The GSG-Tech Online Quotation Platform is an all-in-one digital system designed to integrate design upload, manufacturing configuration, quotation, order management, payment, and logistics into a single workflow. Instead of managing custom manufacturing across multiple tools and communication channels, users can complete the entire process—from design to delivery—within one centralized platform.

This guide combines the official platform operation guide and real user workflow to walk you through each step, helping you understand how to efficiently use the platform for custom parts manufacturing.

Step 1: Register an Account

Before using the platform, you need to create an account. Simply enter your email address and basic information, set a password, and click Sign Up to complete the registration. Registration is free and does not require placing an order.

Creating an account allows you to save projects, manage quotations, track orders, and store all manufacturing data securely in one place. It also ensures that your contact information is available for quotation, communication, and order processing.

Step 2: Log In to the Platform

Once registered, log in using your email address and password. After logging in, you will be taken to your personal dashboard, where you can access your projects, uploaded files, quotations, and orders.

This dashboard acts as your central workspace for all manufacturing activities on the platform.

Step 3: Upload Design Files and Create a Project

To start a new quotation, go to the Upload Files area and upload your design files. The platform supports multiple mainstream formats such as STEP, STL, and IGES, and allows batch uploads of multiple files at once.

After uploading, the system automatically recognizes the basic structural information of each part, preparing the data for manufacturing configuration and quotation.

After uploading the file and completing the configuration, the system will prompt you to confirm whether the parts are subject to export control regulations. This applies to parts that may involve sensitive information regulated by U.S. government export control laws, such as defense or aerospace-related components.

Step 4: Configure Manufacturing Parameters

Once the parts are uploaded, click Configure to edit the part details. On the configuration page, you can define all key manufacturing parameters, including:

l Manufacturing process

l Material

l Surface treatment

l Quantity

l Tolerance

l Threading or tapping requirements

The platform currently provides instant quotation support for CNC machining, sheet metal fabrication, 3D printing, vacuum casting, and injection molding. Based on your selections, the system will display pricing and estimated lead time in real time.

If no 2D drawing has been uploaded, the system prompt you to upload one to ensure manufacturing accuracy, especially for precision parts.

In the Remark field, you can enter any additional information that is not covered by the standard configuration options. This includes special tolerance requirements, color specifications, material details, critical dimensions, or any other process-related instructions that need to be highlighted for manufacturing.

The remark section serves as a key communication channel between you and the engineering team. By clearly describing special requirements or non-standard conditions here, you help ensure that important details are not overlooked during production and that the final parts meet your exact technical expectations.

Step 5: Get Engineering Support for Special Requirements

If you encounter uncertain parameters, complex structures, or special process requirements, you can submit the current configuration even if it is not fully finalized.

The system will automatically flag the relevant information, and a sales engineer will intervene during the configuration stage to help confirm key technical parameters. This ensures that manufacturing requirements are validated by professionals before moving forward, reducing the risk of errors or rework.

Step 6: Review Part Details and Quotation

Before proceeding, you can review all part details on the part information page. This includes selected processes, materials, quantities, surface finishes, tolerances, and any special requirements.

The system also displays the quotation results in real time, including price and lead time. You can choose between standard economy delivery or expedited production.

This step ensures that all technical and commercial information is accurate before order submission.

Step 7: View Real-Time Pricing and Lead Time

After completing the part configuration, the system will automatically generate a quotation based on your selected parameters. Both the estimated price and lead time are displayed in real time, allowing you to immediately understand the cost and delivery schedule for your project.

At this stage, you can choose between different production options, such as Standard Economy or Expedited manufacturing, depending on your urgency and budget. The system will dynamically update the pricing and lead time based on your selection.

This step gives you full visibility into the commercial and delivery aspects of your order before moving on to logistics and payment.

Step 8: Set Up Logistics and Packaging

Next, you can configure logistics settings. The platform supports major international carriers such as DHL, UPS, and FedEx, and also allows you to arrange shipping using your own courier account.

You can also select suitable packaging boxes based on part size and shipping requirements. Multiple standard box sizes are available to ensure parts are properly protected during transportation.

After entering the shipping address, the system will immediately update and display the final price.

Step 9: Confirm Order and Complete Payment

Once all configurations are finalized, you can proceed to order confirmation and payment. The platform supports PayPal account payments as well as debit and credit card payments powered by PayPal.

All order details and payment amounts are clearly displayed before submission. After successful payment, the order officially enters the production stage.

Step 10: Track Quotations, Orders, and Production

After placing an order, you can manage everything from your dashboard:

l My Quotes: Search by quote number or filter by date to view quote status, shipping address, lead time, and total price.

l My Orders: View all orders with details such as order number, shipping time, logistics type, lead time, and total cost.

l My Files: Centrally manage all uploaded part files, including part name, quote number, part ID, and creation time.

l Personal Center: View and manage your personal information, email address, and password.

During production, the platform continuously updates manufacturing and shipping status, allowing you to track progress and logistics milestones in real time.

A Fully Integrated Manufacturing Workflow

From account registration and design upload to manufacturing configuration, quotation, payment, production tracking, and delivery, the entire custom manufacturing process is completed within one unified platform.

By consolidating all workflows into a single digital system, GSG-Tech eliminates the fragmentation of traditional manufacturing coordination and replaces it with a clear, structured, and transparent process. This makes custom manufacturing not only faster, but also more reliable, traceable, and easier to manage—from design to delivery.
