Import Order Management

Let us manage your supplier while you focus on your business at home

To help you prioritise your business whilst still benefiting from the low costs of manufacturing in China, we can provide you with your very own import management team. When selecting this service, China Blueprint effectively becomes your import office, managing the many communications, risks and unique challenges that importing from China presents. It allows you the confidence to import, knowing that you will receive the products you have ordered and focus your time on your business at home. 

Our import order management service is designed to help you reduce the time you need to spend on managing your order, reduce the associated risk and put in place important checks and measures to ensure everything goes to plan.     

You still make the key decisions regarding your order, we simply act as your import department.

What's included;

Coordination of following activities between you and your supplier regarding;

  • Product/materials specifications
  • Contracts
  • Moulding/tooling/pattern making
  • Sample ordering
  • Materials testing
  • Project reporting
  • Quality management considerations
  • Negotiations
  • Invoicing preparations
  • Document control
  • Inspection coordination & reporting
  • Logistics coordination
Note: Inspections are optional and must be booked as an additional service.

Why let us do it?

Whilst still maintaining control and decision making over all stages, you gain the confidence of knowing that experienced importers are handling your project. Our trade consultants know when and how to implement each stage of the import to ensure manufacturing transparency, control and quality assurance, leaving you time to focus on matters such as marketing and managing your home business.

What does it cost?

At the beginning of the project we will allocate a set number of hours to achieve the finished outcome. You maintain control over your total cost allocation to the project. It’s more flexible than hiring your own team in house – as you can increase or decrease our work load at anytime. China Blueprint services are designed to make your project viable and are costed in a way to ensure profitability. They suit businesses small and large.

Case Study – Import Order Management

Client: A pool products importer
Services: Sourcing and import management, inspection

The client, who is an Australian pool designer and instillation company, needed to source China based suppliers of home swimming pool related accessories as well as surface finishes for their pools. 

China Blueprint assisted by firstly sourcing a range of suppliers for the client. They then worked with the suppliers to produce approved samples of final products that would be imported.  These products included items such as pool lighting that was required to meet Australian electrical standards and to possess certain water proof qualities, as well as pool surfaces that whilst rudimentary in their manufacturing process, required strict quality control at the final stages to ensure no impurities were transferred to the product. The client orders from these suppliers on a regular basis and all communications are facilitated through the China Blueprint team utilising our Import Order Management Service.
