Whatever you discuss and if any commitments have been given by the supplier, insist to offer all those details in writing along with their quotation offer, so that no decision is taken on the basis of just promise or assumption.
You must also get the details about their labor jobs (if any) in writing too, so that it can also be considered while making decision.
