Buyer FAQ
Questions buyers ask before sending drawings
Is this a substitute for local engineering approval?
No. YYN can support China-side sourcing and records, but local engineering approval and authority requirements must stay with local professionals.
When should the buyer define record requirements?
Record requirements should be defined before formal order so the factory and follow-up team know what to collect.
Can YYN review projects from 50 tons?
Yes. Projects from 50 tons can be reviewed, with final factory matching depending on project fit and availability.
