Where two suppliers look identical on price, bundle and promotion planning is usually the variable that separates them over a full year.
Checklist
- Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
- Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
- Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.
- Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
- Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
Commercial terms
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (126 units) | Tier 1 | 21-30 days |
| Pallet (741 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (10196 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
