THE BUYING ANSWER

Start with a clear definition.

Identify a physical swatch or other agreed reference and record its code and condition. Screens and photographs help discussion but should not silently replace the approval basis. Keep the reference linked to the selected material.

The decision behind the detail.

A colour may look different on ribbon, plush and woven fabric. Define how each component is compared rather than assuming one digital value settles every match.
