Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind oem and odm programs: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.
Tooling, artwork and certification lead times should be planned at least a quarter ahead.

Volume commitments work best when they are structured as a rolling target rather than a single fixed number.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (83 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1145 units) | Tier 2 | 30-45 days |
| Container (17837 units) | Tier 3 | 30-45 days |
