Request for Quote (RFQ) Process

Need pricing on a product or a full project? Here's how to get a fast, accurate quote from PES Supply.

What to Include in Your RFQ

  1. Product names or manufacturer part numbers (MPNs) — be as specific as possible

  2. Quantities for each line item

  3. Delivery zip code — so we can calculate freight

  4. Timeline — when do you need delivery?

  5. Brand preferences — or tell us if you're open to alternatives

How to Submit

  • Chat: Click the chat bubble and tell us what you need

  • Phone: 888-876-0007 (Mon-Fri 8AM-6PM CT)

  • BOM: Paste your entire bill of materials in chat — see our BOM Submission Guide

What Happens Next

  1. We check availability across our 300+ manufacturer network

  2. You receive an itemized quote with product pricing and freight

  3. We flag any items that are discontinued, backordered, or have better alternatives

  4. Once approved, we process the order and arrange shipping through Portlandia Logistics

Bulk Orders

For orders of 10+ units of the same SKU, additional volume discounts may apply. We force suppliers to itemize down to individual fasteners — nothing is hidden in a lump sum.

Trade Pricing

Trade pricing is our standard rate, not a special promotion. If you're a contractor, installer, developer, or distributor, you automatically qualify. See our Price Match Guarantee for more.
