Information in a sourcing request

The procurement form asks for a contact name, work email, company, optional phone and purchase requirements. Your brief can include part references, vehicle application, quantities, timing and destination. Optional budget and supplier preferences become part of the brief when you submit.

How a brief is used

We use inquiry details to understand the requirement, contact the business buyer and seek responses for the requested scope. When discussing a possible quote, relevant product and order requirements may be shared with prospective suppliers. Keep personal identifiers, payment information and confidential documents out of the initial brief. Describe the technical issue first and discuss document handling before sending confidential drawings or other restricted application records.

Keeping the request current

When updating an existing inquiry, use the business contact and part reference from the original request. Explain which details are changing, such as the delivery location or the buyer responsible for fitment review. That helps distinguish the current requirement from earlier versions of the same request.

Minimum information for review

Business contact details and an application description usually provide enough context for an initial discussion. Use an internal reference for your own records when possible. Check that you have permission to share any contact information or design details that belong to another organization.

Browser storage

The site stores when the sourcing support notice was first shown so it can limit the display window to seven days. Session storage records dismissal of the ticker during the visit. These records govern the notice independently of inquiry details.

Questions or corrections

Use the procurement contact page to request a correction to information you provided or to ask how an inquiry is being handled. Identify the request by company and reference product so we can locate the right brief.
