Confirm the buyer’s OE cross reference, axle and mounting interface. Mark whether the drawing or the buyer-approved sample governs the quote.
Match each claim to an issuer, part number, drawing revision and target market. This independent desk coordinates the review and records questions for the supplier, inspector or buyer.

Align part revision, carton count, MOQ basis, sample fee and named Incoterm. An apparently cheaper bearing-only quote may leave hardware to another purchase.
Agree what to check independently and how to handle deviations. Compare the sample's lot mark, flange drawing and encoder orientation before the buyer decides. A stock program needs a current availability check against the same revision. A custom line may need another sample and a documented change before it can be released.
Match packed quantities and carton marks to purchase lines. Forward the approved records to the buyer and appointed logistics party.
Request a file for each checkpoint and keep the decision tied to the quoted part revision.
Match the entity and address on the quotation to the manufacturing site named in the supplier’s records. Ask which organization owns lot traceability for a subcontracted step.
Agree the sample ID, mounting datum and measurement instrument. For radial runout or lateral runout, record the fixture and datum, measuring face, gauge ID, rotation procedure and measured excursion in mm. Compare the measurement with the part-specific limit on the approved drawing and attach the lot and sample IDs.
Check entity, site, scope and dates on any IATF 16949 or ISO 9001 evidence. For product-specific evidence, match the report identifier and tested sample to the destination and SKU.
An integrated hub can reduce workshop setup where the platform supports it. A serviceable bearing can retain the hub if the flange and seating surfaces remain within the buyer’s criteria.
When applicable, document the ABS encoder ring type, pole count or connector, test setup and agreed reference. Matching diameter alone leaves the signal interface unresolved.
Retain the approved sample revision, checklist date and open exceptions. Recheck when the supplier changes the bearing, seal, encoder or packing configuration.
