Measurement Handoff Before the China MTM Sample Clock Starts
The sample clock does not start when you “open a chat.” It starts when the measurement handoff is complete enough to cut: measurements (or a shop’s agreed form), cloth path, and construction lock. Shi Yuan Suit Factory runs sample 7–14 days after that lock, then production 14–21 days after written sample approval on MTM from 1 (or after seal for bulk from 50). Production window ≠ delivery date. Wikipedia’s anthropometry entry describes systematic measurement of the human body — the scientific frame behind tape-and-form work shops send factories. We do not invent a fixed field count here; use your shop’s form and confirm units and posture notes in writing.
What must hand off before the sample clock?
| Handoff item | What “done” looks like | Why the clock waits |
|---|---|---|
| Measurements | Shop form complete; units (cm/in) stated; posture / ease notes if your program uses them | Incomplete measures force rework before cut |
| Cloth | Stock on hand or mill indent timing stated | No cloth → no sample cut |
| Construction | Fused / half canvas / full canvas chosen | Canvas choice changes the sample |
| Track | MTM from 1 vs bulk-from-50 sample path named | Different approval paths after sample |
| Written lock | WhatsApp confirmation of the above | Briefs without writing restart the clock |

FAQ
When does the Shi Yuan MTM sample clock start?
After measurements, cloth availability, and construction (fused / half / full canvas) are locked in writing. Then sample 7–14 days.
Do you publish a fixed number of measurement fields?
No. Use your boutique’s form; confirm units and any ease notes on WhatsApp. We do not invent a public field count.
How does bulk from 50 relate to measurement handoff?
Bulk from 50 follows a sealed sample. Measurement handoff still matters for the sample that locks the run; production 14–21 starts after written seal. Production ≠ delivery.
