Framing & delivery
Compare rolled, stretched and framed supply, then plan packing, local preparation, arrival inspection and the contact route.
Compare the complete object you will display rather than only the artwork price. Rolled canvas can require local stretching or framing, while framed supply needs confirmed outer dimensions, hardware and packing. Include local preparation and arrival inspection in the plan before using a shipment estimate as the date the work will be ready.
Keep the approved artwork, delivery format and destination connected in the order record. Ask which condition views and arrival instructions are included, and identify the contact for a concern. XM coordinates the selected finish and export information through the project desk. The actual commercial, shipping and remedy terms remain specific to the confirmed order.
