partZpro® Platform FAQ

The "Open-Book" Platform Model

Q: Why is there a factory invoice in the box?
That is the Commercial Import Invoice provided by the partner facility. Because the platform facilitates Factory Direct logistical routing, international customs requires documentation from the third-party manufacturer of record.
  • Transparency & Compliance: This invoice identifies the origin partner facility and declares the exact market value of the goods to ensure proper regulatory reporting.
  • Compliance: The platform ensures the commercial documentation aligns with your transaction value for accurate customs classification.
Q: Why don't you offer Instant Quotes?
Data Integrity: Automated estimates often lack the precision required for high-spec engineering. We utilize a **partner-side validation process** where the manufacturing partner audits the CAM strategy before a binding price is issued. This ensures that the price you receive is professionally validated and final.
Q: Why should I order through the platform rather than direct?
Legal & Financial Infrastructure: While our terms include standard non-circumvention clauses, clients stay for the **US Shield**. When you order through partZpro, your funds are held in a **Secure US Escrow**. Creative Objex LLC provides the legal leverage and financial security that you lose when attempting to manage international vendors independently.
Q: What exactly does your Service Fee cover?
The fee covers Financial Guardrails, Partner Network Vetting, AI Design Auditing, and Professional Project Coordination. Creative Objex LLC acts as your US-based digital firewall, managing the administrative and financial risks of the production cycle.

Logistics, Customs & AI Technology

Q: Who handles the HTS Codes and Customs paperwork?
The Platform’s AI facilitates the technical classification.
  • Heavy AI Analysis: Our proprietary software performs a 40-point analysis of your geometry to identify the most accurate US Government HTS classification.
  • The Process: This data is digitally provided to the carrier. As the importer of record, you simply verify the automated classification to authorize the release of the shipment.
Q: How fast is shipping?
The platform’s **direct-ship model** removes redundant logistics layers. By routing shipments directly from the vetted partner facility to your location, transit times are typically reduced to 3–5 days.

Quality Compliance & Financial Safeguards

Q: How is quality managed without a domestic warehouse?
We utilize a **Digital Quality Management** model. All partner facilities are required to perform rigorous internal QC based on platform standards prior to shipment.

By coordinating a **Dock-to-Stock** flow, we eliminate the physical handling risks and delays of third-party warehousing. Quality is enforced through our US Shield Financial Holdback, ensuring the manufacturer is only funded upon your professional verification.
Q: What happens if the parts arrive out of spec?
You are protected by our **Satisfaction Safeguards**. Since Creative Objex LLC holds the project funds in escrow, the third-party manufacturer is not paid until you approve the order.

The Process: You have a 3-Day Verification Window upon delivery. If parts are non-conforming, the platform facilitates a priority remake at the partner's expense or manages a refund through the escrow account.

Corporate Orders

Q: Can we pay via Purchase Order (PO)?
Yes. Creative Objex LLC specializes in providing professional procurement infrastructure for engineering departments.
  • PO Workflow: You can select "Pay via PO / Wire" at checkout. Upon verification of your corporate credentials, the platform issues the necessary financial instructions to initiate the project.
