Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Payment history is the single most reliable route to better terms, more than total annual volume.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (183 units) | Tier 1 | 21-30 days |
| Pallet (953 units) | Tier 2 | 21-30 days |
| Container (16573 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
