STANDARDIZED COLLABORATION S.O.P
How It Works: Our Turnkey Project Flow
A structured, milestone-driven framework designed to coordinate bespoke FF&E execution with full cost transparency and local project support.


PHASE 01
Trade Onboarding & Shop Drawing Alignment
-
Specification Review: We review CAD drawings, material schedules, and 3D renderings to assess structural feasibility and millwork joinery.
-
Technical Shop Drawings: 1:1 cross-section shop drawings are submitted for designer sign-off prior to releasing orders into production.
-
Transparent Costing: Itemized quotations clearly separate factory fabrication estimates from the flat 10% operational coordination fee.

PHASE 02
Finish Approvals & Material Conditioning
-
Physical Swatches: Leather grades, textile cuts, wood finishes (matte sheens), and stone samples are provided for physical verification.
-
Moisture Content Control: Solid wood and veneer substrates undergo specialized kiln-drying (targeting 8%–10% EMC) to minimize natural expansion/contraction under North American climate conditioning.
-
Sample Credit Policy: Swatch package deposits are credited directly toward your final project order upon contract execution.

PHASE 03
Milestone Invoicing & Pre-Shipment Settlement (50/50)
-
50% Production Deposit: Released upon formal 1:1 shop drawing and material spec approval to secure raw materials and reserve factory line capacity.
-
50% Pre-Shipment Balance (100% Settled Before Departure): Invoiced only after factory trial assemblies and HD video QC inspection reports are digitally approved by your team. All project balances must be 100% cleared prior to export container loading and vessel departure.
-
Corporate Invoicing: Invoiced formally via Anniora Living Inc., supporting commercial wire transfers, USD/CAD settlements, and standard business tax accounting.
PHASE 05
Export Packaging & Coordinated Freight
-
Transit Protection: Products are packaged with multi-layer foam, edge protectors, and non-fumigation plywood crating designed for ocean freight.
-
Cargo Insurance & Logistics: Marine cargo insurance is coordinated for transit stages. Ocean freight and customs clearance are passed through based on carrier invoices.

PHASE 06
White-Glove Delivery & Lifecycle Maintenance Support
-
White-Glove Placement: Local delivery partners facilitate room-of-choice placement, uncrating, basic assembly, and complete debris removal.
-
1-Year Limited Structural Warranty: Covers manufacturing defects under normal commercial/residential use, with complimentary touch-up materials supplied upon installation.
-
Lifetime Maintenance & Paid Component Support: Post-warranty repairs, leather reconditioning, and hardware/part replacements are continuously supported through local technicians and direct factory supply on a transparent, fee-for-service basis.

* Trade Notice & Disclaimer: Natural materials (solid wood, marble, top-grain leather) inherently feature unique grain, texture variations, and natural acclimation characteristics. Standard manufacturing tolerances apply across all upholstered and custom millwork elements. Standard 1-year limited warranty excludes normal wear, tear, or environmental misuse. Long-term repairs and spare parts are provided on a fee-for-service basis. Complete terms, lead-time estimates, and logistics arrangements are formally detailed in individual project purchase agreements.
