Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.

|---|---|---|
| Carton (128 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1220 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (15897 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
