Deliverables
Please visit our parent company, Toolless for more information.
During the design phase of a project, there are three primary deliverables that the customer will receive from PEI.
Quotation Document
The first is the estimate or quotation, which is submitted to the customer after the initial design has been reviewed and a cost evaluation has been completed. Our policy is to present all pricing and delivery data in written form so as to eliminate any chance of confusion or miscommunications. Due to the complexity of many of our projects, we may ultimately submit a number of quotations as the design project progresses and the enclosure evolves.
Assembly Drawing
The second deliverable is sent when our engineers complete the development of the assembly model. At that time, the customer will receive an .IGS, .DXF, .JPG or .PDF file of the assembly via e-mail, along with an approval form to be completed and returned to PEI. If a customer does not have CAD capabilities or wishes to receive hard copy drawings of their assembly model, we will gladly fax 'A' size (8 1/2 x 11) drawings. For customers who require Mylar drawings, we can supply those in 'B', 'C', or 'D' sizes.
Please note that hardcopy drawings submitted on Mylar or on large format paper (sizes , 'B', 'C', or 'D') and/or drawings sent via UPS, FedEx, or USPS may incur an additional fee to cover the cost for that service. For more information about PEI supplied drawings and files, please visit our Documents web page.
Prototype Part
The third deliverable the customer will receive within a project's design phase is the prototype part. As with the submittal of the assembly drawing, the prototype part is accompanied by an approval form that must be signed and returned to PEI before production parts can be manufactured. If the enclosure requires changes, then some or all of another set of deliverables will be required.
