For the elaboration of the FF&E specifications,
Alabaska inc. has already researched and determined the best
sources for the procurement of goods at the best price in
relation to quality standards expected.
Purchasing is often directly from the manufacturer (ie
carpet, casegoods, et…). Additional volume discounts are
expected as often as possible. The designer submits samples
of all custom items for review.
Following agreement on pricing and review of all samples
prototypes or alternates, a final order in the form of a P.O
is issued.
The selection of suppliers and manufacturers is based on
the following conditions:
- Quality of the service offered
- Previous experience
- Quality assurance of their products
- Pricing
- Assurance of timely delivery
These conditions will be analyzed before a contract is
awarded. One of a kind items or specialty product will not
be subjected to the tendering of competitive bid process.
Contract will be awarded and sealed with the issuing of a
P.O following negotiation of best price.
