Checklist

Confirm the exact configuration in writing before the deposit is paid.
Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.
Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

Carton (121 units)	Tier 1	7-12 days
Pallet (1712 units)	Tier 2	30-45 days
