Module 16: Tiered Quotation Architecture & Sample Archive SOP governs commercial proposals and physical sample management at GUANGHE SAFETY. To eliminate single-option decision friction, our engineering desk presents quotations in a Good / Better / Best Framework: Good Tier (Entry / High-Volume): Standard cow suede/split upper, 200J steel toe, steel plate midsole, single-density PU injection sole (optimized for entry price and fleet tenders); Better Tier (Recommended Mainstream): 1.8mm embossed action leather or flyknit upper, 200J steel toe, 1,100N Kevlar midsole, dual-density PU/PU sole with custom branded color box; Best Tier (Flagship Technical): 2.0mm waterproof full-grain cowhide, ultra-light composite toe, multi-layer aramid Strobel, 300°C HRO rubber or E-TPU rebound midsole. Every physical sample is tagged with a unique barcode (e.g. `SMP-GH-2026-088`), photographed, documented in our archive register, and must receive written client sign-off before mass manufacturing can proceed.
