DIRECT ANSWERTurn a one-sentence vessel request into a controlled question list: service and fluid, required function, quantity, design cases, size or capacity, site, interfaces, schedule and responsible designer. Keep unknown values open and start only a conditional discussion.
First-pass question list
- What must the equipment do and with which medium?
- What are the operating and design cases?
- Where will it connect and be installed?
- Which drawings, standards and delivery date exist?
Relevant manufacturing capability
- Drawing, datasheet and equipment-list manufacturability review
- Self-manufactured and coordinated-supply scope identification
- Technical, quality, document and delivery clarification
Key notes
- Do not convert a salesperson's rough phrase into an approved pressure design input.
