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 (95 units) | Tier 1 | 14-21 days |
| Pallet (1417 units) | Tier 2 | 7-12 days |
| Container (15398 units) | Tier 3 | 7-12 days |
Frequently asked questions
Is freight insurance worth it for Ultra 5 orders?
For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.
How quickly can a repeat order be produced?
For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.
Do you support long term supply agreements?
Yes, rolling agreements with defined review points work better for both sides than rigid annual commitments.
What happens if a batch fails inspection?
The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.
