CAL 133, BIFMA, flammability ratings, weight capacity, cleanability: answered from each brand spec sheet and test reports.

COM approvals

COM-approved frames with yardage requirements and grade pricing. A&D clients see which pieces accept their specified fabrics.

Project lead times

Lead times by quantity for project orders, from each brand’s own schedule, priced with your project discounts.

How contract and hospitality showrooms use Sourcebook

Contract showrooms serve architects, designers, and procurement teams specifying furniture for commercial installations. Every project requires compliance certifications, durability specifications, and quantity-based pricing with tight bid deadlines. Sourcebook organizes technical documentation so your team provides complete specifications without chasing test reports from multiple manufacturers.

Compliance documentation

Load test reports and certifications for each contract brand: CAL 133 fire resistance, BIFMA durability standards, ACT performance ratings, cleanability protocols. A&D teams search by required certifications and see qualifying products with current test documentation and compliance dates.

Project quantity pricing

Set pricing tiers based on project quantities: 1-25 pieces at one price, 26-100 pieces at volume pricing, 100+ pieces at project pricing. A&D teams see pricing and lead times for their order quantity. Brands with contract programs get exposure through project-tier visibility.

Installation coordination

Track project delivery schedules with phased shipments: phase 1 lobby furniture, phase 2 guest rooms, phase 3 banquet spaces. Coordinate installation timelines across multiple brands and product categories. A&D teams see consolidated delivery schedules for complete projects.

Questions for contract & hospitality showrooms

How do you load certifications and test reports?

We load each brand spec sheet with CAL 133 fire test results, BIFMA durability certifications, ACT performance ratings, weight capacity data, and cleanability test results. A&D clients search by any certification and see matches across all brands with complete specs, test dates, and current compliance status.

Can A&D clients filter by specific certifications?

Yes. A&D clients search for CAL 133 compliant seating, BIFMA level 2 certified desks, or ACT heavy-duty upholstery. Sourcebook shows matches from every brand with those certifications, priced for project quantities with current lead times and compliance documentation.

What if project lead times differ from standard lead times?

We load quantity-based lead time rules per brand. When an A&D client asks for 100 pieces, Sourcebook shows the project lead time and pricing tier for that quantity, different from the 1-10 piece retail lead time. Brands quote realistic production schedules based on project size.

Do you handle project bid tracking?

Yes. When an A&D client requests specs for a project, Sourcebook logs the project name, firm, bid deadline, and specification requirements. You see all active bids with deadlines, can track which projects close and convert to orders, and identify repeat clients for your contract business.

Can we generate spec sheets for contractor bidding?

Yes. A&D clients build project furniture schedules with pieces from multiple brands. Export complete spec sheets as PDF with certifications, dimensions, weight capacity, finishes, and quantities. Contractors use these specs for installation bidding with complete technical documentation.

How do we coordinate phased delivery for large projects?

Tag project phases: lobby furniture phase 1, guest rooms phase 2, conference spaces phase 3. Each phase has delivery dates and brand lead times. Coordinate installation schedules with general contractors and see which brands ship when for each project phase.
