Decision 1

Separate the cost drivers

Record structure, material, print coverage, inserts, artwork versions and assembly. Compare proposals with the same scope instead of borrowing a percentage-saving claim from another shipment.

Decision 2

Measure the completed parcel

Provide assembled outer dimensions, loaded weight, destination and service assumptions for the logistics quote. Evaluate packaging and transport together only after their respective terms and exclusions are clear.
