01
Use fields that fit the product family
Pipe may need schedule and length; a valve may need type, end connection and actuation. Avoid applying the same mandatory fields to every item.
Websites for pipe, valve and fitting distributors.
A catalog and RFQ journey for pipe, valve and fitting distributors, with clear product families, connection details and specification review.

The task
A line item the sales team can review.
Nominal size alone does not describe a fitting. Connection standard, material and product-specific ratings need to remain visible, especially when a buyer is matching an existing installation.
Example RFQ structure
- Product
- Pipe, valve or fitting reference
- Connections
- Size, standard and end configuration
- Specification
- Approved material, schedule or rating where relevant
- Quantity
- Units, required date and delivery location
Designed around the next step.
02
Make connection distinctions visible
Keep the approved connection standard alongside size. Do not suggest that similarly named or sized connections are interchangeable.
03
Preserve each requested line
Carry the product reference, quantity and unit into the quote request. A multi-item inquiry should still be readable by the sales team.
Try the intake pattern
Pipe, valve or fitting request
Try it with sample details to see what your sales team receives. Nothing is sent.
Use “unknown” wherever the technical team needs to help.
Request for technical review
Specification, suitability, availability and price remain to be confirmed by the supplier.
What’s included.
- A catalog structure for agreed pipe, valve and fitting families.
- Family-specific attribute mapping and specification references.
- A quote brief that retains line-item and delivery details.
- Checks for missing units, inconsistent identifiers and update ownership.
Before we begin.
Begin with approved records
Supply current product sheets and the fields your sales team actually uses. Resolve contradictory specifications before importing.
Keep engineering approval separate
The website presents approved data and collects requests. Pressure, temperature, media compatibility and substitution decisions remain with the responsible team.
