OSDA Quoting Fundamentals: Accuracy & Speed
At OSDA, our ability to quote with precision, speed and competitive pricing, relies on our execution of very specific processes.
When you are ready to request a quote from OSDA we need the following information to be able to quote in a timely fashion.
Please check your files and provide as much detail as possible. Remember to include information such as:
- Turn-Key / Consigned Material / Partial Turnkey
- RoHS Processing

- Best Price or Minimal Lead time
To ensure your quote can be processed promptly, please provide OSDA with a Bill of Materials in excel format that consists of the following: Please separate all categories in their own respective columns
