pixel configuration, pixel pitch, brightness, viewing angle, color capacity and installation context. That observation comes from a product-family reference and does not transfer ratings, stock or certificates to this desk. Ask each proposed supplier to bind the row below to its named model.
One way a buyer writes the open line, which is an input and not a measurement published by this desk, is: pixel pitch 1.8 mm, active area 4800 mm by 2700 mm, brightness target 600 cd/m2, input voltage 120 V at 60 Hz, ambient temperature 18 to 26 C, duty cycle 14 hours per day. The return quotation still has to name ingress protection if any mark is offered, the commissioning scope, and the test basis behind the nit figure.
| Check | What the quotation should identify | Who confirms it |
|---|---|---|
| Pixel pitch and resolution | Pitch, module pixel count and the finished wall resolution at the stated size | Proposed supplier on the datasheet for that model |
| Brightness and refresh | Nit figure and refresh rate with the test basis, not a marketing line alone | Proposed supplier, then buyer engineering review |
| Power and heat | Input voltage, frequency, phase, typical and maximum load, ambient temperature | Proposed supplier plus the site electrical reviewer |
| Drawings | Cabinet or module drawing, service clearance and mounting points | Proposed supplier drawing issue, buyer approval |
| Control interface | Sending path, signal input and what software is included or excluded | Proposed supplier; buyer content team checks the workflow |
| Documents | Applicable safety or emissions files tied to the exact model and market | Proposed supplier; this desk does not issue them |
Read the procurement brief for the longer checklist, then compare inquiry configurations or open the wall selection notes.
Who owns which question before the RFQ
Engineering
Writes pixel pitch, finished size, brightness target and the power available at the wall. Marks unknown values as unknown rather than borrowing another project.
Operations
Describes content hours, ambient light and how modules will be reached for service. A lobby that closes overnight is a different duty note from a 24-hour control room.
Quality
Lists the factory acceptance test, incoming visual check and which certificate must name the proposed model. A family-level brochure is logged as a gap.
The shared handoff is one brief. Manufacturer matching starts only after that brief names the open points.
Questions about comparing display quotations
Why can two cabinet prices not be lined up yet?
One offer may include receiving cards, flight cases and a spare module set. Another may stop at the cabinet and leave freight, commissioning and the processor outside. Line those rows up before the unit price is discussed.
Which commercial fields need the same wording?
Quantity, currency, per-unit or whole-order basis, Incoterm, who pays freight and duties, and the destination city or site. A different Incoterm changes delivered cost even when the cabinet name looks similar.
Where do spares and consumables sit?
Ask whether the first spare modules, power supplies and receiving cards are inside the price or listed as options. Also ask how long those parts are offered for the named model. This desk does not publish a spare-life figure.
What stays out of the comparison until documents arrive?
Any claim of stock, a fixed lead time, or a safety mark that is not attached to the proposed model and supplier. Those items stay in the open column of the brief.
Prepare a comparable quotation scope
Send the product family, pixel pitch, dimensions, quantity, US destination and requested timing. Optional budget and a high-end, mid-range, budget-friendly or undecided supplier preference can travel in the same note. Price and schedule are confirmed only after factories answer.
