See how close the fit is
Exact matches, near matches, and alternatives are labeled separately so a substitute is not mistaken for the specified product.
A match should mean what it says.
When the exact item is hard to find, understand what changed before deciding whether another option works for your job.
| Feature | What it means | What to review |
|---|---|---|
| Exact match | Same manufacturer, product, model, and specification. | Confirm quantity, price, and supplier availability. |
| Near match | Same basic product, with one or more specifications differing. | Check the stated differences against the job requirements. |
| Alternative | A different product or manufacturer that appears to meet the stated requirements. | Verify compatibility and suitability before purchase. |
From jobsite request to a clearer shortlist.
Keep the important requirements visible as you compare options.
