Engineering Support

Most companies are more comfortable working with local companies on engineering new product prototypes. This sounds logical considering China is on the other side of the world. In addition to design and engineering procurement support from China, considerations include protecting intellectual property, feasibility studies, blueprints, technical drawings, mass production, and packaging.

However, companies should consider the cost savings of moving engineering and prototyping work to China. SF International Trade Co., Limited is an experienced and professional partner. We have helped dozens of customers develop their products from concept to production to the marketplace, with our own in-house design and engineering teams combining excellence with cost savings.

We have qualified quality inspectors and auditors in different fields all over China. Our mission is to ensure your products purchased in China meet your specifications, quality standards, and safety requirements before they leave China's border. Our cautious quality inspection at different stages of production helps find most quality problems — so you always know production status and can request corrections at the factory even when far away. We can finish one order inspection within one work day and present the detailed report within 24 hours after inspection.

The international marketplace is becoming a very dynamic place to expand your business. Many businesses and individuals are learning how to be a "smart" buyer — leveraging buying power to ship goods at very low prices.

Shipment Consolidation is the act of buying products from multiple suppliers in China and putting all goods into one container for international shipping. The savvy international buyer who takes advantage of shipment consolidation gets:

1. ONE tracking number
2. ONE customs clearance
3. ONE company that handles consolidation and customs paperwork
4. ONE international charge

The benefit isn't only efficiency and cost — it's the value-adds. Shipment consolidation is the wave of the future for international commerce and logistics.

Pricing: Depends on the project.

To evaluate and consolidate your sample order, our process:

1. Receive instruction from our customer.
2. Contact supplier(s) by phone.
3. Instruct suppliers to send samples to the office.
4. Consolidate samples and check total volume and weight.
5. Quote all costs to customer; customer makes payment to us.
6. Ship by express to address of customer's choosing.

Advantages of using us to consolidate your samples

1. Quick check for quality before express fees are wasted on faulty samples.
2. Big savings on the number of international wiring fees.
3. We speak the language and arrange with many factories simultaneously.
4. High weekly volumes give us great express discounts (FedEx, TNT, DHL, UPS, etc.) — passed on to you.

Pricing: 50 USD basic charge + actual courier cost.

Starting from order scheduling, we trace sample, material, molding & tooling, order accessories, production, inspection, shipment, and even payment.

When dealing with several orders at different factories simultaneously, it isn't easy to stay abreast of estimated production schedules. Compound that with the fact that factories often aren't informative or open about their own schedules, and orders may be delayed. SF International Trade Co., Limited has the capability to constantly check on the status of your orders, accessible to you online 24/7.

We contact your suppliers regularly and update you about the current situation. If the factory is behind for any reason, you'll be notified — and we provide many action options to push the factory back on schedule.

Our Follow-Up Procedure

1. Order begins.
2. We enter the order into our database with full projections (PO + factory info).
3. Contact supplier at least twice per week and update the system.
4. Update customer with a Weekly Update by email.
5. Plan inspection at least 1 week in advance (if applicable).

SF International Trade Co., Limited's professional inspectors visit the factory on site and do random sampling and relevant checking from semi-finished or packed products during mass production.

1. Check safety performance / practicality / appearance.
2. Upon identifying defects, take corrective action accordingly.
3. Check details of the product against desired inspection standards.
4. Focus on key points of the products.
5. Record findings and take samples for further re-checking if necessary.
6. Inform customer of irreparable defects.
7. Take photos of all defects.

Proper preparation and evaluation before an order is placed can prevent big headaches down the road. Our QA service helps you avoid large-scale issues in mass production, with effective corrective measures, danger areas to watch, and suggestions — all reported alongside production efficiency and estimated delivery time.
