Tells suppliers how mature the requirement is and how to structure their quote.

3c. How do you want to procure the project?

Large projects can go to one qualified turnkey integrator or EPC partner, or be split into equipment packages. HatchMatch does not build or install — the selected partner is responsible for execution.

3d. Scope details (optional)

Services the supplier should include

4. Estimated CAPEX / procurement value (USD)

Select the bracket that best matches your allocated or anticipated budget. This helps us route the RFQ to suppliers with the right project capacity.

4b. What are you looking for?

Pick all that apply.

4c. Preferred suppliers or brands (optional)

If you already have suppliers or equipment brands in mind, list them (comma-separated). We benchmark them against comparable qualified alternatives — vendor-neutral, no lock-in.

4d. Preferred technical specification (optional)

House size, climate zone, production target, equipment standards, Incoterms, warranty terms, or any must-have scope items. The more specific, the more comparable the quotes.

4e. Target quote submission date (optional)

When do you need supplier proposals back? We align outreach and reminders to this date.

6c. Equipment details (optional)

6d. Incubator (setter) capacity

Egg capacity per setter batch. Hatchery suppliers size setters, hatchers, HVAC and standby power from this number — stating it removes one full clarification round.

6e. Biosecurity requirements

Select every measure that must be included in scope. Biosecurity is a major cost driver — unstated requirements are the most common reason quotes are not comparable.

6f. Backup power requirement

Ventilation and incubation cannot tolerate outages. Tell suppliers the redundancy level you expect so generators, ATS panels and UPS are priced inside the quote — not added later as a variation.

You can submit now, but adding incubator capacity, biosecurity requirements, backup power level usually removes a full clarification round and gets firmer pricing.

Financing, when relevant, is provided by independent third-party partners, subject to approval.

Solar poultry — frequently asked

What PV capacity does a commercial poultry farm typically need?＋

Depends on flock size, climate zone and whether the farm is grid-tied, hybrid or off-grid. As an order-of-magnitude reference, a 100,000-bird tunnel-ventilated broiler complex often sits in the 400–600 kWp range once PV is scoped around fan, cooling and lighting loads. We size to your actual single-line diagram — not a rule of thumb.

Does HatchMatch supply solar equipment directly?＋

No. HatchMatch is a vendor-neutral sourcing hub. We route your solar-scoped RFQ to capability-researched PV, battery and hybrid-inverter suppliers and help you compare bids on capacity, warranties, O&M and integration with poultry loads.

Can I finance a solar poultry project through HatchMatch?＋

Financing is arranged through independent third-party partners, subject to their own approval. We can introduce you to partners that finance PV + storage on poultry farms, hatcheries and feed mills; approval terms remain entirely with the financier.

Do you handle off-grid, hybrid and grid-tied solar equally?＋

Yes. RFQs cover rooftop and ground-mount PV, battery storage with BMS, hybrid inverters with genset auto-sync, and grid-tied net-metering setups. You select the configuration in the form and suppliers quote accordingly.

How does solar integrate with tunnel ventilation and cooling loads?＋

Fans, evaporative pads and lighting are the dominant loads on a broiler or layer farm and they line up well with the solar production curve. We ask suppliers to quote PV + storage sized against your ventilation duty cycle, not just annual kWh — so critical loads stay covered when it matters.

How long does it take to get quotes back?＋

Every brief is reviewed by a person; we aim to reply within 2 business days. Supplier response times vary by package complexity.
