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 (196 units) | Tier 1 | 7-12 days |
| Pallet (777 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
